Lessons on Building a Beautiful Life

From the long-tenured head Goldman Sachs - an institution legendary for its culture of success - comes a candid memoir of global leadership in an age of extreme turbulence. 'Lloyd Blankfein is scary smart about people, markets, and life generally. His 10,000 Small Businesses idea proved to be a huge winner, and I personally witnessed the time and effort he devoted to its success. During the 2008-2009 financial crisis, Lloyd acted decisively, and he tells the story of what happened with unique insights.' WARREN BUFFETT 'Lloyd Blankfein has always been a straight shooter, but his journey from public housing to the heights of Wall Street wasn't a straight line. Streetwise is packed with important lessons about leadership, risk-taking, decision-making, and giving back.' MICHAEL BLOOMBERG When Lloyd Blankfein was attacked as a Wall Street fat cat, he had to smile, thinking of his precarious childhood in the notorious public housing projects of East New York, Brooklyn, and attending a high school so chaotic he didn't feel safe leaving class to go to the bathroom in his time there. Harvard University was a total moonshot, and his outsider status never wore off, there or at Harvard Law. When he struck people as street-y, it wasn't Wall Street they were thinking of. But if the chip never quite left Blankfein's shoulder, neither did a wry, resilient spirit and a lucid, democratic intelligence that saw through airs and found talent and ideas in unlikely places. Streetwise is a delightfully honest, sharp and often very funny reckoning with Blankfein's education - in finance, human nature and the workings of the world. It abounds with lessons about leading teams of brilliant, aggressive, competitive people and harmonising them around shared goals; changing when times are hard and when they're good; managing risk; and knowing a crisis is at hand before it swamps you so you can guide your team to the further shore. Blankfein is famed for his calm hand on Goldman Sachs's tiller during the global financial crisis, and that story is told in full here, among many other decisive episodes. A powerful blueprint for the wise stewardship of a cause that is larger than yourself, Streetwise will inspire and inform readers throughout the global business community and beyond.

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! •&nbsp;A READ WITH JENNA TODAY SHOW BOOK CLUB PICK&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;A heartbreaking, empowering, often hilarious debut memoir about a mother’s all-consuming love, a son’s perilous quest to discover the world beyond the front door and the unregulated homeschool system that impacts millions like him *A BookRiot Best Book of the Year* *A&nbsp;BookPage&nbsp;Memoir of the Year* *A Top 10 Amazon Book of the Month Pick* *A Washington Post&nbsp;Book to Read in January!* *A&nbsp;Library Journal Big&nbsp;Book of the Week!* *A BookRiot&nbsp;Best New Nonfiction of January!* Stefan Merrill Block&nbsp;was nine when his mother pulled him from school, certain that his teachers were “stifling his creativity.” Hungry for more time with her boy who was growing up too quickly, she began to instruct Stefan in the family’s living room.&nbsp;Beyond his formal lessons in math, however, Stefan was largely left to his own devices and his mother’s erratic whims,&nbsp;such as her project to recapture her twelve-year-old son's early years by bleaching his hair and putting him on a crawling regimen. In this “stunning debut memoir” (Jenna Bush Hager, The Today Show), Block beautifully reflects on his experiences in both traditional and at-home education systems, delving into: <ul> <li>The inception of the homeschooling movement and its massive rise throughout America</li> <li>Early memories of Block’s mother, and a poignant look into their dysfunctional mother-son story</li> <li>Block’s reentry into the public school system, both jarring yet insightful, and the bullying he withstood</li> <li>His emotional journey towards forgiveness, love, and hope as he becomes a parent himself</li></ul> At once a novelistic portrait of mother and son, and an illuminating window into an overlooked corner of the American education system,&nbsp;Homeschooled&nbsp;is a moving, funny and ultimately inspiring story of a son’s battle for a life of his own choosing, and the wages of a mother’s insatiable love. Praise for Homeschooled "One of the most beautiful books I've ever read."—Jenna Bush Hager “Absorbing.”—Washington Post “A revealing and deeply empathetic portrait of a complex relationship between mother and son.” –BookPage, starred review “Astonishing.”—The New York Post "Clearly told with the steadiness of a masterful writer."—Isaac Fitzgerald

The Helsinki Trilogy

'A Finnish masterpiece of autofiction... Saisio's Helsinki trilogy is a dreamy, complex and therefore so very human portrait of the formation of a great artist' Financial Times A riveting, funny coming-of-age story: the second volume in Pirkko Saisio's award-winning Helsinki trilogy Teenaged Pirkko can't decide which she hates most: God, her communist father, or her growing breasts. Grandpa has moved into the room long promised to her, and Mother, overworked and distant, tries to keep the peace between her headstrong daughter and husband. It's 1960s Finland and Pirkko has fun getting into trouble. That is, until her teacher suggests she might have what it takes to be a real writer. Then the historic summer of 1968 arrives, which Pirkko spends working at a Swiss orphanage where no one understands her and, as much as her family drive her mad, she's homesick for the first time. As the world shifts and swirls around her, Pirkko must make sense of it all - including her own sexual identity. A funny, unique coming-of-age story and an intimate portrait of a life lived in language, Backlight is the second volume in Pirkko Saisio's award-winning Helsinki trilogy.

