Mahdi ZiaChamani

Farhad, overwhelmed by excessive drinking, escapes the party and takes refuge in the bathroom. Ahmad, Farhad's close friend, joins him there. Both prefer the solitude of the bathroom over the celebration outside, choosing to spend their time in isolation. Ahmad believes the reason their friendship and deep bond have endured since adolescence is "honesty” and “transparency”. However, as they go through their past reflecting on their memories, signs such as mood swings, lack of focus, emotional instability, and particularly drowsiness, exacerbated by alcohol, begin to surface, reshaping their bond in their middle age. Unaware, the party is nearing its end, and the sun is beginning to rise.

Going Big - FDR’s Legacy Biden’s...

Robert Kuttner, Joseph E. Stiglitz

Joe Biden has found his way back to Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal. After four decades of diminishing prospects for ordinary people, the public likes what Biden is offering. Yet American democracy is in dire peril as Republicans, increasingly the national minority, try to destroy democracy in order to cling to power. It is the best of times and the worst of times. In Going Big, bestselling author and political journalist Robert Kuttner assesses the promise and peril of this critical juncture. 
 
 
 
Biden, like FDR in his time, faces multiple challenges. Roosevelt had to make terrible compromises with racist legislators to win enactment of his program. Biden, to achieve the necessary governing coalition, needs to achieve durable multiracial coalitions. Roosevelt had to conquer fascism in Europe; Biden must defeat it at home. And after four decades of neoliberal policy disasters reflecting Wall Street's political influence, Biden needs to go beyond what even FDR achieved, to restore a democratic economy of broad possibility. 
 
 
 
From a writer with an unparalleled understanding of the history and politics that have made this moment possible, this book is the essential guide to what is at stake for Joe Biden, for America, and for our democracy.
