    One of our “greatest living science fiction writers” (The New Yorker ) will show you a view that even his prodigious imagination couldn’t have dreamed up. Kim Stanely Robinson is an environmentalist and bestselling author whose latest masterwork, The Ministry for the Future, was one of Barack Obama’s favorite books of the year. Now he’s bringing us to dizzying heights with his first nonfiction book, the spectacular The High Sierra: A Love Story, a passionately written, visually dazzling hymn to one of the most surreally beautiful natural landscapes in the world. In a multimedia extravaganza with breathtaking firsthand photos and footage, this scribe of worlds unknown, imagined, and witnessed will take you on one of the most incredible hikes of your life.

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