The brink of war : inside the Reagan-Gorbachev weekend that changed the world by November 03, 2026
What really happened during the extraordinary 48 hours when Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev came face-to-face at the height of the Cold War, with the world standing on the brink of nuclear showdown? "A riveting history of one of the most important moments of the Cold War. Adelman has written a page-turning narrative that leaves us on the edge of our seats." -Ken Burns In October 1986, as tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union pushed the world to a dangerous cliff, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev arrived in Reykjavik, Iceland, for what was expected to be an empty grip-and-grin session. Instead, over that one weekend, the two leaders engaged in a series of high-stakes negotiations that fundamentally altered the course of history. Former arms control director and top Reagan aide, Ken Adelman, delivers the gripping inside story of the Reykjavik summit and the remarkable 48 hours that launched: 1) a precipitous decline in nuclear arsenals, 2) new emphasis on defenses against missiles (and later drones), and 3) actions which led to the end of the Cold War and to the collapse of the Soviet Union. Filled with astonishing behind-the-scenes in a desolate Icelandic house reputed to be haunted, The Brink of War reads like a political thriller while revealing the high drama of a hugely consequential meeting. Inside the haunted halls of Hofdi House came tense emotional clashes between two larger-than-life figures, Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev. At Reagan's side, top policy advisor Ken Adelman takes readers inside the room where the future of the world hung in the balance. Drawing on newly declassified documents, personal experience, and decades of hindsight, he reveals how Reykjavik reshaped superpower relations and changed history forever. Part historical revelation, part eyewitness memoir, and part warning for today's time, The Brink of War is a timely and riveting account of presidential leadership, contrasting ideologies, and the fragile line between peace and catastrophe. If you love a gripping story of political events, Cold War intrigue, political maneuvering, and dramatic episodes that changed the world, this is a book you cannot miss. Buy The Brink of War: Inside the Reagan-Gorbachev Weekend that Changed the World today and discover the extraordinary weekend that helped change the course of history.
The flight nurses' war : the American women who saved thousands of lives at Iwo Jima and Okinawa / ; by November 03, 2026
The unsung story of heroic World War II combat nurses sent into the battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa to save thousands of American soldiers and Marines The Pacific Theater was the setting for some of World War II's bloodiest battles, and yet much of its history remains untold. As the war in Europe was winding down, fierce Japanese resistance and mounting casualties slowed the US advance toward Japan. The terrible death toll of doctors, medics, and corpsmen forced the United States Navy to deploy combat nurses to contested airfields, where they triaged desperately wounded men and evacuated them to safety. In The Flight Nurses' War, award-winning historian Leah Garrett traces the lives of eight nurses from their small-town origins to the devastation of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. They risked their lives on rickety, unpressurized aircraft and braved constant enemy assaults. As the battles intensified, Army nurses were also deployed to hospital ships and the infantry front- line, where they endured disease, snipers, and Kamikazes. Successfully evacuating thousands of wounded men from danger, the combat nurses freed up troops to secure both islands and help win the war. Uncovering an extraordinary story of Second World War heroism, The Flight Nurses' War powerfully brings to life the remarkable women who risked everything to save lives and assure America's success in the Pacific campaign.
True North : on the road in Canada by November 03, 2026
Acclaimed, bestselling author and travel writer Paul Theroux turns his gaze to Canada in a sweeping, personal journey. For more than half a century, Paul Theroux has traveled the globe and chronicled its far corners with curiosity, wit, and an unflinching eye. With True North, his twelfth travel book, he turns that eye to a country that has long been his quiet neighbor: Canada. What begins as the completion of a North American road trip trilogy becomes something more personal. Theroux traces his own ancestral connection to Quebec, where his forebear Antoine Theroux arrived in the 17th century. Theroux meets his Quebcois friends and relations, then travels more widely through remote villages, multicultural cities, and sweeping landscapes that have defined modern Canada. Along the way, he speaks with farmers, refugees, writers like John Irving and Michael Ondaatje, and Indigenous leaders such as Tanya Talaga, listening as Canadians reckon with identity, belonging, and patriotism, often in response to the jabs and provocations of their southern neighbor. From snowbound Ottawa at the height of political protests to the Viking settlement at L'Anse aux Meadows, from Toronto's "ethno-burbs" to Vancouver's Pacific gateway, True North is a panoramic portrait of a vast country both familiar and elusive. It is also a meditation on kinship, migration, and the resilience of a people shaped by history, geography, and challenging weather. With the empathy of a companion and the sharpness of a cultural critic, Theroux delivers a timely, vivid travel narrative that reveals Canada as never before--diverse, unsettled, and alive with stories.
In the shadow of eight : surviving the reality of my childhood by November 03, 2026
Collin Gosselin, one of the sextuplets from Jon & Kate Plus 8, breaks his silence to share the shocking story of abuse hidden behind the facade of a picture-perfect family. For years, the world watched Jon & Kate Plus 8 through a lens of curated joy. But while the cameras captured the milestones, they missed the moments that defined Collin Gosselin's life: the Christmas morning where the gifts were reclaimed as soon as the cameras went down, and the basement room where silence was his only companion. In the Shadow of Eight is the first account of a secret childhood lived in the gaps between the frames. Collin is finally sharing the truth about the "help" that held him down, the basement cell where he was hidden for years, and the cocktail of powerful antipsychotics forced on an eleven-year-old boy. This is a reckoning with the dark side of fame: the systems, the entourage, and the institutions that looked the other way while one boy was erased. This is the never before told story of how he escaped and found his way back from the dark.
In my own time : a memoir by November 03, 2026
In the vein of Patrick Stewart's MAKING IT SO and Henry Winkler's BEING HENRY, a larger than life memoir from Christopher Lloyd, the beloved star of Back to the Future and Taxi, that follows him through his lonely childhood in an exorbitantly wealthy family, experiences breaking into acting, time recovering from addiction, and his path to figuring out his creative identity, which would influence his roles in the many films of his illustrious, wide-ranging career. Christopher Lloyd grew up largely in isolation on the sprawling estate of Waveny in Connecticut, the scion of the wealthy Lapham family that founded Texaco. His early life wandering those vast grounds, being raised by governesses, seeing his mother institutionalized, and attending an upper crust boarding school all combined into a shy, lonely childhood, and for a long time he felt more comfortable on his own than with others. It wasn't until he fled that life of privilege and found his voice on stage that he found the connections he'd missed out on - connections that would eventually include journeymen actors and Hollywood greats like Jack Nicholson, Charlie Kaufman, and Meryl Streep, as Christopher made his way in the worlds of film, TV, and Broadway. TIME WILL TELL is the intimate memoir of a singular actor. In his own elegant prose, Christopher brings readers along on his unique journey to fame, sharing never before told stories from his unusual upbringing to his famed roles in some of the biggest films of the 21st century: Taber in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, the loveable, eccentric Jim Ignatowski onTaxi, and the iconic Doc Brown in Back to the Future franchise. He delves deeply into his training as a stage actor at the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York, his early career on Broadway, the loves of his life, his hard-fought journey to sobriety, and, of course, his time on the sets of now-classic films. With charm and honesty, Christopher's memoir reveals the thoughtful soul behind some of the most beloved larger than life characters to ever grace the silver screen.
The vanishing family : love, fate, and the quest to end dementia by November 03, 2026
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Valley Road comes the heart-wrenching journey of a family facing a tragic genetic destiny, set against the scientific search for hope for all of us who fear losing our selves to dementia None of us knows how our story will end, or what shape we will be in by the time the end comes. Here, however, is the story of a family filled with people who do know -- or could know. Each family member has a 50-50 chance of inheriting a genetic mutation that causes frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a cruel disease that emerges in middle age. As more and more family members begin to show symptoms, The Vanishing Family offers an intimate exploration of the family's emotional journeys and relationships, and the difficult decisions they face as they confront their genetic fate. Through first-rate reporting and compassionate storytelling, Kolker brings to life the experiences of those in the family who are afflicted by FTD and those who are not. Interwoven with this devastating narrative is the relentless search for a cure--and a glimmer of hope that FTD research could also help us understand more common forms of dementia like Alzheimer's. The decision of whether to get tested for the genetic mutation looms over all members of the family, surfacing a haunting question: if you were going to lose yourself--in a year, or two, or ten--would you even want to know? The Vanishing Family is a powerful allegory for our anxieties about aging and the unknown, offering a roadmap through the unthinkable.
Food is medicine : healing our bodies, nourishing our minds, and transforming our food system by November 03, 2026
An urgent indictment of the food we eat, how it is making us sick, and the choices that led us here, and a call for a revolutionary new food system that can mend our health, economy, and planet, from a world-renowned expert in nutrition, medicine, and public policy The food we eat is making us sick. In the United States and around the world, diet has become the leading cause of illness and premature death, from obesity and diabetes to heart disease and other chronic ailments. Advocates of healthier diets pin the blame on overeating, but the bigger issue is what we undereat—the dearth of food that nourishes and heals. Harnessing the power of the right foods can do more than prevent illness; it can treat it, extending life while reducing the crippling cost of ill health to our communities and economy. Food Is Medicine shows the way, from transforming our own diets to keep us healthy to getting the right foods from our farms, into our stores and onto our plates—all while eating plentifully and pleasurably. A global authority, uniquely positioned on the front lines of nutrition science, medicine, and public policy, Dariush Mozaffarian, MD, DrPH draws on cutting-edge research to turn complex science into a clear, actionable program to end the health crisis in our homes and communities. Excavating the decisions that led to a broken food system, plagued by the harms of ultraprocessing and ruinous to the environment, he lays out how the meals we eat are damaging our bodies. He reveals the medicinal, healing power of ideal nutrition and introduces the innovators who are pioneering solutions—at the doctor’s office, in supermarkets, in the halls of Congress, and above all for individuals, to empower them to access the foods they need to live well. With clarity and optimism, braiding storytelling, science, and practical wisdom, Food Is Medicine lays out a vision for a twenty-first century food system that will restore health, nourishment, and equity without sacrificing convenience or choice. In the process, these solutions can revitalize our economy, and even help to heal our planet.

