New York 2140 Part Three: "Liquidity Trap,"
Description
In this episode we discuss "Liquidity Trap," Part Three of Kim Stanley Robinson's New York 2140. We talk about the citizen chapters and think about where to locate an authorial consciousness in this book, meditate on the difficulty of locating ourselves in a possibly ungraspable present between the "past" and "future," speculate on the explanatory power of numbers, ask about the status of the police state in the novel, and wonder whether this is a book about finance capital or about property. Among other things.
Thank you for listening! We will be back soon with another episode and then may be more than usually intermittent for a couple of weeks...but we'll see!
