Publisher's Synopsis
- Relevant Subject Matter: One Potato's darkly funny approach to timely topics of neocolonialism and anxiety about GMOs-topics mostly left to nonfiction-makes this a unique and important take on climate fiction.
- Compelling Characters: Vivid and compassionately drawn characters are at the heart of One Potato. Eddie comes to terms with his own Cuban-American identity as his journey to the beautiful country of Puerto Malogrado brings him face to face with the morally gray spaces in science, bureaucracy, and class-and the innocent, extraordinary people deeply affected by it all.
- Critically-Acclaimed Author: Tyler McMahon's prose has been praised by USA Today as "Gritty, fast-moving," and Kirkus Reviews as "breathtaking." McMahon deftly balances biting wit and propulsive storytelling in this irresistible satire.
