 War\n\nadvance tickets: $12: T: 800-838-3006  or independent bookstores, 
 $15 door, KPFA benefit   www.kpfa.org/events   \n\nIn SPIRAL: Trapped in 
 the Forever War award-winning journalist Mark Danner offers readers a 
 shrewd analysis of why America's War on Terror has persisted for well over 
 a decade and why it seems to have no end in sight. In this "chilling 
 cautionary tale of Orwellian repercussions" (Kirkus Reviews) Danner 
 describes the ways in which the terrorist attacks of 9/11 have led America 
 into a perpetual and continuously widening war that has put the country in 
 an endless "state of exception."\n\n"Mark Danner's Spiral lays bare the way 
 a jihadist strategy of provocation, playing on America's infinite capacity 
 for oversimplification and overreaction, sucked the United States into 
 endless wars. This is a book that must be read, debated, and deeply 
 understood if we are ever to extricate ourselves from the world of 
 quagmires created by the global War on Terror."  -Christopher Dickey, 
 Foreign Editor of The Daily Beast\n\n"A clear-eyed and shrewd examination 
 of how easily terrorists achieve their goals of inspiring fear and 
 retaliation." -Publishers Weekly\n\nMark Danner has written about foreign 
 affairs and American politics for more than two decades, covering Latin 
 America, Haiti, the Balkans and the Middle East. He was for many years a 
 staff writer at The New Yorker and contributes frequently to The New York 
 Review of Books, The New York Times Magazine and other publications. His 
 work has won many awards, including a National Magazine Award, three 
 Overseas Press Awards, an Emmy and a MacArthur "genius" grant. He teaches 
 at the University of California and at Bard College.. He is the author of 
 Stripping Bare the Body; The Secret Way to War; Torture and Truth and The 
 Massacre at El Mozote.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
