Come September (Audio book)

In this acclaimed Lannan foundation lecture from September 2002, Roy speaks poetically to power on the US War on Terror, globalization, the misuses of nationalism, and the growing chasm between the rich and poor. With lyricism and passion, Roy combines her literary talents and encyclopedic knowledge to expose injustice and provide hope for a future world.
