    Horses hold a special mystique: poetry in motion, wildness and discipline in equal measure, an untamed spirit tempered by sculptural beauty and lightning-bolt speed. What if the most beautiful of the world’s horses were to go extinct? Maja Lunde, one of the most celebrated Norwegian authors of her generation, has penned a hugely bestselling series of novels (more than 4 million copies worldwide) called her “Climate Quartet,” each a global story with elements of history, travel, science, and dystopia. Deeply researched and gorgeously written, The Last Wild Horses is the third in the series (after A History of Bees and The End of the Ocean) and moves between places and centuries as three sets of characters strive to save the fabled Przewalski horse, a wild Mongolian breed. Ride off the beaten path with a work of art Booklist calls “another riveting, thrilling, and powerful installment from internationally renowned Lunde.”

    The bookstore partner for this session is Eastwind Books of Berkeley! Buy the books online at Bookshop.org or purchase them in person at the Festival. More information here.

    Book signing information: East Wind Books Tent at the Bookstore Blv (corner of Allston & Milvia in the Outdoor Fair) at in the park, 12:45 PM
