Greenlight Fiction Book Group discusses The Echo Maker by Richard Powers

Led by former Greenlight staffer Natalie, this group discusses paperback fiction; in 2012, the group will focus on award winners and under-the-radar gems. For April, the Fiction Book Group discusses Richard Powers’ novel The Echo Maker.