The world beneath our feet : the hidden life of soil and why it matters to us all by November 03, 2026
A vivid tour into the subterranean that encourages us to look downwards, revealing how the earth's most biodiverse frontier sustains all life above the soil surface The ground beneath us hums with a staggering abundance of winding roots, interconnecting fungal networks, wriggling creatures, and mind-blowing microbial life. This hidden ecosystem is the single most biodiverse habitat on the planet. Over half of all the Earth's species exist underfoot, where decaying matter is transformed into new life; just a handful of soil can contain an entire world. Without soil, there would be no life as we know it—and yet we rarely take the time to know the countless lives happening below. In The World Beneath Our Feet, soil ecologist Frank Ashwood dives deep into this precious ecosystem, spanning the globe from the frozen landscape of Greenland to the black soil deposits of the Amazon and the Eurasian Steppe, while also examining the jaw-dropping evolutionary adaptations that make lives very alien from our own possible. Unearthing soil layers one at a time, Ashwood reveals every sublayer to be a distinct macrocosm, teeming with organisms essential to our planet's wellbeing. Supported by interviews with global soil biologists, as well as his own expert research, Ashwood shows us how life at a microscopic scale impacts us all. Powerfully illuminating the dark depths of the earth, and accompanied by the author's own up-close photography, which magnifies and reveals creatures only millimeters long, The World Beneath Our Feet opens our eyes to the hidden and wondrous world of soil—perhaps the greatest unexplored frontier on our planet.

The ballad of the fugitive William Parker : a true tale of love, murder, treason, and ordinary folks who saved America by November 03, 2026
For fans of Master Slave Husband Wife and Django Unchained comes the extraordinary forgotten story of an event known in its day as “the first shots of the Civil War,” from the New York Times bestselling author of Dr. Mütter’s Marvels. The year, 1851. The place, a Quaker farming community turned Underground Railroad stronghold, where a Maryland enslaver had journeyed in pursuit of four men who’d fled his plantation years before. In a few hours, he’d be dead…and twenty-seven men from the village of Christiana would be rounded up and put on trial. Not for his murder, but for treason—for waging war against the United States, at a time when it was a crime against the government to obstruct an enslaver looking to reclaim his “property.” This is story of what happened in Christiana that September morning—and in the ensuing “trial of the century,” which saw the president himself advise the prosecution on strategy and a sitting congressman serve as lead attorney for the defense. But The Ballad of the Fugitive William Parker is also a much larger tale, one spanning decades, following a whole startlingly diverse community of abolitionists in their fight to convince their fellow Americans of the subversive idea that now found itself on trial: that the nation ought to live up the ideals it was founded on, and respect all men as equals. It’s a story that whisks readers from the quiet farmlands of Lancaster County—where a self-emancipated man named William Parker, whom legend had it bullets could not kill, rallied his neighbors to ride out each night to battle the slavecatchers who stalked their countryside—to Philadelphia’s genteel Society Hill, where socialite Harriet Forten Purvis had the ear of the mayor (and a cellar filled with fugitives). It’s stylish, propulsive, intimately human tale of bravery, ingenuity, and hope—and of ordinary people with little in common who came together to stand against injustice…and won.
Ladies' man : the careless heart of John F. Kennedy by November 03, 2026
From the New York Times bestselling author of Capote’s Women, a penetrating examination of President John F. Kennedy’s complicated, tumultuous life as told through the lens of the fascinating women he loved John F. Kennedy was a born leader—bold, charismatic, and able to charm with nothing more than a witty phrase and a winning smile. He was also obsessive, manipulative, and haunted by complex desires for shiny, remarkable women, collecting them voraciously and carelessly, then dismissing them summarily, on his rise to the White House. But these women were perhaps the only witnesses to the real JFK—and it’s time their stories were finally told. Bestselling biographer Laurence Leamer knew three of Kennedy’s mistresses, and Ladies’ Man reveals JFK’s harrowing, intimate life with unprecedented access. From youthful indiscretions at boarding school, early connections with such beautiful aristocratic European women as Inga Arvad and Gunilla von Post, marriage to the stately Jacqueline Bouvier, romances with Pamela Turnure and Diana de Vegh, liaisons with mafia moll Judith Exner and East German spy Ellen Rometsch, to his relationship with Marilyn Monroe shortly before her death, JFK’s affairs were multifaceted and often tragic. His cautious public persona contrasted sharply with his reckless personal life, where he took bewildering chances that could have destroyed his presidency. No one who reads Ladies’ Man will ever think about John F. Kennedy the same way again.
The six minute war : Reagan, Russia and the race to automate armageddon by November 03, 2026
The New York Times bestselling author of One Minute to Midnight Michael Dobbs reconstructs the thrilling inside story of the climactic nuclear crisis of the Cold War, revealing the tension between “the human in the loop” and the algorithms that could trigger World War III. The year is 1983. Ronald Reagan is obsessed by biblical prophecies of Armageddon. A computer revolution is changing everything—from the way we track incoming ballistic missiles to how we share and consume information. And then, over just three months, a series of dramatic events encapsulates the president’s worst nightmares. In rapid succession, a South Korean airliner is shot down over the Soviet Union after straying off course because of pilot-computer miscommunication. A glitchy Soviet early warning system mistakenly reports an incoming US missile attack. The Kremlin puts its nuclear forces on high alert in response to a routine NATO nuclear release exercise. Reagan deploys missiles capable of destroying the Kremlin in six minutes from their launch positions in West Germany. Soviet nuclear submarines are stationed off Cape Hatteras, ready to obliterate the White House in the same amount of time. “Six minutes to decide how to respond to a blip on a radar scope and decide whether to unleash Armageddon!” Reagan recalled many years later, in a little-noticed passage in his memoirs. “How could anyone apply reason at a time like that?” In The Six Minute War, the former Moscow bureau chief for The Washington Post explores the challenge confronting fallible human leaders responding to ever-shrinking warning times of a nuclear attack. A nail-biting narrative of the Cold War crisis that heralded the fall of the Soviet Union, The Six Minute War poses an existential question: can we trust the machines at such life-or-death moments—or will we be destroyed by our own technological hubris?
Abandoning a cat : a personal story by November 03, 2026
A moving reflection on the author's father—plus a cat!—this is a beautiful short work of family history from one of our most beloved, iconic writers. Originally published in the New Yorker in 2019, and now presented in a full, unabridged form, Abandoning a Cat is a poignant, self-reflective work by Haruki Murakami. Here he writes about his father, the son of a priest who might have become a priest himself had a clerical error not sent him into the second world war. Murakami's father wrote accomplished haiku and eventually became a teacher. As Haruki grew older -- as he became an adult and then a writer, he and his father found they had little in common. They were later estranged for twenty years, only reconciling on his father's deathbed. This haunting personal essay is a reflection on what it means to be a father and what it means to be a son -- on what it means to be loved and to be abandoned -- and also on a particular moment of Japanese history, through the aftermath of the second world war on into the present. Murakami fans may find common themes from beloved novels such as Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle -- but will also be surprised by the raw honesty of this beautiful autobiographical piece.
First light : sailing solo but not alone by November 03, 2026
A thrilling memoir from the first American woman to race a sailboat solo, nonstop around the world. “A must-read for every young woman with a dream.”—BILLIE JEAN KING “Brauer’s strength and resilience inspire us to challenge ourselves to venture out of our safe harbor and experience the high seas of life.”—CHRISTIE BRINKLEY In 2024, Cole Brauer became the first American woman to race solo around the world, in a forty-foot sailboat named First Light. For 130 days, she navigated mechanical breakdowns, debilitating food poisoning, and the Southern Ocean’s extreme cold. Yet, amid the isolation, she found breathtaking sunrises, impromptu dance parties, and a life-changing sense of peace. First Light recounts the intimate details of this historic circumnavigation, but it isn’t the typical story of conquering the elements. Instead, it is a memoir of a woman who moved into the most remote environment on Earth and made herself a home. For years, Brauer navigated the rigid hierarchies of a traditionalist sport, facing a relentless tide of skepticism from a world that often tried to ground her before she even left the dock. Out at sea, she didn’t just race 27,000 miles; she proved her critics wrong, reframing one of the world’s most grueling solo races as an act of joyful resistance. First Light is a reckoning with what it means to belong—in a male-dominated field, in a high-speed world, and within yourself. Unfiltered, exhilarating, and deeply personal, it is a testament to the resilience required to stay true to yourself when the world wants you to stay small. Brauer invites us all to find presence in a noisy world, believe in the impossible, and see the horizon not as a boundary but as a hearth.
Actually, nevermind : essays by November 03, 2026
In person : how working together fuels creativity, productivity, and growth by November 03, 2026
“A crucial book for this moment.”—Walter Isaacson, New York Times bestselling author of Steve Jobs “Essential reading for anyone who leads a company or team today.”—Amy Edmondson, Professor of Leadership and Management at Harvard Business School and author of Right Kind of Wrong Finally, the science-backed guide to making the most of in-person work—whether it’s one day in the office or five—drawing on the authors’ original research as featured in Science, NPR, HBR, The New York Times, and more. For the first time in history, millions of workers can do their jobs from anywhere—and the result is the most contentious workplace debate in generations. Employees fight to protect their freedom. CEOs issue return-to-office mandates by gut instinct. Everyone argues, but no one has the data. Until now. Harvard-trained economists Natalia Emanuel and Emma Harrington are leading researchers on remote and in-person work. They've spent years tracking millions of work hours across industries, analyzing Fortune 500 firms, startups, tech companies, and call centers. Their findings? Remote work is good for crossing tasks off a to-do list, but can erode the quality of our work, stifle creativity, and hurt mental health. When we're together, our brain-to-brain synchrony increases 10x, accelerating creativity, mentorship, and innovation. That’s why Pixar animators, Nobel Prize winners, and Silicon Valley founders have come up with their best ideas face-to-face with one another. Working side-by-side can be a powerful force to supercharge company performance. But many office policies miss this mark, focusing on butts in seats, instead of brains in sync. Emanuel and Harrington offer solutions on how to craft the right policy. Backed with the latest research on the science of work, In Person offers tactical steps to make the most of in-office time, covering: How to calculate the right number of on-site days for your specific organization The playbook for preserving employee flexibility without losing the power of being together Why some RTO mandates fail spectacularly–and how to succeed After years of confusion, animosity, and conflicting mandates, In Person finally delivers the answers in a clear, evidence-based roadmap for making smarter decisions with your most valuable resource: your people.

