May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and that means Radio Book Club hosts have some great book recommendations by AAPI authors; from dystopian fiction to short stories about collective delusions and a debut thriller. Plus, tune in for a discussion about a nonfiction book wrestling with great artists who have made horrible choices. And, travel to the Arctic Circle with two tales – one historic and one contemporary – that center Sami Reindeer Herders.
