Authors of Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign
October 10, 2017 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
Join PublicSource for an evening with the #1 New York Times bestselling authors of Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign. Hear about how Hillary hobbled her own campaign by the political writers who know her best — Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes — the ones that wrote the definitive HRC biography.
Through deep access to insiders from the top to the bottom of the campaign, Allen and Parnes reconstructed the key decisions and unseized opportunities, the well-intentioned misfires and the hidden thorns that turned a winnable contest into a devastating loss. Shattered offers an object lesson in how Hillary herself made victory an uphill battle, how her difficulty articulating a vision irreparably hobbled her impact with voters, and how the campaign failed to internalize the lessons of populist fury from the hard-fought primary against Bernie Sanders.
Moving blow-by-blow from the campaign’s difficult birth through the bewildering terror of election night, Shattered tells an unforgettable story with urgent lessons both political and personal, filled with revelations that will change the way readers understand just what happened to America on November 8, 2016.
Lecture and Q&A beginning at 7:00 p.m., followed by book signing with White Whale Bookstore at 8:00 p.m. (Private reception at Schenley Park Visitor Center at 6:00 p.m. – $75. Limited preferred seats + book – $40.)
