Bengali Science Fiction - past to the present

Hello everyone,

Malka Older is a writer, aid worker, and sociologist. Her science-fiction political thriller Infomocracy was named one of the best books of 2016 by Kirkus, Book Riot, and the Washington Post.

This Friday, at 7:30 PM, Vijaya and Gautham chat with Malka to discuss The Centenal Cycle, and how her personal politics influences her work.

The Centenal Cycle - part of Malka Older’s Hugo nominated series of Infomocracy, Null States and State Tectonics - is a brilliantly imagined future, in which is ‘Information is Power’. It takes on a much more literal meaning. Complex, farsighted, and featuring a diverse cast of characters, the books in the series seamlessly blend the push and pull of global politics - as radically reimagined microdemocracy - with the thrill and excitement of an unputdownable spy thriller.
