The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “The Orphan Master’s Son” talks about trauma, the world of the future, and his new collection of short fiction, “Fortune Smiles.”
In this groundbreaking work, evolutionary biologist Jared Diamond stunningly dismantles racially based theories of human history by revealing the environmental factors actually responsible for history's broadest patterns. It is a story that spans 13,000 years of human history, beginning when Stone Age hunter-gatherers constituted the entire human population.
