On this hour of the Daily Circuit program, an interview with Richard Moe about his book, Roosevelt's Second Act; and Geoff Dyer about his book Zona: A Book About a Film About a Journey to a Room.

In Roosevelt's Second Act, Moe explores the year 1940, what he deems a pivotal year of American history, through Roosevelt's complex character of actions and motivations as he considered pursuing a third term. Moe argues that Roosevelt's third term greatly changed America's foreign policy and changed the way people perceived the presidency.

Zona: A Book About a Film About a Journey to a Room is a scene-by-scene meditation and critical memoir about Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1979 sci-fi masterpiece, Stalker.
