The City We Became Part 2: New York Personified

In this episode, Élaina and Sophia explore the different personalities of the boroughs and reflect on the role of Staten Island in the plot. They consider the instability of race in the U.S. and how Jemisin's book plays with that history. And, as always, Élaina and Sophia share their thematically related book recommendations as they wrap up their discussion of this genre-bending novel.  Please rate and review Bookshelf Remix wherever you listen to podcasts as this helps other people find the show.
