It's Election Time!
Come out and hear New York Times Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Carlos Lozada talk about his recent title The Washington Book : How To Read Politics and Politicians.
"Carlos Lozada reads commission reports, the latest Supreme Court decisions, and the most controversial congressional investigations. He also reads books about politicians and by politicians - tell-all books by former White House staffers, campaign biographies that candidates write when they're dreaming of high office, and the revisionist memoirs they write when they leave office.
And in this collection of essays, Lozada makes a provocative argument: No matter how carefully public figures sanitize their experiences, positions, and records, no matter how diligently they present themselves in the safest and most electable light, they almost always reveal themselves. Whether they mean to or not, they tell us who they really are."
The talk is free but registration is encouraged.
