Once in a House on Fire

It's 1996, and Jeremy has met the British boy of his dreams - just as, amid a media frenzy, US Congress prepares the Defense of Marriage Act, denying same-sex couples federal rights, including immigration. The pair snatch time in forests and deserts, London fashion shows, Berlin sex clubs and East Village hotel rooms. Finding no other way to stay together, they shack up illicitly among unlikely allies in San Francisco. Deep House moves through the couple's domiciles while unlocking doors to a lineage of gay men who have come before - smuggling a foreign partner through national checkpoints or going public to stand up for the right to get down in the privacy of their own homes. They include hapless criminals, sexpot bartenders, friars, pirates, government workers who subvert the system and activists who go all the way to the Supreme Court. Juxtaposing disclosures of undocumented domesticity with courtroom drama to explore myriad forms of intimacy, Deep House is at once a historical kaleidoscope and the innermost tale of two boyfriends who made a home in the shadows of a turbulent civil rights battle.

The Gayest Love Story Ever Told

Deep House

Routledge Revivals

First published in 1985, in this book Malcolm Barnes, the editor of Augustus Hare's autobiography, tries to elucidate: a man who wrote much about others, but little of consequence about himself in spite of the longest 'story of my life' in the English language.

Victorian Gentleman

Augustus Hare

PRE-ORDER THE SPELLBINDING MEMOIR NOWOne of the world's bestselling storytellers, Lesley Pearse writes brilliantly about survivors. Why? Because she is one herself . . . Born during the Second World War, Lesley's innocence came to an abrupt end when a neighbour found her, aged 3, coatless in the snow. The mother she'd been unable to wake had been dead for days. Sent to an orphanage, Lesley soon learned adults couldn't always be trusted. As a teenager in the swinging sixties, she took herself to London. Here, the second great tragedy of her life occurred. Falling pregnant, she was sent to a mother and baby home, and watched helplessly as her newborn was taken from her. But like so many of her generation, Lesley had to carry on. She was, after all, a true survivor. Marriage and children followed - and all the while she nurtured a dream: to be a writer. Yet it wasn't until at the age of 48 that her stories - of women struggling in a difficult world - found a publisher, and the bestseller lists beckoned. As heartbreaking as it is heartwarming, Lesley's story really is A Long and Winding Road with surprises and uplifting hope around every corner . . .

My Autobiography

The Long and Winding Road

Candid and instantly engaging, this will be the go-to introduction to Lynne Tillman for readers everywhere and is a must have for any fan. A breakthrough for the legendary underground icon, who speaks about her life as a writer and her work in a stunning and candid conversation with writer and critic Taylor Lewandowski. A book length interview with Lynne Tillman, beloved icon of underground American literature, that spans memoir, scrapbook, cultural criticism, and history in a lively, compact package. Critic Taylor Lewandowski strings together her many lives and worlds, from a Long Island childhood, to her colorful Downtown NYC life in the 1970’s and 80’s, to her psychoanalytical fiction, to her historicizing New York City with Stephen Shore's Factory photographs and Jeannette Watson's Books &amp; Co., to her “Madame Realism” art criticism. Lynne Tillman has devoted her life to using language as a tool to synthesize the chaos of our world into intricate, fragmented pieces about perception, gender, photography, family, American history, and much more, and this pocket-size primer is a fascinating narrative unto itself that will be the jumping off point to her vast oeuvre from now on. Anyone with a passing interest in 20th century culture will find fascinating her run-ins with the likes of Simone de Beuvoir, Méret Oppenheim, Charles Henri Ford, Andy Warhol, Lou Reed, John Cale, Paula Fox, Barbara Kruger and Kathy Acker, just to name a few. Her enthusiasm, curiosity, and humor serve as a refreshing model, or in her words, an "image" which has created an alternative path for writers. As she says in the interview, "I know myself in relation to others." Featuring beautiful, full color photographs and contributions from Andrew Durbin, Emily LaBarge, and Claire Donato, this is the ideal introduction into the encyclopedic, obsessive mind of Lynne Tillman.

A Conversation with Lynne Tillman

The Mystery of Perception

A Memoir

Always Home, Always Homesick

From the acclaimed biographer of explorers Magellan, Columbus, and Francis Drake comes a unique exploration of life and influence of Jules Verne, the novelist whose mind spun the greatest adventures ever told and whose daring and prescient imagination sparked a lasting transformation of modern society and technology, inspiring everyone from J.R.R. Tolkien to Kurt Vonnegut to Jeff Bezos.&nbsp;"We are all, in one way or another, the children of Jules Verne." -Ray BradburyHis stories inspired the greatest literary minds-J.R.R. Tolkien, Kurt Vonnegut, Ursula K. le Guin. He inspired real-world expeditions and discoveries, compelling undersea explorers, aviation pioneers, and astronauts to seek out the unknown. He's one of the most widely translated authors in the world, outmatched only by Agatha Christie and Shakespeare. Jeff Bezos's rocket factory includes a two-story replica of the spaceship from one of his novels. Few writers have left such an enduring legacy on the world as Jules Verne. Widely considered the "father of science fiction," Verne stands as the ultimate icon of inventiveness and applied imagination. His novels-including such revered classics as&nbsp;Around the World in 80 Days&nbsp;and&nbsp;Journey to the Center of the Earth-not only thrilled and entertained, but also predicted innovations and technological advancements that in time would become everyday realities. Brimming with intellect, science, adventure, and paradoxes, his work dared to imagine a world beyond the limits of what was thought possible and, in turn, inspired future generations to achieve the unthinkable.&nbsp;&nbsp;From acclaimed biographer Laurence Bergreen,&nbsp;Jules Verne and the Invention of the Future&nbsp;is an engaging, vibrant, and richly researched account of a singular visionary who profoundly shaped our modern world.&nbsp;
