The March Get Lit with All Of It selection was the novel A Guardian and a Thief by Megha Majumdar. The novel is set in a future version of Kolkata, India, that has been ravaged by climate change. One family thinks they are set to start a new life in Michigan, but when their visas are stolen, they discover how far they will go to retrieve them. Majumdar joined us for an event at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library.