Backlight

'"I liked the Jewish jokes," she says. "Oh, it's OK", I say. "I'm allowed to make them." Her eyes light up. And so it all begins.' When Max meets Eliana, a dazzling modern Orthodox Jewish girl, in a bar in Edinburgh one night, he never expected it to kickstart an agonising identity crisis. While their connection is instant and deep, Max discovers a devastating truth: that despite his upbringing, to millions around the world, including the girl he's fallen for, he is deemed non-Jewish. Determined to build a future with her, comedian and writer (and uncircumcised liberal Jew) Max Olesker embarks on one of the world's most demanding religious conversion processes. He attempts to navigate the dizzying complexities of Jewish law, the challenges of maintaining a relationship without physical contact, and the looming prospect of a date with a scalpel. From moving into the home of an Orthodox family for eight months to enduring gruelling interrogations by a high court of Rabbis, Max's journey is a rollercoaster of humour, heartbreak, and self-discovery. A hilarious and moving true account of one man's quest to marry the love of his life, Making the Cut will make you laugh, cry, and believe in the transformative power of love.

An Unorthodox Love Story

Making the Cut

'An excellent look at what Palantir does, as well as a fascinating insight into the mind of its eccentric chief executive' TelegraphPalantir Technologies is the most interesting company in the world -&nbsp;and the most controversial.&nbsp;Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the U.S. government in the war on terrorism - an early investor was the CIA - Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the U.S. military, the National Health Service in England, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to healthcare to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century.&nbsp;Its billionaire CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he's a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir's work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp's close friend and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel.&nbsp;In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger is the first to tell the story of Alex Karp and Palantir from the beginning. Steinberger offers new biographical details and a rich psychological portrait of the man leading one of the world's most secretive companies. Full of revelations, this is an urgent and insightful book about technological power, the surveillance state and the future we all face.

The Philosopher in the Valley

A path for building wealth from the self-made Jamaican-Canadian billionaireWhat are the odds that a boy born into poverty on a small Caribbean island in the 1950s would rise to become one of the world’s few Black billionaires—standing alongside global icons like Michael Jordan, Oprah Winfrey, Jay-Z and Rihanna? Against staggering odds, Michael Lee-Chin did exactly that.In The Way of Wealth, Lee-Chin tells the extraordinary story of how discipline, patience and clear principles—not luck—shaped his ascent. Born in Jamaica, he arrived in Canada in 1970 to study civil engineering, only to pivot years later into financial advising. What followed was a bold bet on himself: he acquired a struggling mutual fund company for $200,000 and transformed it into a financial powerhouse managing more than $15 billion in assets at its peak. Today, his business empire includes financial services, insurance, tourism, agriculture, consumer goods and services, real estate development, energy and targeted radionuclide therapy.At the heart of Lee-Chin’s journey is a simple, disciplined “recipe” he has followed for decades—one that guided every major decision and protected him through volatility, risk and uncertainty. In The Way of Wealth, he distills those hard-won lessons into clear, practical principles anyone can apply, regardless of background or starting point.This is a book about more than money. It’s about conviction over impulse, patience over speculation and building real, meaningful wealth one deliberate decision at a time. No matter where you are today, The Way of Wealth offers a path forward and a reminder that prosperity is not inherited, it can be built.

'Trousers down from page one ... NSFW' THE TIMES 'The gayest book ever written' HENRY HOKE, author of Open Throat 'Daddy's diary fully delivers' JEREMY ATHERTON LIN, author of Gay Bar -------------------------------------------- With his trademark wit, candour and relentlessly perceptive eye, Edmund White, the beloved 85-year-old 'paterfamilias of queer literature' (New York Times) delves unflinchingly into the aspect of his life which has inspired so many of his masterpieces: sex. Documenting everything from covert fumblings in the repressed American Midwest of the 1950's to the Arcadian gay debauchery of New York in the 1970's; through the terror of HIV and the age of sex on the apps, White has seen - and experienced - it all. Unyieldingly honest, outrageously raucous and arrestingly touching, The Loves of My Life can but further cement White's unquestionable role at the apex of the gay canon. -------------------------------------------- 'A pointillistic canvas of gay desire and male sexuality' RALF WEBB, GUARDIAN 'Juicy, ebullient and ecstatic' OBSERVER 'Wry, hilarious, moving and brilliantly unreserved' SEÁN HEWITT, author of Open, Heaven
