ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi plunges into a future Bangkok struggling with the repercussions of global calorie crises and widespread genetic engineering. Foreigner Anderson Lake seeks a mysterious new fruit, uncovering secrets tied to the Kingdom's carefully guarded genetic heritage. Amidst political tensions between powerful ministries and the ever-present threat of bioweapons, Emiko, a genetically engineered "windup girl," navigates a precarious existence. The story explores themes of environmental collapse, corporate control over food and resources, and the ethical dilemmas of biotechnology as individuals fight for survival and power in a rapidly changing world.
