This book club explores dystopia and the post-apocalypse in their bewildering array of forms with our host, NY Times bestselling author Peter Clines.  Yes, we're doomed, but we're doomed together.

WE'VE GONE DIGITAL.

Book clubs are still a thing.  Get your ticket here, email us your address, we'll mail you your book, and then we'll Zoom together and talk about it. (Specific instructions follow after you've got your ticket.)

In Paolo Bacigalupi's epic The Windup Girl, unlikely protagonists fight to save post-apocalyptic Bangkok from civil war and a domineering Western corporation.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

All book clubs require a ticket, and include the book and a dedicated moderator - to keep the discussion on track!

You can get your ticket (which includes us shipping the book to you!) at the link on this page. Please send a mailing address to larkin.lastbookstore@gmail.com

PETER CLINES is a generations-back New Englander (we're talking tall hats and buckled shoes and half-the-population-dies-every-winter generations-back) who broke with tradition and moved to Southern California.

After more than thirty years of writing, fifteen years in the film industry, and six years of writing about writing for the film industry, plus getting several short stories and a novel or ten published (one of which--Paradox Bound--hit the NYT Bestseller list), he feels he has some experience and useful advice to offer.
