The arrival of the G8 and G20 later this month to Ontario has a lot of Canadians upset – and those who aren’t are welcome to read some books. Canada’s largest bookstore chain has a display of books to read to learn about the complexities of what the G20 is all about.
It’s a good list of books that you should take a look at. Are there books you’d like to see on the list?
The book chain has created a reading list and series of G20 tables in its stores across Canada to “promote dialogue,†said Bahram Olfati, Chapters’ vice president for adult trade.
“You see people such as Bono talking about giving aid to Africa. We have included the book Dead Aid by Dambisa Moyo, which says this aid isn’t really helping,†said Olfati. “It is one of my favourite books on the tables.â€
With subheads such as “Outlaw Literature,†the tables are the product of a series of roundtable discussions among Chapters executives and staff to cover G20 issues from the left, right and centre, said Olfati.
But each store has the leeway to add to the table. And the one Chapters store inside the yellow security perimeter in downtown Toronto for the summit of 20 world leaders this month has decided to include titles by Chomsky, a long-time outspoken critic of U.S. foreign policy, and a few on Guevara, including Che: A Memoir by Fidel Castro.
