Does literature influence or reflect politics?  Should fiction tackle subjects such as the expenses scandal or Bernard Madoff's fraud? Are some events simply too overwhelming and terrible to confront immediately? Which novels and plays through history have best captured current events and what do we think is the relationship between literature and politics?  Join some of our best novelists and commentators for what is sure to be a searching discussion.
