FARMINGTON — The University of Maine at Farmington is set to present author Nick Fuller Googins as the first reader of the 2025 spring semester schedule of its Visiting Writers series.

Googins will read from his work at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 13, in the Landing in the university’s Olsen Student Center on South Street.

The reading, free and open to the public, will be followed by a book signing with the author.

His debut novel “The Great Transition” was voted Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Novels 2023 by The Washington Post and earned a Goodreads choice award nomination. In it Googins investigates a post-climate-crisis future in which the resiliency and heavy lifting of a few stakeholders in the past have crafted an unstable Utopia of the future.
