Damascus

Best-selling author Joshua Mohr¿s work has been chosen as a New York Times Book Review Editor¿s Choice. Here he takes listeners to 2003 San Francisco as the country divides into groups for and against the Iraq War. Damascus, a dive bar in the Mission District, becomes the unlikely setting for a showdown between the opposing sides. Tensions come to a boil when the bar¿s proprietor agrees to host a show by an ambitious artist with a flair for the dramatic.
