Best Of: A Writer Grapples With A Life-Changing Accident / The Post WWII 'Red Scare'

  • Resumen

  • Hanif Kureishi began his new memoir just days after a fall left him paralyzed. He describes being completely dependent on others — and the sense of purpose he's gained from writing. The memoir is called Shattered.

    David Bianculli reviews the British series Ludwig.

    Writer Clay Risen describes a political movement which destroyed the careers of thousands of teachers, civil servants and artists whose beliefs or associations were deemed un-American. His book, Red Scare, is about post-World War II America, but he says there's a throughline connecting that era to our current political moment.
