Regular 02138 contributor PHILIP WEISS says that new books by SAMANTHA POWER and CHRIS HEDGES (Candles in the Wind) highlight each writers’ ascendancy as a star of the left. “Journalists are usually observers, not actors,” he says. “But they both saw the limits of journalism and became actors.” Weiss writes for New York and the New York Times Magazine and is working on a book about the American army in Australia.
