SupportShaman 6: "Hunted," Butt-Eating, Hermeneutics, and Barack Obama's Almonds
The sixth chapter of Shaman by Kim Stanley Robinson, "Hunted," has Thorn, Click, Loon, and Elga fleeing from the northern jende people. It is an absolutely harrowing chapter in which several major taboos are violated--murder, cannibalism, and burial. Matt and Hilary talk about reading and interpreting signs, the state's monopoly on knowledge, and not romanticizing the primitive.
Did Thorn kill Click? Spoiler alert: yes, obviously, c'mon.
