Hisham Matar & Viet Thanh Nguyen Discuss To Save and To Destroy & My Friends

Two Pulitzer Prize-winning authors, Hisham Matar (born in New York to Libyan parents) and Viet Thanh Nguyen, discuss their latest works—To Save and To Destroy and My Friends—while exploring urgent aesthetic and social questions. Matar's novel My Friends follows a Libyan protagonist's journey from Benghazi through exile in Britain, while Nguyen's essays examine the outsider in literature and the writer's responsibility in times of violence.
