Shortly after the AOL-Time Warner merger deal closed, many of the new company’s top executives sold off huge chunks of their stock – not much in the way of a vote of confidence! Vanity Fair’s Nina Munk gives her perspective on the merger’s spectacular failure. Then a discussion with Shashi Tharoor on India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, and why his ideals of an secular, democratic state are endangered in today’s culturally and religiously divided India. Hollywood screenwriter Joe Eszterhas shares his memoir. And poet, playwright, and editor Joseph Coulson, talks about his debut novel, The Vanishing Moon.
