Centuries from now, at the dawn of a historical epoch filled with both uncertainty and promise, an orphan is adrift in a city on the brink of a great transformation...After rewriting America’s past with his two previous novels, Pulitzer Prize winner Hernan Diaz defies expectations with his third and turns to the future with a novel that examines the place of technology in the American imagination. Combining Dickensian odyssey, family drama, and scientific thriller, Ply poignantly charts the tenuous boundaries of selfhood and the distance that inevitably stands between us and those we love. In conversation with Pulitzer Prize–winning science writer and friend Ed Yong. Doors at 6:30pm.
