Incisive essays on Patty Hearst and Reagan, the Central Park jogger and the Santa Ana winds, from the New York Times–bestselling author of South and West. In these eleven essays covering the national scene from Washington, DC; California; and New York, the acclaimed author of Slouching Towards Bethlehem and The White Album “capture[s] the mood of America” and confirms her reputation as one of our sharpest and most trustworthy cultural observers (The New York Times). Whether dissecting the 1988 presidential campaign, exploring the commercialization of a Hollywood murder, or reporting on the “sideshows” of foreign wars, Joan Didion proves that she is one of the premier essayists of the twentieth century, “an articulate witness to the most stubborn and intractable truths of our time” (Joyce Carol Oates, The New York Times Book Review). Highlights include “In the Realm of the Fisher King,” a portrait of the White House under the stewardship of Ronald and Nancy Reagan, two “actors on location;” and “Girl of the Golden West,” a meditation on the Patty Hearst case that draws an unexpected and insightful parallel between the kidnapped heiress and the emigrants who settled California. “Sentimental Journeys” is a deeply felt study of New York media coverage of the brutal rape of a white investment banker in Central Park, a notorious crime that exposed the city’s racial and class fault lines. Dedicated to Henry Robbins, Didion’s friend and editor from 1966 until his death in 1979, After Henry is an indispensable collection of “superior reporting and criticism” from a writer on whom we have relied for more than fifty years “to get the story straight” (Los Angeles Times).
The Flower of Battle is Colin Hatcher's translation of Fiore dei Liberi's art of combat from the early 15th century. The work included high-resolution images and English text laid out in the manner of the original.
“Questa è una storia di compostezza, dignità e di come una famiglia abbia trasformato una tragedia senza senso in un gesto che enfatizza il lato positivo della vita.” - Robert Kiener, Reader’s Digest “Non riesco a pensare a nessun altro libro che superi Il Dono di Nicholas nell’aprire in tutto il mondo i cuori e nel cambiare l’atteggiamento verso il bene comune.” - Bud Gardner, Editore, Chicken Soup for the Writer’s Soul “In questo libro scritto dal padre del bambino, la famiglia Green condivide la sua meraviglia e gratitudine dinanzi all’effusione di emozioni scaturite dal cosiddetto ‘Effetto Nicholas’. Non possiamo fare a meno di sentirci sopraffatti sia dalla tragedia sia dalla suprema compostezza della storia.” - Family Life Magazine “La storia di Nicholas mostra il volto umano della donazione degli organi.... Altamente raccomandato.” - Library Journal “Nessuno al mondo ha fatto di più per accrescere la consapevolezza del pubblico sulla donazione degli organi.” - Howard Nathan, Presidente ed Amministratore Delegato di The Gift of Life Donor Program “Una storia che ha legato una nazione intera al cordoglio di una famiglia.” - Il Messaggero WWW.NICHOLASGREEN.ORG [Please insert photo of Reg Green – as used on back cover of “The Nicholas Effect”] Reg Green è il padre di Nicholas Green, il bambino Americano di sette anni che fu ucciso in una tentata rapita durante una vacanza in Italia con la famiglia.

Waiting for the right guy. Ella Couture didn't mean to save herself. But success runs in the family and Ella, a fiery and self-made interior decorator, never wanted to settle for anything less than a quality man. But another disappointing breakup has Ella flirting with idea of a meaningless fling -- because this whole v-card business has gone on for way too long. When Ella visits her brother Lance for the weekend, she finds herself all alone with his teammate, Radar. The rugged hockey star is tall, chiseled and gorgeous -- and based on his past, he won't get attached. It's a nice fantasy ... but Ella isn't the type of girl to sleep with her brother's best friend. That's what she keeps telling herself, anyway ... Live by the code, die by the code. On the ice, tough guy 'Radar' enforces the code of the game with his fists. And he won't let anyone mess with the team's superstar center, Lance Couture. Radar might sleep around, but he knows to keep his distance when Lance's sister visits the two roommates at their Boston condo. The code has a rule about family members, after all: they're strictly off-limits. Not that Radar's worried about breaking that rule -- he's already heard an earful about how insane his best bud's younger sis is. But Lance never said anything about Ella being a cute babe with an adorable laugh. And he definitely never said anything about how she's finally ready to lose her v-card ... But if Radar can't keep his hands off Ella, not only will he stab his best friend in the back -- he'll ruin everything he's worked for. So why can't he get that girl out of his mind? ---- Forbidden Puck is a 60,000 word hockey romance! This stand-alone novel is the first entry in the Boston Brawlers series. Narrated in alternating first person. No cheating, no cliffhanger, HEA guaranteed.
Jonathan Franzen's Freedom was the runaway most-discussed novel of 2010, an ambitious and searching engagement with life in America in the twenty-first century. In The New York Times Book Review, Sam Tanenhaus proclaimed it "a masterpiece of American fiction" and lauded its illumination, "through the steady radiance of its author's profound moral intelligence, [of] the world we thought we knew." In Farther Away, which gathers together essays and speeches written mostly in the past five years, Franzen returns with renewed vigor to the themes, both human and literary, that have long preoccupied him. Whether recounting his violent encounter with bird poachers in Cyprus, examining his mixed feelings about the suicide of his friend and rival David Foster Wallace, or offering a moving and witty take on the ways that technology has changed how people express their love, these pieces deliver on Franzen's implicit promise to conceal nothing. On a trip to China to see first-hand the environmental devastation there, he doesn't omit mention of his excitement and awe at the pace of China's economic development; the trip becomes a journey out of his own prejudice and moral condemnation. Taken together, these essays trace the progress of unique and mature mind wrestling with itself, with literature, and with some of the most important issues of our day. Farther Away is remarkable, provocative, and necessary.
