Politics

The Death of Truth
Michiko Kakutani
Winners Take All
Anand Giridharadas


From the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic comes an impassioned critique of America’s retreat from reason. With remarkable erudition and insight, Michiko Kakutani offers a provocative diagnosis of our current condition and points toward a new path for our truth-challenged times.

Former New York Times columnist Anand Giridharadas takes us into the inner sanctums of a new gilded age, where the rich and powerful fight for equality and justice any way they can–except ways that threaten the social order and their position atop it.