Bestselling author and transformational speaker Ryan Leak shares research-based strategies for working with even the most challenging people to create more collaborative and productive teams. Who is the most complicated person you work with? You probably don’t have to think very hard to answer that question. You already know their name, their job title, their quirks, and their flaws. You have firsthand experience with the mental and emotional fallout they leave in their wake. You’ve seen the problems their complexity creates for everyone on their team. You wish you could fix them, solve them, ignore them, or teleport them to a parallel dimension. But you can’t. You have to work with them. (You could quit, but your next job will have a complicated person waiting for you.) That means you need effective strategies to collaborate with (nearly) anyone. Especially the picky, prickly, problematic ones. Drawing from his global consulting experience with teams and leaders from the glitz of sports and entertainment, to the number-crunching world of finance, to the meticulous realms of insurance, pharma, and manufacturing, Ryan Leak provides proven strategies for… Seeing challenging individuals as human beings to understand rather than problems to solve Detoxing unrealistic expectations and getting comfortable with complicated Learning to communicate effectively in complex environments Embracing healthy disagreement as a tool to discover better solutions Setting boundaries that let people into your world without letting them run your world “The process of learning to collaborate with difficult individuals is transformative—it’s a gateway to greater creativity, stronger teams, and increased productivity,” Leak explains. “On the other side of complicated is the wonderful, wide-open world of effective collaboration and a workplace you love.”

Esther Choi picked hers up from her halmoni, or grandmother, who used her hands for everything from smearing cabbage with pepper paste to make kimchi to crumbling tofu for mandu (dumpling) filling and tossing vibrantly flavored noodles for japchae. Hand taste starts with seasoning but ultimately describes a way of cooking rooted in heritage, intuition, and heart. Here, Choi offers delicious entry points to Korean and Korean-American cuisine, with foundational techniques alongside quick weeknight recipes and show-stopping traditional spreads. Hand Taste is as instructive as it is expressive, with recipes like Kalbi Jjim, Japchae, Kimchi Mac & Beef, Halmoni's Jeon, and Korean Fried Chicken Wings. There's something for everyone--whether you know Choi from her beloved restaurants Mokbar and Ms. Yoo, her presence on Food Network, or her infectious online personality. So much more than a guide to mastering Korean cooking, Hand Taste teaches you to trust your gut and cook with curiosity and joy.

Adult children of emotionally abusive families : overcoming the pain, dysfunction, and trauma of growing up in a toxic family by November 03, 2026
A groundbreaking guide from a leading expert on emotional abuse that reveals how one person’s harmful behavior can ripple through an entire family. From bestselling and internationally recognized expert and therapist Beverly Engel comes Adult Children of Emotionally Abusive Families, the first comprehensive book to explore how emotional abuse doesn’t just affect couples—it shapes entire family systems, often damaging children in ways that last a lifetime. With decades of clinical experience and a compassionate, empowering voice, Engel exposes the unseen epidemic of emotional abuse in families, where tension, control, criticism, and shame become normalized, and every member suffers the consequences. While emotional abuse is finally being discussed in popular culture, Engel makes the urgent case that we still aren’t talking enough about its impact on children—and how parents, both the abusive and the abused, may be unconsciously perpetuating cycles of harm. Through real-life case studies, questionnaires, checklists, and healing exercises, she provides an accessible roadmap for recognizing toxic dynamics, stopping the spread of abuse, and most important, helping victims who were or are still being emotionally abused by their families to heal. While a strong and healthy family can provide a sense of protection and security for its children, what happens when, instead of being a port in the storm, families become the storm itself—bombarding the children with constant conflict and trauma? This is what this much-needed book is about. Whether you witnessed your parents emotionally abusing one another, are a victim of an emotionally abusive parent, or the victim of a sibling who passed the abuse on to you, Adult Children of Emotionally Abusive Families will offer you the support, validation and concrete tools you so desperately need in order to heal. And if you are an abusive or abused parent or sibling who passed the abuse on to others in your family, this book will offer you compassion and understanding to help you begin to make changes that can alter your life and the lives of those in your family.

