Summary
Writers Ian Buruma, Kitty Dukakis, and Larry Tye on this edition of Fresh Air. Buruma's new book is Murder in Amsterdam: The Death of Theo van Gogh and the Limits of Tolerance. It's about the 2004 death of a popular media personality at the hands of a Muslim radical. Buruma found that underlying the brutal event are long-standing tensions between native born Dutch and Muslim immigrants. Buruma was brought up in Holland and Japan. Following a career in acting and dancing, Buruma turned to journalism, and now writes for The New York Review of Books, The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Financial Times, and The Guardian. His previous books include Inventing Japan, Bad Elements, and The Wages of Guilt. Then, former gubernatorial first lady Kitty Dukakis and writer Larry Tye. Their new book is called SHOCK: The Healing Power of Electroconvulsive Therapy. Kitty is the wife of former Massachusetts governor and 1988 Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis. For over 20 years, Kitty battled depression, but she says electroconvulsive therapy dramatically changed her life for the better. Larry Tye is a journalist who wrote for the Boston Globe. He now runs a fellowship program for medical journalists. (Broadcast Date: September 26, 2006)
