It’s the first day of school here in New York City and it’s gotten me in the mood to catch up on some reading. Luckily, two of Mondo’s favorites have new books worth checking out.
The first is Max Blumenthal’s expose of the Republican Party Republican Gomorrah. Nation Books describes it as "a bestiary of dysfunction, scandal, and crime from the heart of the movement that runs the Republican Party." Sounds juicy. I haven’t had a chance yet to read the whole thing, but if you’re familiar with Blumenthal’s work then you have an idea of what to expect. Here’s a peek:
Also new is an update on Antony Loewenstein’s important book My Israel Question. Now in its third edition, Loewenstein has updated the book to include as in depth look at the Israeli attack on Gaza in the winter of 08/09, and how the ongoing debate over Israel/Palestine is playing out in Australia.
