Former Washington Post editor Martin Baron joins the L.A. Times Book Club on Oct. 11 to discuss 'Collision of Power.'
Good morning, and welcome to the L.A. Times Book Club newsletter. This month we’ve been talking about power and disruption while reading two timely nonfiction books. Walter Isaacson opened up Sunday in El Segundo about the stories and controversy behind his bestselling biography “Elon Musk.” On Wednesday, former Washington Post Editor Martin Baron will join the L.A.
When Walter Isaacson joined book clubbers in El Segundo on Sunday afternoon, he shared details of the two years he spent shadowing one of his most innovative, unpredictable subjects yet to write “Elon Musk.” Isaacson spoke about the influence of Musk’s abusive father, the billionaire’s pivotal tech role in the Ukraine war, the impulsive decision to buy Twitter and how Musk’s estrangement from his trans daughter helps explain his current politics.
