Kim Stanley Robinson and I discuss The Wild Shore, the first volume of his Three Californias triptych. We discuss how his career started, the inspiration for both this novel and the entire triptych, and most of all the novel itself - a post-apocalyptic narrative in which most of America has been destroyed, and what's left is a frontier lifestyle just waiting to be described in the manner of Mark Twain.