No land to stand on : notes from detention by November 03, 2026
A revelatory and powerful testament of protest, courage, and imprisonment in America’s deportation regime “Are you Mahmoud Khalil?” The question marked the start of a politically charged odyssey that took the Palestinian graduate student and legal resident from his pregnant wife and home in New York City, transported him across the country, and locked him up in a Louisiana detention camp under threat of deportation. His “crime”: exercising his right to free speech at Columbia University, where he emerged as a leading voice against the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. No Land to Stand On is his indelible account, the story of a man confronting the reality that he had become target number one in a lawless regime shredding basic rights. Drawing on his prison diary and writing in vivid, page-turning detail, Mahmoud Khalil conjures the despair and cruelty of ICE detention, where prisoners can vanish overnight and visiting families risk their own deportation. There is humanity, too, in the men’s acts of care—their mutual help with documents, the prison cake they make after Mahmoud can only follow the birth of his son on the public payphone. In tandem, he tells the multi-generational story of a family expelled from Palestine to a Syrian refugee camp, of flight from Assad’s regime to Lebanon, of arrival in an America that promised permanence and protection, and of the enduring struggle for Palestine. A work of courage and resistance, No Land to Stand On is a call to integrity, to staying true to one’s life’s mission, and to defending the inalienable right to safety, freedom, and a land to stand on.
Notes on a blacklash : when a Black woman goes viral by November 03, 2026
The veteran White House correspondent follows up Black Women Will Save the World with a gripping, soul-baring, and deeply personal examination of online misogynoir--specific and relentless online bullying attacks based solely on race and gender. Notes on a Blacklash is veteran White House reporter April Ryan's gripping, soul-baring look at what happens when the world suddenly turns its full attention on you. This isn't just the story of one viral moment with President Trump. It's about the avalanche that follows: the scrutiny, the emotional and physical toll, and the way your identity can become fuel for headlines and hashtags. April pulls back the curtain on what it truly costs to be seen and what it takes to survive it. With vulnerability and power, she recounts the moments that made her go viral, not because she chased attention, but because she showed up authentically. Her presence, her truth, and her refusal to shrink under pressure struck a chord and sparked cultural firestorms. From a high-stakes press room showdown to the history-making decision by Vice President Kamala Harris, from the public disrespect of Stevie Wonder to the slap heard around the world, April explores how race, gender, and power collide in a world addicted to outrage and instant opinions. At its core, this book explores visibility--its price, its power, and the fight to reclaim your story when millions are watching. What does it mean to go viral when your hair is politicized, your voice is policed, and your very existence is treated as a threat? Sometimes, this is what it feels like when the spotlight finds you: uninvited, unrelenting, and impossible to ignore.

The greatest story ever told by November 03, 2026
Written in the style of Bear's book True Grit, this debut piece of fiction writing is gripping and visceral, immersing the reader in the sights, sounds and smells of first-century Roman-occupied Palestine. 'Prophets, middle-eastern and far-eastern astrologers had foretold this man's life for many hundreds of years. A coming king who would hold the very keys to the kingdom of heaven itself. Yet into first-century Judea - a province of the Roman Empire - came an impoverished refugee, born into a time of turmoil and into a people living under the fear and oppression of one of the most brutal and expansive empires ever to have existed. He eventually became a renegade. To others a redeemer. How he lived - his words, his actions - arguably altered the world for ever. Those who were threatened by him were convinced he was the devil himself. Yet those who spent the most time with him, often the outcasts and forgotten, called him the Lamb of God. But his local name was Yeshua.
The stones cry out : Biblical archaeology, prophecy, and the last days by November 03, 2026
EVERY STONE PULLED FROM THE GROUND CONFIRMS WHAT THE BIBLE ALREADY SAID. If it got the past right, with that kind of precision, then its words about the future cannot be ignored. Dinesh D'Souza first traveled to Israel in 2022. He stood at the Pool of Siloam where Jesus healed a blind man. He walked the Pilgrimage Road that Jesus walked. He looked out from the ruins of King David's palace at those very rooftops. And one question stopped him cold: not theological, but factual. IS ANY OF THIS ACTUALLY TRUE? Not on the level of faith, on the level of evidence? And if it's true, why isn't anyone shouting it from the rooftops? He went back. Again and again. Three years of excavations, expeditions, and conversations with archaeologists pulling from the ground things the evening news never covers. What he found cannot be fabricated. NO ONE FABRICATES FOOTNOTES. Two minor officials appear once in the Book of Jeremiah: they throw the prophet into a muddy cistern and vanish from the text. Twenty-six hundred years later, their personal clay seals come out of the ground in Jerusalem. If the people nobody remembers are real, everything else is real too. That is how this book works. Not from the general to the specific. From evidence to evidence, until the verdict becomes impossible to dispute: The seal of King Hezekiah The seal of the prophet Isaiah, found inches away The stone bearing the name of Pontius Pilate The ossuary of the high priest Caiaphas The house in Nazareth where Jesus grew up The site of His execution and burial Nineteen chapters. Thousands of years of biblical history. One conclusion: the Bible is historically accurate, and it can be proven. Then D'Souza asks the question the final chapter was written to answer. IF THE BIBLE IS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED, WHAT DOES THAT TELL US ABOUT WHAT IS STILL TO COME? While he was documenting the past, the prophecies about the future were already coming true: Israel exists again, for the first time in two thousand years, exactly as Isaiah and Ezekiel foretold The gospel has reached every nation on earth For the first time in human history, every person on the planet can witness the same event at the same moment Everything that was predicted is happening now. The stones proved the past. The same Word describes what comes next, and in the final chapter, D'Souza shows that the prophecies that once seemed distant are already being fulfilled through signs unfolding around us, examined with the same evidentiary precision he brought to every artifact. IF THE BIBLE IS RIGHT ABOUT THE PAST, AND IT IS, THEN ITS WORDS ABOUT THE FUTURE CANNOT BE IGNORED.
The midlife plot twist : how to reboot your life without burning it down (even if you really, really want to) by November 03, 2026
It's not a midlife crisis--it's a midlife plot twist! Packed with honest, insightful, and deeply relatable advice for anyone who has reached that middle point of life, this humorous and practical guide rejects the outdated cliché of the midlife crisis, instead offering a fresh, empowering vision for any woman in her 40s or 50s looking for reinvention, courage, and clarity. Welcome to midlife--where your body is totally unpredictable, your career is ever-evolving, and your search history now includes, "Can I pull off bangs at 45?" This is not another menopause book; this is also not a book about how to "manifest," "visualize," or "self-actualize" your way into a better life. This book is for those of us who burst into our 20s with only a Cosmopolitan magazine education about how to be a grown-up and have now reached that middle stage of life and are wondering what's next. The Midlife Plot Twist is for women who are truly ready to figure out what they want that second chapter of their life to look like. This is a smart, funny, and deeply relatable guidebook for women trying to navigate every part of their life with humor, honesty, and heart. From forgotten passwords to rediscovering passions, it's a laugh-out-loud reminder that the middle years aren't something to survive--they're something to celebrate. Using expert advice, exercises, and analysis to help readers figure out how they landed where they are now, authors Lindsay Goldwert and Gabrielle Moss offer practical information and guidance about values and goals as it pertains to love and sex, money and career, and friends and family. Part pep talk, part permission slip, and 100 percent relatable, readers will laugh, nod, and feel seen. Because if midlife has taught us anything, it's that the only way forward is with grace--and a great sense of humor.

Blockers : rebels in the deep state by October 27, 2026
An inside look at the early days of Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, as told by the public servants it targeted and one of America’s best storytellers. Blockers. It wasn’t a compliment. In the new Washington, it was the worst thing you could be—especially if you worked in the federal government and wanted to keep your job. A Blocker was a holdover, an impediment, someone who didn't get the message—and, most of all, someone who didn't belong. Michael Lewis found six of them. Blockers is the story of people who believed they had a calling, who were convinced they were doing something the country couldn’t do without, and then discovered they were no longer wanted. One kept Americans’ most sensitive tax data out of the wrong hands and another made sure that politicians and civil servants played by the rules. One figured out how to stop wildfires from destroying suburban neighborhoods, another helped uncover the mysteries of cystic fibrosis. There was also a security guard. It should come as no surprise that the writer who made subprime mortgages gripping (The Big Short) and who turned baseball statistics into poetry (Moneyball) could transform the first two years of the second Trump administration into a thriller about federal employees. But he does. And he does something else. He puts before us a clear question: If these public servants can’t survive in government today, then what does that say about us?

