An evening conversation at the bookshop Lala Books celebrating the launch of Kim Ghattas' new book 'The Best Kind of American'. Ghattas, a journalist and author who has covered the Middle East for more than twenty years, will be in conversation with Clarissa Ward, CNN's Chief International Correspondent. The book is a work of true crime following one American family's search for answers after the 1984 murder of Malcolm Kerr, president of the American University, in war-torn Beirut. The event has sold out, though return tickets may be available by email or on the day, and tickets include complimentary drinks.
