SUMMARY:Peter Jan Honigsberg  launches his new book A Place Outside the Law: Forgotten Voices of Guantánamo\, 
DESCRIPTION:Peter Jan Honigsberg launches his new book A Place Outside the Law: Forgotten Voices of Guantánamo\, containing firsthand testimonies from Guantánamo Bay\, inspiring future generations to never repeat the human rights violations of the detention center. \n\n\n\n\n“The definitive account of what happened at Guantánamo in all of its chilling and horrifying detail. What makes this book unique and compelling is that it is the story of what it does to people’s lives to create ‘a place outside the law.’ Through his countless interviews\, Professor Honigsberg describes the impact of Guantánamo on those who have been part of it: soldiers\, medical personnel\, lawyers\, interrogators\, torturers\, detainees. It is the story of what happens when a country abandons the rule of law.”–Erwin Chemerinsky\, UC Berkeley\, School of Law \nTo reserve your seat please purchase a copy of A Place Outside the Law by speaking to a bookseller or clicking on the cover below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLaw scholar and Witness to Guantánamo founder Peter Jan Honigsberg uncovers a haunting portrait of life at the military prison and its toll\, not only on the detainees and their loved ones but also on its military and civilian personnel and the journalists who reported on it. \nHonigsberg conducted 158 interviews across 20 countries so that the people who lived and worked there could tell their heartbreaking and inspirational stories. In each one\, we face the reality that the healing process cannot begin until we start the conversation about what was done in the name of protecting our country. These are a few of them. Many alleged operatives in Guantánamo were purchased by the United States for ransom from Afghan and Pakistani soldiers. Brandon Neely\, a prison guard who processed the first group of suspected operatives to arrive in Cuba\, flew to London to embrace the detainees he guarded after leaving the military. Navy whistleblower Matt Diaz covertly released the names of 500 detainees by sending them in a greeting card to a lawyer in New York. Journalist Carol Rosenberg committed the past 17 years of her career to documenting life at Guantánamo. And Damien Corsetti\, an interrogator who came to be known as the “King of Torture\,” received ribbons and awards for the same cruel actions for which he was later prosecuted. \nIn startling\, aching prose\, A Place Outside the Law shines a light on these unheard voices\, and through them\, encourages the global community to embrace humanity as our greatest tool to make the world a safer place. \nPeter Jan Honigsberg is a professor at USF School of Law and the founder and director of Witness to Guantánamo. His research and teaching focuses on the rule of law and human rights violations that occurred in the detention center in Guantánamo\, as well as on the study of terrorism and post-9/11 issues. His books include Our Nation Unhinged: The Human Consequences of the War on Terror and Crossing Border Street: A Civil Rights Memoir. Honigsberg lives in Berkeley. \n

SUMMARY:Elaine Sciolino in Conversation with Thad Carhart discussing Sciolino's new book The Seine: The River that Made Paris.
DESCRIPTION:Elaine Sciolino in Conversation with Thad Carhart (and introduced by L. John Harris) discussing Sciolino’s new book The Seine: The River that Made Paris. \n\n\n\n\nA soulful\, transformative voyage along the body of water that defines the City of Light. Elaine Sciolino is the perfect guide to the world’s most romantic river.”–Lauren Collins \nTo reserve your seat\, please purchase a copy of The Seine by speaking to a bookseller or clicking on the cover. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nElaine Sciolino came to Paris as a young foreign correspondent and was seduced by a river. In The Seine\, she tells the story of that river from its source on a remote plateau of Burgundy to the wide estuary where its waters meet the sea\, and the cities\, tributaries\, islands\, ports\, and bridges in between. \nSciolino explores the Seine through its rich history and lively characters: a bargewoman\, a riverbank bookseller\, a houseboat dweller\, a famous cinematographer known for capturing the river’s light. She discovers the story of Sequana–the Gallo-Roman healing goddess who gave the Seine its name–and follows the river through Paris\, where it determined the city’s destiny and now snakes through all aspects of daily life. She patrols with river police\, rows with a restorer of antique boats\, sips champagne at a vineyard along the river\, and even dares to go for a swim. She finds the Seine in art\, literature\, music\, and movies from Renoir and Les Misérables to Puccini and La La Land. Along the way\, she reveals how the river that created Paris has touched her own life. A powerful afterword tells the dramatic story of how water from the depths of the Seine saved Notre-Dame from destruction during the devastating fire in April 2019. \nElaine Sciolino is a contributing writer and former Paris bureau chief for the New York Times. She is the author of five books\, including The Seine\, The Only Street in Paris and La Seduction. Sciolino was decorated as a chevalier of the Legion of Honor\, the highest honor of the French state\, in 2010 for her “special contribution” to the friendship between France and the United States. She and her husband have lived in Paris since 2002. \nThad Carhart is the author of The Piano Shop on the Left Bank and Finding Fontainebleau. A resident of Paris for 25 years\, he now lives in San Francisco. \nL. John Harris is the author/illustrator of Cafe French. He lives in Berkeley. \n
