Kim Stanley Robinson
Robinson is “generally acknowledged as one of the greatest living science-fiction writers.” – The New Yorker
“the gold-standard of realistic, and highly literary, science-fiction writing.” – The Atlantic
Join us for a conversation and book reading with NY Times bestselling author Kim Stanley Robinson. Robinson has penned more than twenty books, including the internationally bestselling Mars trilogy, and more recently Red Moon, New York 2140, and The Ministry for the Future, which Jonathan Lethem calls “the best science fiction non-fiction novel I’ve ever read.”
Many of Robinson’s novels and stories have ecological, cultural, and political themes, and feature scientists as heroes. He’ll be reading from his latest work, The High Sierra: A Love Story. In it, a departure from science fiction for which he is best known for, he lavishly celebrates this exceptional place, and explores what makes this span of mountains one of the most compelling places on earth. It is a gorgeous, absorbing immersion in a place, born out of a desire to understand and share one of the greatest rapture-inducing experiences our planet offers.
