Sasha Abramsky on the Culture Wars; D.D. Guttenplan on Cornel West; Francine Prose on "Vixen"

Public Libraries are often wonderful places, but they have become targets of right-wing attack in the culture war. Sasha Abramsky reports on the battle in one small town in Eastern Washington state. Also: Cornel West should not run as a 3rd party candidate, but in the Democratic Primaries--that’s what D.D. Guttenplan says – he’s editor of The Nation.Plus: A comic novel about Ethel and Julius Rosenberg?  Who’d have thought that was possible?  Francine Prose has written one:  it’s called “The Vixen,” and it’s terrific.
