a
recent
After
Words
conversation
between
one
of
last
season's
luncheon
speakers,
Anthony
Cordesman,
and
Washington
Post
correspondent
Robin
Wright.
Both
are
renowned
authorities
on
Israeli
and
Arabic
culture,
and
they
discussed
Ms.
Wright's
latest
book,
Dreams
and
Shadows:
The
Future
of
the
Middle
East.
We're
pleased
to
announce
that
ESU

Club
as
co-host
for
a
midday
gathering
at
which
Ms.
Wright
will
talk
about
and
sign
copies
of
her
volume.
An
experienced
and
articulate
reporter,
Robin
Wright
has
covered
every
country
in
one
of
the
planet's
most
volatile
regions.
In
the
words
of
former
Secretary
of
State
Madeleine
Albright,
"Only
Wright
could
have
written
Dreams
and
Shadows,
because
only
Wright
has
traveled
so
widely,
interviewed
such
diverse
leaders,
and
brought
so
much
wisdom
to
the
region's
many-sided
puzzles."
