Brookhiser Richard: Glorious Lessons

John Trumbull, Painter of the American Revolution

*GIRL, INTERRUPTED FOR THE 21ST CENTURY* *A JENNETTE MCCURDY BOOKCLUB PICK* 'The story is extraordinary, but more importantly, the storytelling is exceptional... If you read one memoir this year, make it this one.' - PANDORA SYKES 'An impressive feat of writing.' - THE DAILY TELEGRAPH 'Written elegantly with humor and compassion... Alice manages to tell her story with insight and forgiveness for her parents and herself, and we root for them all, all the way.' - SUSAN SARANDON 'I spent a feverish few days devouring it with a mixture of anguish and awe.' - SOPHIE WHITE, IRISH INDEPENDENT 'Mind-blowing' - LENA DUNHAM This exceptional memoir and love story tells of a young woman's harrowing coming-of-age amid glamour, excess, and neglect, and her journey, against the odds, to find herself. Alice Carrière tells the story of her unconventional upbringing in Greenwich Village as the daughter of a remote mother, the renowned artist Jennifer Bartlett and a charismatic father, European actor Mathieu Carrière. Her days are a mixture of privilege, neglect, loneliness, and danger-a child living in an adult's world, with little-to-no enforcement of boundaries or supervision. Alice begins to lose her grasp on reality as a dissociative disorder erases her identity and overzealous doctors medicate her further away from herself. She inhabits various roles: as a patient in expensive psychiatric hospitals, a denizen of the downtown New York music scene, the ingenue in destructive encounters with older men-ricocheting from experience to experience until a medication-induced psychosis brings these personas crashing down. With gallows humor and brutal honesty, Everything/Nothing/Someone explores what it means for our body and mind to belong to us wholly, irrevocably, and on our own terms. In pulsing, energetic prose that is both precise and probing, Alice manages to untangle the stories told to her by her parents, the American psychiatric complex, and her own broken mind to craft a unique and mesmerizing narrative of emergence and, finally, cure. 'Spellbinding' - JENNETTE MCCURDY 'It's extraordinary... make your way to this book.' - SARAH JESSICA PARKER 'Remarkable' - NEW YORK TIMES

The Civil War

From the best-selling author of The End of Your Life Book Club comes a warm, funny, irresistible book that follows an improbable and life-changing friendship over the course of forty years. `Moving. Salted with intelligence and empathy¿ New York Times Book Review `A page-turner¿ New Yorker `Really shines¿ San Francisco Chronicle `Gorgeous¿ Sebastian Junger ------------- Imagine a secret society which pairs you with your polar opposite. You meet regularly. What would you talk about? Could you become friends? Will is bookish, quiet, gay, manning AIDS helplines. Maxey is loud, a wrestler, a Jock, intent on a military life. But paired together ¿ over dinner, beers, pool games ¿ they forge an extraordinary and resilient bond. We Should Not Be Friends is an account of their odd-couple relationship, its ups and downs, twists and turns, the misunderstandings and the trust built over forty turbulent years. ------------- `A rare view of male friendship . . . succeeds because Maxey comes across as a great character, a warm and devoted friend¿ NPR `Schwalbe has an uncanny ability to use his personal experience as a springboard for universal truths¿ Los Angeles Times `A charming read with plenty of surprises. Celebrates not only an unlikely friendship, but the strange turns a life can take¿ Wall Street Journal `Schwalbe¿s memoir shines. Written like a true friend¿ Daily Mail

PRE-ORDER THE PAPERBACK NOW From the best-selling author of The End of Your Life Book Club comes a warm, funny, irresistible book that follows an improbable and life-changing friendship over the course of forty years. 'Moving' NEW YORK TIMES ''Schwalbe's memoir shines...Written like a true friend' DAILY MAIL ------------- in his last year of university, Will thought he knew everyone he cared to know. A per-haired, out gay young man, working at an AIDS helpline in the early days of the crisis, Will found community amongst the theatre students, artists and writers. He also knew who he wanted to avoid: the jocks. Wearing sporty clothes and moving in boisterous packs, the jocks seemed to be a different species entirely, one Will might encounter only at his own peril. All this changed dramatically when Will was brought into a secret society at Yale, aimed to bring together a group of opposites. On his first day, he was faced with Chris Maxey - a physically imposing, loud, star wrestler who seemed to be uncomfortable around Will and embodied everything he disliked and feared. But through months of mandated dinners, and many beers, the two swapped life-stories and forged an unexpected bond that became a ballast in each other's lives for forty years. A real-life The Breakfast Club story, We Should Not Be Friends is a testament to the miracle of human connection, if only we see past our differences.

Tage in Cape May

What happens when the President of the United States engages in criminal activity? He runs for re-election. Donald Trump's campaign chairman went to jail. So did his personal lawyer. His long-time political consigliere was convicted of serious federal crimes, and his National Security Advisor pleaded guilty to several more. Multiple Russian spies were indicted in absentia. Career intelligence agents and military officers were alarmed enough by his actions as President that they alerted senior government officials and ignited the impeachment process. Yet despite all this, a years-long inquiry led by Robert Mueller, and the third Presidential impeachment trial in American history, Donald Trump survived to run for presidency again. Why? Jeffrey Toobin's highly entertaining, definitive account of the Mueller investigation and the impeachment of the President takes readers behind the scenes of the epic legal and political struggle to call Trump to account for his misdeeds. Toobin recounts the mind-boggling twists and turns in the case – Trump's son met with a Russian operative promising Kremlin support; Trump paid a porn star $130,000 to hush up an affair; Rudy Giuliani and a pair of shady Ukrainian-American businessmen got the Justice Department to look at Russian-created conspiracy theories. Toobin shows how Trump's canny lawyers used Mueller's famous integrity against him, and how Trump's bullying and bluster cowed Republican legislators into ignoring the clear evidence of the impeachment hearings. Based on dozens of interviews with prosecutors in Mueller's office, Trump's legal team, Congressional investigators, White House staffers, and several of the key players, including some who are now in prison, True Crimes and Misdemeanours is a revelatory narrative that makes sense of the seemingly endless chaos of the Trump years. Filled with never-before-reported details of the high-stakes legal battles and political machinations, the book weaves a tale of a rogue President guilty of historic misconduct, and how he got away with it.
