A Meal of Thorns 51- THE FIFTH HEAD OF CERBERUS with Premee Mohamed

Science fiction readers love a mechanism, they love a bit of world-building and mystery-solving. Premee Mohamed joins us to discuss Gene Wolfe's The Fifth Head of Cerberus, a book that asks: what if a science fiction book intentionally avoided all of that?
