CHARLES FERGUSON

NO END IN SIGHT (Public Affairs, $17.95)

@ Comet Ping Pong, 5037 Connecticut Ave, NW

(on the same block as P&P, same parking lot)

Ferguson, who wrote, directed, and produced the 2007 Academy Award-nominated documentary No End in Sight, has authored a book of the same name that expands upon the issues and facts put forth in the film. The book, and film, chronicles the reasons behind Iraq’s descent into chaos and is a shocking story of wholesale incompetence, recklessness, and venality. Ferguson will talk about the book and take questions. Short clips from the film will also be shown. The event is co-sponsored by Comet Ping Pong, a neighborhood restaurant serving fresh salads and pizza, plus micro brewed beers.
