When New Yorker editor David Remnick writes a book, he doesn’t shy from big topics, or big subjects. His 1994 book Lenin’s Tomb, about the collapse of the Soviet Union, won the Pulitzer Prize; he’s also the author of King of the World, the story of Muhammad Ali during the civil-rights movement. His latest book, The Bridge: The Life and Rise of Barack Obama, charts the president's evolution from a confused young man to an icon of hope. UW Communication Professor David Domke will discuss the book with Remnick. Presented by Seattle Arts & Lectures.
Tickets are $15 general/$30 patron, at www.brownpapertickets.com, 800/838-3006, or at the door. A reception with Remnick for patron ticketholders will be held from for more information.
