Books Reading Tonight: Why So Serious?
Posted by Paul Constant on Wed, Sep 1, 2010 at 10:22 AM
First up is Judith Armatta at Elliott Bay Book Company. Armatta is the author of Twilight of Impunity: The War Crimes Trial of Slobodan Milosevic. It is a book about the trial of a horrible human being who was literally one of the worst people in the history of the world.
If you are sick about reading about our depressing past and would instead like to read about our depressing future, Town Hall Seattle is the place for you. Matthew Kahn, the author of Climatopolis: How Our Cities Will Thrive In The Hotter Future, will discuss the topic discussed in the subtitle of his book. Hopefully, he will also discuss how his readings in rural America have gone.
The full readings calendar, including the next week or so, is here. And if you're planning on staying in and you're looking for personalized book recommendations, feel free to tell me the books you like and ask me what to read next over at Questionland.
