HAVEL: A LIFE by Michael Zantovsky

Michael Zantovsky spoke about his book, Havel: A Life, at Politics & Prose with former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright on Thursday November 20, 2014.

Vaclav Havel was one of the most prominent figures of the twentieth century: iconoclast and intellectual, renowned playwright turned political dissident, president of a united then divided nation, and dedicated human rights activist. Written by Michael Zantovsky--Havel's former press secretary, advisor, and longtime friend--"Havel: A Life" presents a revelatory portrait of this giant among men and the turbulent times through which he prevailed.