They shall not see the dawn : the manhunt for the Third Reich's most wanted by October 27, 2026
MAY 1945. THE REICH IS IN RUINS. Hitler is dead. Yet for the US Army’s Counter Intelligence Corps, the real war has just begun. They Shall Not See the Dawn is the true historical thriller by bestselling historian Charles Lachman that follows a unit of American agents, drawn from every walk of life, hunting Hitler’s dangerous henchmen still at large. It was a race against time to capture World War II’s most notorious Nazis before they could vanish or rally a new resistance. The CIC men were college students, linguists, an actor, young draftees, and refugees armed with guns, intellect, intuition, and sheer daring. Their quarry included Ernst Kaltenbrunner, the Gestapo chief; Julius Streicher, Hitler’s “Jewbaiter”; Robert Ley, master of slave labor; and other war criminals desperate to escape justice. Against all odds, the CIC brought them down, ensuring their places in the dock at Nuremberg. Upon the eightieth anniversary of the Nuremberg hangings, They Shall Not See the Dawn resurrects America’s “G-men in khakis,” the men who ensured that the architects of Nazi horror would never walk free.

Looking for Terry : a memoir by October 27, 2026
"Red meat for gridiron devotees, with plenty of dish on the biz.” —KIRKUS REVIEWS Terry Bradshaw explores what it really means to be Terry Bradshaw. For more than fifty years, Terry Bradshaw has been one of the most recognizable figures in American culture. A Hall of Fame quarterback who led the Pittsburgh Steelers to four Super Bowl victories, Bradshaw didn’t fade quietly into retirement. Instead, he reinvented himself—again and again—as a movie and television actor, a beloved NFL broadcaster, and a larger-than-life personality whose humor and self-deprecation made him a household name far beyond football. In Looking for Terry, his first memoir in more than two decades, Bradshaw finally pulls back the curtain on the persona the public thinks it knows. With trademark candor and wit, he examines how a reputation for being “not too smart” followed him throughout his career—and how he learned to embrace it rather than fight it. By leaning into the jokes, Bradshaw discovered that humor could be both a shield and a superpower. The result was the goofy, always-game-for-a-laugh Terry Bradshaw that fans came to love. But behind the punchlines was a more complicated man, one who sometimes felt trapped by the very character he helped create. This memoir is not just a reflection on fame and perception; it’s an unflinching look at vulnerability. Bradshaw opens up about his struggle with depression, his deeply personal battle with cancer, and the role his faith played in carrying him through his darkest moments. This memoir is raw, moving, and unexpectedly tender, revealing a side of Bradshaw rarely seen on television. By turns hilarious, heartfelt, and deeply inspiring, Looking for Terry is a story about resilience, reinvention, and the courage it takes to tell the truth about yourself—even when the world thinks it already knows who you are. Readers will laugh right along with Terry and ultimately come away with a deeper appreciation for the man behind the legend.

What to remember when you are forgetting : how to live and thrive with memory loss, Alzheimer's, and other dementias by October 27, 2026
Media darling and director of Memory and Healthy Aging at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Dr. Zaldy Tan’s What to Remember When You Are Forgetting shares the definitive guide to thriving with dementia for the recently diagnosed and their caregivers. What if a dementia diagnosis could be an invitation to live? What if the first phase of the disease could be a catalyst to embrace a long-forgotten dream? Or to finally resolve a festering family conflict? Or to make new friends and create new, cherished memories? Renowned memory and Alzheimer’s disease specialist, researcher, educator, and author Dr. Zaldy Tan, the Harvard-trained director of the Cedars-Sinai Memory and Healthy Aging Program, shares the definitive guide to thriving with dementia. On these pages, you’ll meet patients like Angela, who had worked as a singer in a Hollywood lounge before her children were born and dreamed of stardom. Instead, Angela put her dreams aside to raise her family. But after her diagnosis of early-onset dementia, instead of shutting down or continuing to prioritize others over herself, Angela embraced her career anew and traveled the country performing with a local singing group. You’ll also meet Marcel, who considered Alzheimer’s as a wake-up call to recalibrate his life priorities, and Mary-Louise, who didn’t have family nearby to rely on but found an advocate in a new friend she met in a writing group. With an incredibly thorough and deeply comforting approach, Dr. Tan tackles everything from how to have a conversation with a person experiencing early memory loss, to how to prepare for an initial assessment for Alzheimer’s, and what accommodations and interventions are needed for every stage and type of dementia. He delves into the surprisingly hopeful research on new treatment and caregiving resources everyone should know, and reveals how other families and remarkable individuals he’s treated over the years have handled both difficult challenges and incredible triumphs after diagnosis.
Gouged : the end of a fair price--and what that means for your wallet by October 27, 2026
American made : stories of work from the WPA by October 27, 2026
During the Great Depression, out-of-work writers were hired by the federal government to interview American working-class workers about their jobs. What was it like working in a meatpacking plant in Chicago? To make a living as a Portuguese fisherman in Massachusetts? A farmer in Nebraska? A Polish ironworker building the New York City subway? The result of this project was over 2,000 first person written accounts of working life, from as many workers, many of whom were first generation immigrants. Those interviews were laboriously catalogued and digitized by the Library of Congress, and a representative slice are presented to you here. American Made is the engaging, sometimes brutal, always personable stories of workers, told in union halls, at crowded kitchen tables, and during breaks: reading them is both like watching a period drama and peeking into a diary. The book lays bare the immigrant journeys and working lives of those responsible for the nation's 20th century manufacturing and economic prowess. Through this book you will learn what has changed in America since then--and what has not. With an introduction by Kim Kelly, author of Fight Like Hell: The Untold History of American Labor.

Stand, fight, win! : our battle for the soul of America by October 27, 2026
Into the quiet : following Jesus in a world of noise by October 27, 2026
A profound exploration of the ache for quiet in a chaotic, noisy time of overstimulation and distraction—and the transformative effects of solitude, silence, and stillness—from the New York Times bestselling author of Practicing the Way and The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry. “The noise of the world doesn’t just hurt your ears—it harms your soul. John Mark Comer shows in this wonderful book how to step back from the world and find God in stillness.”—Arthur C. Brooks, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Build the Life You Want Modern living is inundated with noise, busyness, and a digital cycle fueled by outrage and fear. We are anxious, overstimulated, exhausted, and bone-dry in our souls. We ache for God yet can barely pay attention. Drawing on the wisdom of the contemplative tradition and spiritual practices that date back to the earliest centuries of the church, Comer invites readers to rediscover an ancient path of quiet, peace, and serenity—to step out of the chronic noise and constant motion of the modern world into the still, silent presence of the God of peace. What The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry was to the speed of the modern world, this book is to the noise of it. As with the pace of modern living, the volume of the modern world can cut off our hearts from God, colonize our minds, and make “practicing the presence of God” virtually impossible. It can damage our bodies and degrade our spirits. Comer is convinced quiet is the antidote—not just the quiet of a retreat or a morning hour, but an intentional quest to de-noise your overall life. And in doing so, to live just a little slower and softer before God.

The Unseen War Is Real. But Your Victory Is Already Secured. You sense it, don't you A force in the world actively working against your peace, your family, and your faith. The Bible calls this spiritual warfare, and while the reality of this unseen battle can sound intimidating, Dr. David Jeremiah wants to offer a liberating truth: You have nothing to fear in Christ.

In this book, he shows you: How to identify the enemy's strategies without becoming obsessed with them. The absolute assurance of your eternal victory secured by Jesus Christ. Practical, everyday ways to guard your heart and mind from attack. Why a proper understanding of spiritual warfare actually leads to greater peace and freedom. You are not a helpless target.

Why we ask why : the science of explanation and the human drive to understand by October 27, 2026
An insightful look at the science of explanation, using psychology, philosophy, and stories to reveal surprising truths about how we make sense of ourselves and the world Humans are explanation-seeking creatures. We wonder why there’s traffic, why a friend behaved a certain way, why the sky is blue, and—in moments of existential reflection— why we are here. Over the last twenty-five years, renowned cognitive scientist Tania Lombrozo has turned this explanation-seeking tendency back on itself to ask: Why do humans explain? What does explanation do for us? And, most important, how can we do it better? In Why We Ask Why, Lombrozo takes readers on a journey into the depths of explanation, exploring the role that this fundamental cognitive process plays for each of us as we engage with others and the world around us. She reveals what makes some explanations more satisfying than others, why we seek simpler explanations (and whether we should), how explanations drive learning, and the role of explanations in creating meaning and igniting change. Along the way, she provides crucial tools to refine the craft of explanation—for ourselves, for others, and to build a better world. Through scientific studies and lively stories, we come to appreciate that explanations aren’t simply facts that describe the past—they’re also mental acts that decide the future. Astute, thought-provoking, and constantly surprising, Why We Ask Why is a book that offers explanations for questions you didn’t even know you had.

