AOT #526: Paolo Bacigalupi Podcasts The Water Knife

Colorado author Paolo Bacigalupi, the New York Times bestselling author of The Windup Girl and a National Book Award finalist, reads from and discusses the new paperback edition of his critically acclaimed novel The Water Knife. “A fresh cautionary tale classic, depicting an America newly shaped by scarcity of our most vital resource. The pages practically turn themselves in a tense, taut plot of crosses and double-crosses, given added depth by riveting characters. This brutal near-future thriller seems so plausible in the world it depicts that you will want to stock up on bottled water.” — Library Journal, starred review
