New York Times Bestseller Paolo Baccigalupi - Money and Power in the Fantasy Renaissance
Manage episode 429700155 series 2786493
Content provided by How To Academy. All podcast content including episodes, graphics, and podcast descriptions are uploaded and provided directly by How To Academy or their podcast platform partner. If you believe someone is using your copyrighted work without your permission, you can follow the process outlined here https://player.fm/legal.
Renowned as a pioneer of climate fiction, Paolo Baccigalupi's novels The Windup Girl and The Water Knife earned him a reputation as one of the essential speculative novelists of our time, with a prophetic gift akin to established genre masters like William Gibson and Magaret Atwood. His new novel Navola is part of a different tradition: a fantasy novel where historical realism takes precedent over the overtly imaginary, exploring the relationship between family, money, and power in a lightly disgused version of Renaissance Italy. His protagonist Davico di Regulai is the reluctant heir to a Medici-inspired banking empire and the coming-of-age story Baccigalupi tells transports us to another world where contemporary themes reasonate deeply within a thrilling, escapist narrative.