As the journalist sat with his source in an empty restaurant in an industrial city 900 miles east of Moscow, a squad of masked agents charged in, blindfolded Evan, and dragged him into an unmarked van. The agents were from the FSB, Putin’s powerful security service, and the successor to the Soviet-era KGB. Five years earlier, Evan had arrived in Moscow to jumpstart his journalism career. His parents had left the Soviet Union in the 1970s, forging a middle-class life in New Jersey, where Evan grew up on Soviet-era cartoons and weekend trips to Brighton Beach. In Moscow, Evan dove into life—unpacking politics for readers of The Moscow Times and developing a circle of deep friendships with Russian peers, all striving to make their way in perilous times. Western journalists had long felt insulated from the dangers their Russian counterparts experienced. But war, it seemed, had changed the rules. Interrogated for hours after his arrest, Evan was told he was being charged with spying and thrown in Moscow’s notorious Lefortovo prison—a pawn in a geopolitical chess match. After his world suddenly shrunk to a tiny, cement-walled cell, Evan did something remarkable: he continued reporting. For the next sixteen months, he documented a life in Russia that few Westerners will ever experience: its sprawling prison system, with its own vocabulary and customs—and surprising pockets of humanity. In writing by turns riveting and humorous, Evan brings readers inside the events leading to his arrest, his nearly 500 days in Russian prisons, and the blockbuster, multi-country prisoner swap that freed him. More than a prison memoir, This Cursed Beautiful Land is an extraordinary, deeply reported chronicle of a misunderstood people and their land—marked at once by stunning beauty and a haunting history.

Out of the shadows : revealing the truth about non-human intelligent life by October 27, 2026
The long-awaited, explosive memoir by former senior intelligence official Jay Stratton, the central figure in the U.S. Government's modern investigation of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) and non-human intelligent life. For over 16 years, Stratton investigated UAP and non-human intelligent life on behalf of the federal government. While serving at the Defense Intelligence Agency, Stratton learned of UAP incursions over nuclear weapon sites, leading him to co-found the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Application Program (AAWSAP), the first official U.S. Government program to investigate UAP since the closure of the Air Force's Project Blue Book. Operating in the shadows of the intelligence community, Stratton discovered an 80-year coverup of the existence of non-human intelligent life and fought back against powerful gatekeepers who have hid the truth from the public, Congress, and even Presidents. While risking everything in pursuit of the truth, he created and led the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), the first whole-of-government investigation of UAP, forcing the nation to confront the unknown. Now, Stratton breaks his silence to provide a startling first-hand account of the shocking discoveries, encounters, challenges, and behind-the-scenes revelations that profoundly altered his understanding of humanity's place in the universe and took a disturbing toll on him and his family. A bombshell account and a definitive memoir that reads like a political thriller, Out of the Shadows is a high-stakes journey into the deepest and most significant mystery in human history.

The small and the mighty : : twelve unsung Americans who changed the course of history, from the founding to the civil rights movement by October 13, 2026

Through meticulous research, she discovers history's unsung characters and brings their rich, riveting stories to light for the first time. You'll meet a woman astride a white horse riding down Pennsylvania Ave, a young boy detained at a Japanese incarceration camp, a formerly enslaved woman on a mission to reunite with her daughter, a poet on a train, and a teacher who learns to work with her enemies. More than one thing is bombed, and multiple people surprisingly become rich. Some rich with money, and some wealthy with things that matter more. This is a book about what really made America--and Americans--great. McMahon's cast of improbable champions will become familiar friends, lighting the path we journey in our quest to make the world more just, peaceful, good, and free"--
The Zorg : a tale of greed and murder that inspired the abolition of slavery by October 13, 2026
"A book of great importance and one that will likely become a classic." - New York Times Book Review One of The New York Times' 100 Most Notable Books of 2025 A Time Magazine Must-Read Book of 2025 A New Yorker Essential Read From the Pulitzer Finalist and New York Times bestselling author of Cobalt Red: How the Blood of the Congo Powers Our Lives Perfect for fans of David Grann’s The Wager and The Wide, Wide Sea by Hampton Sides In late October 1780, a slave ship set sail from the Netherlands, bound for Africa’s Windward and Gold Coasts, where it would take on its human cargo. The Zorg (a Dutch word meaning “care”) was one of thousands of such ships, but the harrowing events that ensued on its doomed journey were unique. By the time its journey ends, the Zorg would become the first undeniable argument against slavery. When a series of unpredictable weather events and navigational errors led to the Zorg sailing off course and running low on supplies, the ship's captain threw more than a hundred slaves overboard in order to save the crew and the most valuable slaves. The ship's owners then claimed their loss on insurance, a first for slaves who had not been killed due to insurrection or died of natural causes. The insurers refused to pay due to the higher than usual mortality rate of the slaves on board, leading to a trial which initially found in their favor, in which the Chief Justice compared the slaves to horses. Thanks to the outrage of one man present in court that day, a retrial was held. For the first time, concepts such as human rights and morality entered the discourse on slavery in a courtroom case that boiled down to a simple yet profound question: Were the Africans on board people or cargo? What followed was a fascinating legal drama in England’s highest court that turned the brutal calculus of slavery into front-page news. The case of the Zorg catapulted the nascent anti-slavery movement from a minor evangelical cause to one of the most consequential moral campaigns in history―sparking the abolitionist movement in both England and the young United States. The Zorg is the astonishing yet little-known true story of the most consequential ship that ever crossed the Atlantic.
Said the dead by October 13, 2026
From the award-winning author of A Ghost in the Throat comes a time-traversing, form-defying, genre-morphing story of a reader unraveling the legacies of a fabled asylum and the women who haunt its halls. In Cork, Ireland, a derelict Victorian mental hospital is being converted into modern apartments. One passerby has always flinched as she nears the place. In another time, she might have found herself held within those walls. She notices a sign, the first of many. Guided by an irresistible impulse, she follows them. FOR SALE. The letter L, broken free from a pane of stained glass. Whispers from the river. She trespasses, steals, absconds from the routines of her life—mother, spouse, daughter—as she hears a chorus of insistent voices. They murmur from archives, old casebooks that recorded their progress and failures—no change. They slip through stairwells and walls. They are the women who knew this place best, and with them—with one in particular—she feels a connection. She is drawn out; she knocks on a door in the night. Will this investigation, this journey, this haunting, take her too far into the past or will it bring her to a new understanding of what she might yet make of the future? A work of intense attention and tenderness, Doireann Ní Ghríofa's Said the Dead breaks boundaries between past and present, the imagined and real, history and fiction, to make something new and lasting. An investigation into the dangers of knowing our selves and the past, it is an experience like no other—a ghost story and a reclamation.
The steps : a memoir by October 13, 2026
A gritty, inspiring, heart-wrenching memoir by the Academy Award-winning legend and icon Sylvester Stallone, about his unlikely path to stardom and the creation of the greatest underdog story ever told. In the fifty years since Sylvester Stallone ran up the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum, he and those steps have become symbols of resilience and determination, and have inspired millions from all over the world to pursue their dreams. In The Steps, Stallone recounts how he pursued his own dreams. A culmination of decades of reflection, Sly shares where he came from - a difficult birth, an even more difficult childhood, years of struggle in school being misunderstood - and he explains how the real story of a successful life is built by facing, embracing and ultimately overcoming our challenges. It's found in the distances we are willing to go and the steps we must take to get from where we are to where we want to go. In a narrative framed between Stallone's arrival in New York City in 1969 and the triumph of Rocky at the 1977 Academy Awards, Sly weaves a vivid and propulsive portrait of struggle, subsistence and ultimately success. He writes of his early days and later years, too, and the persistence, creativity and resilience that led not only to the creation of Rocky but to a career filled with remarkably iconic roles. The Steps is a testament to Stallone's extraordinary life and a profound meditation on the importance of vision and willpower and hard work.
A shadow over the world : Franklin D. Roosevelt, the rise of fascism, and the making of America's World War II by October 13, 2026
From New York Times bestselling author William I. Hitchcock, a riveting, revelatory portrait of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the lead-up to World War II, tracing his—and America’s—awakening to the threat of fascism. How did FDR and the American public respond to the rise of dictators across Europe and Asia on the eve of World War II? The familiar narrative is that they reacted with indifference and embraced isolationism. Only with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor were Americans reluctantly drawn into the global conflict. But distinguished historian William I. Hitchcock reveals a far more complex and surprising story. From the time Mussolini came to power in 1922 to America’s entry into the war in 1941, Americans engaged in a fraught national debate over the rising threat—and for some, the lure—of fascism. At the center of this debate was Roosevelt himself. When he took office in 1933, Roosevelt was determined to avoid foreign entanglements that would harm his ambitious domestic agenda of the New Deal. But over the course of his first two terms, a network of journalists, activists, advisers, and diplomats gradually awakened him to the global dangers of fascism. Roosevelt’s transformation was part of a larger national reckoning with authoritarianism around the world. A Shadow Over the World shines a light on a time when a coalition of courageous humanists gathered around a visionary leader to forge a new purpose for America: to protect democracy, oppose imperialism, support human rights, and lead a global fight for freedom. Their successful struggle against the dark forces of fascism holds powerful lessons for our own perilous times.
The phantom : the untold story of the American marine the Nazis could not kill by October 13, 2026
Soldier, spy, scout, saboteur, and French Resistance leader in the heart of Nazi-occupied Europe--the untold story of Marine legend Pete Ortiz. Major Pierre “Pete” Ortiz was a Manhattan-born and Paris-educated polymath fluent in five languages. An adventuresome French Foreign Legion veteran specifically recruited by "Wild" Bill Donovan’s Office of Strategic Services (the precursor to both the CIA and U.S. Special Forces) upon his enlistment in the Marines, Ortiz was the officer “Wild Bill” instinctively knew he needed and could rely on to complete a string of clandestine missions. While recuperating from gunshot wounds received during a behind-the-lines excursion into enemy-held North Africa, Ortiz delivered his After-Action Report directly to Donovan in Washington. After reading it, “Wild Bill” scrawled across the top of the report: “Please re-employ this man as soon as possible.” Ortiz’s handlers heeded Donovan’s request. Within a year Ortiz was surreptitiously parachuted into the Haute Savoie region of Occupied France, where he made contact with the resistance fighters who called themselves Maquisards. By the time he retired as a United States Marine Corps colonel, he received two Navy Crosses for extraordinary heroism in World War II. He was one of the very few U.S. Marines to serve in combat in Europe during World War II, and one of the most decorated Marine officers of the war.
Darkness becomes bright : on the brief life and immortal art of Edgar Allan Poe by October 13, 2026
A fascinating and intimate inquiry into Edgar Allan Poe’s shadowy life and horrifyingly compelling work—and why we are drawn to darkness in art Since Edgar Allan Poe’s mysterious death in 1849, his stories and poems have captivated millions of readers around the world. Nearly two centuries later, why do we continue to descend into the darkness of his imagination—and of the genres, from horror to crime, that he pioneered? In this spellbinding and singular book, Guggenheim Fellow and Whiting grant recipient Emily Ogden plumbs the darkness within Poe and enters it alongside him. She interweaves stories from his mysterious and tragic life—from his strange disappearances and tortured romances to his nearly fatal use of opium—with those of his most famous readers and translators, including poet Charles Baudelaire, writer Julio Cortázar, and psychoanalyst Marie Bonaparte, a descendant of Napoleon and a patient of Sigmund Freud. Tracing their passionate attachments to Poe—and Ogden’s own, unexpectedly sparked when she taught an introductory Poe course at the University of Virginia, where Poe himself was once a student—Darkness Becomes Bright makes a different case for literature from the one we most often hear. This exquisite volume shows how Poe’s vision echoes across the generations, allowing us to make peace with our own flawed humanity.

