Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss how Manjula Martin delivers her “personal and pyronatural history” as if reading to a friend. She captures the complications of living in proximity to wildfires in Sonoma County, California, which was devastated by conflagrations in 2020. Her story is part memoir of illness and part accounting of living with massive wildfires and the pandemic. Listeners will learn about the fire itself as well: how it works and how those who deal with it study it, combat it, and learn from it.
