HPU Professor of English Tyler McMahon.
Congratulations to Professor of English Tyler McMahon on the publication of his new book, One Potato. The eBook/audiobook has been released, and the hardcover book will be released on April 26. About McMahon’s novel, an excerpt from the book jacket: “Eddie Morales finds his lowly R&D life completely upended when his Boise-based biotech firm dispatches him to Puerto Malogrado, a tiny but tumultuous country in South America where the international media is accusing their experimental potatoes of causing a bizarre medical crisis. … Darkly funny and compassionately rendered, One Potato charts the crooked line between nature and technology and takes a deep look into a future shaped by disasters both natural and devastatingly man-made.”
