TheWindupGirl

What occurs when bio-terrorism is utilized as a means to generate corporate profits? And what results when this bio-terrorism drives humanity towards the precipice of post-human evolution? Paolo Bacigalupi, an award-winning author, delves into this realm once again in "The Windup Girl", revisiting the world of "The Calorie Man" (winner of the Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award and Hugo Award nominee in 2006) and "Yellow Card Man" (Hugo Award nominee in 2007) to explore these pressing issues.
