About this listen

Over twelve novels and two collections, Lydia Millet has emerged as a major American novelist, writing vividly about the ties between people and other animals and the crisis of extinction.

Her exquisite new novel, the first since A Children’s Bible, tells the story of an Arizona man’s relationship with the family next door, whose house has one wall made entirely out of glass. The story delivers attraction and love, friendship and grief. But Millet also evokes the uncanny. Through close observation of human and animal life in the desert, she captures the daunting scale of human society without losing sight of the real difference one person can make in the world.

Written with humor and benevolence, Dinosaurs asks big questions: Can a person be good? Can a man be good?

Compellingly told, emotionally moving, and intellectually rich, Dinosaurs may be Millet’s finest novel yet.

My second book of 2023 and what a delight it was. The complexity of the protagonist matches perfectly with the simplicity and domesticity of the story. Excellently narrated and masterfully performed. Would recommend!

Nice descriptions at times, but a lack of storyline or any dramatic tension, great for sending you to sleep.
