"American Neolithic: A Novel"

Aired on Wednesday, November 6th.

Our guest is Terence Hawkins, whose second novel, "American Neolithic," was named a Kirkus Reviews Best of 2014. In a starred review, some five years ago, Kirkus called it "a towering work of speculative fiction." This book is now appearing in a revised, newly re-published edition, and Hawkins tells us about it on ST today. As the bestselling novelist Tom Perrotta has noted of this work: "A one-of-a-kind novel, a bizarre but gripping amalgam of anthropology, political diatribe, and speculative science fiction.... Terry Hawkins is a bold and fearless writer." Please note that Hawkins will soon do a pair of events here in Tulsa in connection with this remarkable, dark, funny, and highly engaging novel.
