World Policy Journal Editor David Andelman talks with Lawrence Wright, journalist for the New Yorker and winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Non-Fiction for his book “Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11.” He has fashioned his writings into a one-man show and now an HBO Documentary which premiers on September 7.
Mr. Wright discusses his inside view of Al-Qaeda’s international network and its ties to the fragile status quo in Iraq and Afghanistan. On October 2, his latest one-man stage performance dealing with Gaza—The Human Scale—will make its debut at the New Yorker Festival.
