'The Human Scale' explores life between the bombs in the Middle East

By Lawrence Wright
| The Charlotte Observer Verified
Lawrence Wright likes Big Subjects. Whether in nonfiction or novels, he tackles the 300-pounder fearlessly. That was true in his excellent "Going Clear," an exhaustively reported takedown of L. Ron Hubbard and his Church of Scientology. (Read it - you will never be able to enjoy Tom Cruise in a movie again.) "The End of October" is his 2021 novel about a global pandemic. And he tackles 9/11 in 2006's "The Looming Tower," which won a Pulitzer Prize.

Book Review: ‘The Human Scale,’ by Lawrence Wright

By Lawrence Wright
| Entertainment Mag
THE HUMAN SCALE, by Lawrence Wright There is a verse in the Talmud that reads “Whoever saves a single life is considered by scripture to have saved the world.” This assertion is echoed in Islam. In the Quran, it is written, “If anyone saves a life, it shall be as though he had saved the lives of all mankind.” This parity should come as no surprise.

The Nuns Trying to Save the Women on Texas’s Death Row

By Lawrence Wright
| The New Yorker Verified
One day in 1994, someone left a pamphlet on Ronnie’s windshield describing the duties of a Catholic deacon, along with a note that said, “You may have a calling for this.” In the hierarchy of Catholicism, deacons are typically retired men looking to do meaningful volunteer work. But Ronnie was thirty-eight, growing a business and rearing children. “It certainly wasn’t on my schedule,” he said. The idea took hold nonetheless, and in June, 2000, he was ordained.

Remembering a Visit to Jimmy Carter in Plains, Georgia

|
By Lawrence Wright
| The New Yorker Verified
The Carters lived in a ranch house on the edge of town. We met in the front room, where Carter and his wife, Rosalynn, sat on a couch upholstered in a blue print that matched the curtains. Behind them was a painting that Carter had made of the same room, with its grandfather clock, rocking chairs, and roll-top desk. It looked like an illustration from the children’s book “Goodnight Moon.” Not depicted were two matching elliptical machines that faced the television. Carter was eighty-six at the time.

Our coverage of terrorism is focused mainly on the current “war on terrorism” and the lead up to, and fallout from, 9/11. However, we do have some interviews that take a more general approach. John (Lord) Alderdice, the former Northern Ireland politician, who helped negotiate the Good Friday Agreement chooses his best books on the psychology of terrorism.

The unintended consequences of the Prescription Drug Affordability Board and a threat to specialized medications and minority communities

By Lawrence Wright

Last year, state lawmakers established a Prescription Drug Affordability Board, aimed to increase the accessibility and affordability of healthcare. However, many patients are concerned about the possible unintended effects of this board’s decisions on their medications. There is a genuine risk that specialized drugs and treatments could become unavailable, as the board will determine their availability based on cost restrictions.

A Federal asset tax would impose another barrier to building wealth

|
By Lawrence Wright
| Insight News Verified
President Joe Biden’s budget proposal for 2024 is out and it has some unfortunately familiar pitfalls. The President’s plan again calls for a federal asset tax, a misguided policy that would set countless American families back in their efforts to build a better life for themselves and for future generations. Communities of color should be especially wary of a tax that, at its core, is a barrier to the American Dream.

The Astonishing Transformation of Austin

Unconsciously, during those vagabond years, we were on the lookout for home. I nursed a conception of an ideal community, one that combined qualities I loved about other places: the physical beauty, say, of Atlanta; the joyful music-making of New Orleans; an intellectual scene fed by an important university, as in Cambridge or Durham; a place with a healthy energy and ready access to nature, such as Denver or Seattle; a spot where we could comfortably find friends and safely raise children.

The Death of Ayman al-Zawahiri

|
By Lawrence Wright
| Reader Supported News
In 2002, when I profiled Ayman al-Zawahiri for The New Yorker, he was called “the man behind bin Laden.” But since bin Laden was killed by American special forces, in 2011, Zawahiri has been Al Qaeda’s leader. Zawahiri and bin Laden were very different men, not friends but allies, using each other for the skills and resources they could each provide. Al Qaeda would not have survived without the dynamic they created together.

The Death of Ayman al-Zawahiri Original

By Lawrence Wright
| The New Yorker Verified
Zawahiri, reportedly killed in Afghanistan by a U.S. drone strike over the weekend, was a doctor—a highly-educated professional who chose to devote himself to violent revolution. He formed his first cell, to overthrow the Egyptian government, when he was fifteen years old. In Al Qaeda, he provided the direction, and bin Laden supplied the money. Zawahiri was always in the background, and many people who studied Al Qaeda thought that bin Laden’s death would bring the curtain down on their creation.

The Elephant in the Courtroom

Over Thanksgiving weekend in 1981, Wise attended a meeting in New York of the Society for Animal Rights. The participants were interested in improving welfare laws, but Wise eventually saw limitations in this approach. The caged chickens in the farmers’ market, for instance, were not covered by the Animal Welfare Act of 1966, the main federal law, which excepted from regulation all livestock, as well as birds, rats, and mice used in research.

Lawrence Wright Traces the Parallels Between the Black Death and the COVID-19 Pandemic

Great crises summon profound social changes, for good or ill. The consequences of wars and economic depressions have been amply studied; those of pandemics, less so. I thought to look at the past through the eyes of Gianna Pomata, a retired professor at Johns Hopkins University. After retiring, Pomata returned to her hometown, the old city of Bologna. When we first spoke, on March 27, 2020, she and her husband had been locked down for 17 days. Italy was in the teeth of the contagion.

‘Year of the Plague’: The New Yorker explores America’s continuing tragedy

In October, 2019, the first Global Health Security Index appeared, a sober report of a world largely unprepared to deal with a pandemic. “Unfortunately, political will for accelerating health security is caught in a perpetual cycle of panic and neglect,” the authors observed. “No country is fully prepared.” Yet one country stood above all others in terms of readiness: the United States.

A Syrian Filmmaker, Disappeared

In Syria, the government completely controls the culture. The repression isn’t just secret policemen and soldiers in the street. It is near total domination of all forms of art and communication. Filmmaking receives special oversight. Ironically, Syria has produced a small but significant body of important films, often shown in international festivals and all financed by the government, but they are rarely seen in Syria itself, because of the regime’s fear of public gatherings.

Five Best: Lawrence Wright on Pandemics in Fact and Fiction

By Lawrence Wright
| The Wall Street Journal Verified
A Distant Mirror By Barbara W. Tuchman (1978) 1. The subtitle of this marvelous history is “The Calamitous 14th Century.” Barbara Tuchman intended the mirror in the title to reflect the disasters of her own calamitous era, the 20th century. She chronicles the Hundred Years’ War, the Papal Schism and enough other disasters to justify the subtitle, but the defining event of the century was the arrival in Sicily, in October 1347, of a flotilla of Genoese trading ships.

Essay March 12, 2020 My new novel, “The End of October,” which comes out next month, is a work of imagination.
