THE AMERICAN DREAM
Larry Samuel's "The American Dream: A Cultural History" relies mainly on period magazines and newspapers to demonstrate that journalists represent as the most valuable resource to recover unfiltered stories of the American Dream. The problem, Samuel claims, is that it does not exist; the Dream is just that, a product of our imagination. 8 p.m. Books & Books, 265 Aragon Ave., Coral Gables. Free.