The brink of war : inside the Reagan-Gorbachev weekend that changed the world by November 03, 2026
What really happened during the extraordinary 48 hours when Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev came face-to-face at the height of the Cold War, with the world standing on the brink of nuclear showdown? "A riveting history of one of the most important moments of the Cold War. Adelman has written a page-turning narrative that leaves us on the edge of our seats." -Ken Burns In October 1986, as tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union pushed the world to a dangerous cliff, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev arrived in Reykjavik, Iceland, for what was expected to be an empty grip-and-grin session. Instead, over that one weekend, the two leaders engaged in a series of high-stakes negotiations that fundamentally altered the course of history. Former arms control director and top Reagan aide, Ken Adelman, delivers the gripping inside story of the Reykjavik summit and the remarkable 48 hours that launched: 1) a precipitous decline in nuclear arsenals, 2) new emphasis on defenses against missiles (and later drones), and 3) actions which led to the end of the Cold War and to the collapse of the Soviet Union. Filled with astonishing behind-the-scenes in a desolate Icelandic house reputed to be haunted, The Brink of War reads like a political thriller while revealing the high drama of a hugely consequential meeting. Inside the haunted halls of Hofdi House came tense emotional clashes between two larger-than-life figures, Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev. At Reagan's side, top policy advisor Ken Adelman takes readers inside the room where the future of the world hung in the balance. Drawing on newly declassified documents, personal experience, and decades of hindsight, he reveals how Reykjavik reshaped superpower relations and changed history forever. Part historical revelation, part eyewitness memoir, and part warning for today's time, The Brink of War is a timely and riveting account of presidential leadership, contrasting ideologies, and the fragile line between peace and catastrophe. If you love a gripping story of political events, Cold War intrigue, political maneuvering, and dramatic episodes that changed the world, this is a book you cannot miss. Buy The Brink of War: Inside the Reagan-Gorbachev Weekend that Changed the World today and discover the extraordinary weekend that helped change the course of history.
The flight nurses' war : the American women who saved thousands of lives at Iwo Jima and Okinawa / ; by November 03, 2026
The unsung story of heroic World War II combat nurses sent into the battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa to save thousands of American soldiers and Marines The Pacific Theater was the setting for some of World War II's bloodiest battles, and yet much of its history remains untold. As the war in Europe was winding down, fierce Japanese resistance and mounting casualties slowed the US advance toward Japan. The terrible death toll of doctors, medics, and corpsmen forced the United States Navy to deploy combat nurses to contested airfields, where they triaged desperately wounded men and evacuated them to safety. In The Flight Nurses' War, award-winning historian Leah Garrett traces the lives of eight nurses from their small-town origins to the devastation of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. They risked their lives on rickety, unpressurized aircraft and braved constant enemy assaults. As the battles intensified, Army nurses were also deployed to hospital ships and the infantry front- line, where they endured disease, snipers, and Kamikazes. Successfully evacuating thousands of wounded men from danger, the combat nurses freed up troops to secure both islands and help win the war. Uncovering an extraordinary story of Second World War heroism, The Flight Nurses' War powerfully brings to life the remarkable women who risked everything to save lives and assure America's success in the Pacific campaign.
True North : on the road in Canada by November 03, 2026
Acclaimed, bestselling author and travel writer Paul Theroux turns his gaze to Canada in a sweeping, personal journey. For more than half a century, Paul Theroux has traveled the globe and chronicled its far corners with curiosity, wit, and an unflinching eye. With True North, his twelfth travel book, he turns that eye to a country that has long been his quiet neighbor: Canada. What begins as the completion of a North American road trip trilogy becomes something more personal. Theroux traces his own ancestral connection to Quebec, where his forebear Antoine Theroux arrived in the 17th century. Theroux meets his Quebcois friends and relations, then travels more widely through remote villages, multicultural cities, and sweeping landscapes that have defined modern Canada. Along the way, he speaks with farmers, refugees, writers like John Irving and Michael Ondaatje, and Indigenous leaders such as Tanya Talaga, listening as Canadians reckon with identity, belonging, and patriotism, often in response to the jabs and provocations of their southern neighbor. From snowbound Ottawa at the height of political protests to the Viking settlement at L'Anse aux Meadows, from Toronto's "ethno-burbs" to Vancouver's Pacific gateway, True North is a panoramic portrait of a vast country both familiar and elusive. It is also a meditation on kinship, migration, and the resilience of a people shaped by history, geography, and challenging weather. With the empathy of a companion and the sharpness of a cultural critic, Theroux delivers a timely, vivid travel narrative that reveals Canada as never before--diverse, unsettled, and alive with stories.
In the shadow of eight : surviving the reality of my childhood by November 03, 2026
Collin Gosselin, one of the sextuplets from Jon & Kate Plus 8, breaks his silence to share the shocking story of abuse hidden behind the facade of a picture-perfect family. For years, the world watched Jon & Kate Plus 8 through a lens of curated joy. But while the cameras captured the milestones, they missed the moments that defined Collin Gosselin's life: the Christmas morning where the gifts were reclaimed as soon as the cameras went down, and the basement room where silence was his only companion. In the Shadow of Eight is the first account of a secret childhood lived in the gaps between the frames. Collin is finally sharing the truth about the "help" that held him down, the basement cell where he was hidden for years, and the cocktail of powerful antipsychotics forced on an eleven-year-old boy. This is a reckoning with the dark side of fame: the systems, the entourage, and the institutions that looked the other way while one boy was erased. This is the never before told story of how he escaped and found his way back from the dark.
In my own time : a memoir by November 03, 2026
In the vein of Patrick Stewart's MAKING IT SO and Henry Winkler's BEING HENRY, a larger than life memoir from Christopher Lloyd, the beloved star of Back to the Future and Taxi, that follows him through his lonely childhood in an exorbitantly wealthy family, experiences breaking into acting, time recovering from addiction, and his path to figuring out his creative identity, which would influence his roles in the many films of his illustrious, wide-ranging career. Christopher Lloyd grew up largely in isolation on the sprawling estate of Waveny in Connecticut, the scion of the wealthy Lapham family that founded Texaco. His early life wandering those vast grounds, being raised by governesses, seeing his mother institutionalized, and attending an upper crust boarding school all combined into a shy, lonely childhood, and for a long time he felt more comfortable on his own than with others. It wasn't until he fled that life of privilege and found his voice on stage that he found the connections he'd missed out on - connections that would eventually include journeymen actors and Hollywood greats like Jack Nicholson, Charlie Kaufman, and Meryl Streep, as Christopher made his way in the worlds of film, TV, and Broadway. TIME WILL TELL is the intimate memoir of a singular actor. In his own elegant prose, Christopher brings readers along on his unique journey to fame, sharing never before told stories from his unusual upbringing to his famed roles in some of the biggest films of the 21st century: Taber in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, the loveable, eccentric Jim Ignatowski onTaxi, and the iconic Doc Brown in Back to the Future franchise. He delves deeply into his training as a stage actor at the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York, his early career on Broadway, the loves of his life, his hard-fought journey to sobriety, and, of course, his time on the sets of now-classic films. With charm and honesty, Christopher's memoir reveals the thoughtful soul behind some of the most beloved larger than life characters to ever grace the silver screen.
The vanishing family : love, fate, and the quest to end dementia by November 03, 2026
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Valley Road comes the heart-wrenching journey of a family facing a tragic genetic destiny, set against the scientific search for hope for all of us who fear losing our selves to dementia None of us knows how our story will end, or what shape we will be in by the time the end comes. Here, however, is the story of a family filled with people who do know -- or could know. Each family member has a 50-50 chance of inheriting a genetic mutation that causes frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a cruel disease that emerges in middle age. As more and more family members begin to show symptoms, The Vanishing Family offers an intimate exploration of the family's emotional journeys and relationships, and the difficult decisions they face as they confront their genetic fate. Through first-rate reporting and compassionate storytelling, Kolker brings to life the experiences of those in the family who are afflicted by FTD and those who are not. Interwoven with this devastating narrative is the relentless search for a cure--and a glimmer of hope that FTD research could also help us understand more common forms of dementia like Alzheimer's. The decision of whether to get tested for the genetic mutation looms over all members of the family, surfacing a haunting question: if you were going to lose yourself--in a year, or two, or ten--would you even want to know? The Vanishing Family is a powerful allegory for our anxieties about aging and the unknown, offering a roadmap through the unthinkable.
Food is medicine : healing our bodies, nourishing our minds, and transforming our food system by November 03, 2026
An urgent indictment of the food we eat, how it is making us sick, and the choices that led us here, and a call for a revolutionary new food system that can mend our health, economy, and planet, from a world-renowned expert in nutrition, medicine, and public policy The food we eat is making us sick. In the United States and around the world, diet has become the leading cause of illness and premature death, from obesity and diabetes to heart disease and other chronic ailments. Advocates of healthier diets pin the blame on overeating, but the bigger issue is what we undereat—the dearth of food that nourishes and heals. Harnessing the power of the right foods can do more than prevent illness; it can treat it, extending life while reducing the crippling cost of ill health to our communities and economy. Food Is Medicine shows the way, from transforming our own diets to keep us healthy to getting the right foods from our farms, into our stores and onto our plates—all while eating plentifully and pleasurably. A global authority, uniquely positioned on the front lines of nutrition science, medicine, and public policy, Dariush Mozaffarian, MD, DrPH draws on cutting-edge research to turn complex science into a clear, actionable program to end the health crisis in our homes and communities. Excavating the decisions that led to a broken food system, plagued by the harms of ultraprocessing and ruinous to the environment, he lays out how the meals we eat are damaging our bodies. He reveals the medicinal, healing power of ideal nutrition and introduces the innovators who are pioneering solutions—at the doctor’s office, in supermarkets, in the halls of Congress, and above all for individuals, to empower them to access the foods they need to live well. With clarity and optimism, braiding storytelling, science, and practical wisdom, Food Is Medicine lays out a vision for a twenty-first century food system that will restore health, nourishment, and equity without sacrificing convenience or choice. In the process, these solutions can revitalize our economy, and even help to heal our planet.

