Steve Israel's Satirical Novel on the Gun Lobby

Former Long Island Congressman Steve Israel discusses his new novel Big Guns. The novel presents a not-so-distant future in which the fight for gun rights hits a fever pitch. In Big Guns, the gun lobby controls the political direction of the U.S., requiring that every American over the age of four carry a gun. What ensues is a discomfiting, hilarious indictment of the current state of American politics.

Steve Israel will be in conversation with Nelson DeMille on May 2 at 7 pm at the Upper East Side Barnes & Noble (86th and Lexington Avenue).

This segment is guest hosted by Alison Stewart.
