"This Great Hemisphere" ($26, originally $29)

"This is Askaripour's second novel and it is a brilliant adventure set 500 years into the future where the political and social landscape is dictated by whether or not someone is born invisible or visible. It's a tricky concept to wrap your head around at first, but with skill and sensitivity, Askaripour draws us into this new world so that the reader is able to see the ways that privilege is allocated to those with the most power and the ramifications of that for the rest of us. I loved everything about this novel. It had my heart pounding at times. It made me think. It made me consider concepts like family and genetics and destiny. I want everyone to read it!"

— Danielle Prescod, author of "Token Black Girl"
