...Obama campaign was quick to pounce. "Even though Senator Clinton said she'd distance herself from her chief strategist for meeting with the Colombian government, we later found out that he's still very much part of her strategy team," Obama spokesman Hari Sevugan said. And there are some on Clinton's own team who say that Penn's continued presence there is not a good idea. Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, her most high-profile supporter in the state, told USA Today that Penn "was just dead wrong" when he accepted the Colombian government business. Asked whether Clinton should sever...

Boyle, Susan Choi, Christopher Sorrentino and Dana Spiotta have all written books about nut-job flower children. And here come two more: Peter Carey's His Illegal Self (Knopf; 272 pages) and Hari Kunzru's My Revolutions (Dutton; 288 pages).

"Love is the ultimate occupation," Lee says. "It's basically what the movie...

Like the first, it returns the Taiwanese native to China for a tale of political intrigue; like the second, it locates the passion, melancholy and power struggles of two complicated people. In a new book that includes the movie's original story, script and comments...
