Conversation with Azar Nafisi and Kate Tuttle, who writes about books for the Boston Globe and heads the paper’s books coverage.
What is the role of literature in an era when one political party wages continual war on writers and the press? What is the connection between political strife in our daily lives, and the way we meet our enemies on the page in fiction? How can literature, through its free exchange, affect politics? Author Azar Nafisi answers these and other questions in her book Read Dangerously. Join Nafisi and Boston Globe reporter Kate Tuttle in conversation about the power of literature throughout history and in today’s troubled times.
