Lidia Yuknavitch and Kim Fu’s new books are set in reality but…off-kilter realities. In Yuknavitch’s “Thrust,” a girl with the gifts of a carrier travels through water and time to rescue vulnerable figures from the margins of history. In Fu’s “Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century,” the strange is made familiar and the familiar strange. Moderated by Kevin Larimer.