The world beneath our feet : the hidden life of soil and why it matters to us all by November 03, 2026
A vivid tour into the subterranean that encourages us to look downwards, revealing how the earth's most biodiverse frontier sustains all life above the soil surface The ground beneath us hums with a staggering abundance of winding roots, interconnecting fungal networks, wriggling creatures, and mind-blowing microbial life. This hidden ecosystem is the single most biodiverse habitat on the planet. Over half of all the Earth's species exist underfoot, where decaying matter is transformed into new life; just a handful of soil can contain an entire world. Without soil, there would be no life as we know it—and yet we rarely take the time to know the countless lives happening below. In The World Beneath Our Feet, soil ecologist Frank Ashwood dives deep into this precious ecosystem, spanning the globe from the frozen landscape of Greenland to the black soil deposits of the Amazon and the Eurasian Steppe, while also examining the jaw-dropping evolutionary adaptations that make lives very alien from our own possible. Unearthing soil layers one at a time, Ashwood reveals every sublayer to be a distinct macrocosm, teeming with organisms essential to our planet's wellbeing. Supported by interviews with global soil biologists, as well as his own expert research, Ashwood shows us how life at a microscopic scale impacts us all. Powerfully illuminating the dark depths of the earth, and accompanied by the author's own up-close photography, which magnifies and reveals creatures only millimeters long, The World Beneath Our Feet opens our eyes to the hidden and wondrous world of soil—perhaps the greatest unexplored frontier on our planet.

Crying out loud : a path through grief into a life reimagined by November 03, 2026
A compassionate guide to navigating the complex journey of grief, from New York Times bestselling author, therapist, and grief expert Dr. Laura Berman. AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVER Grief doesn’t like to be quiet. It doesn’t care for euphemisms, small talk, or polite avoidance. It wants to be felt—fully, honestly, and out loud.

The ballad of the fugitive William Parker : a true tale of love, murder, treason, and ordinary folks who saved America by November 03, 2026
For fans of Master Slave Husband Wife and Django Unchained comes the extraordinary forgotten story of an event known in its day as “the first shots of the Civil War,” from the New York Times bestselling author of Dr. Mütter’s Marvels. The year, 1851. The place, a Quaker farming community turned Underground Railroad stronghold, where a Maryland enslaver had journeyed in pursuit of four men who’d fled his plantation years before. In a few hours, he’d be dead…and twenty-seven men from the village of Christiana would be rounded up and put on trial. Not for his murder, but for treason—for waging war against the United States, at a time when it was a crime against the government to obstruct an enslaver looking to reclaim his “property.” This is story of what happened in Christiana that September morning—and in the ensuing “trial of the century,” which saw the president himself advise the prosecution on strategy and a sitting congressman serve as lead attorney for the defense. But The Ballad of the Fugitive William Parker is also a much larger tale, one spanning decades, following a whole startlingly diverse community of abolitionists in their fight to convince their fellow Americans of the subversive idea that now found itself on trial: that the nation ought to live up the ideals it was founded on, and respect all men as equals. It’s a story that whisks readers from the quiet farmlands of Lancaster County—where a self-emancipated man named William Parker, whom legend had it bullets could not kill, rallied his neighbors to ride out each night to battle the slavecatchers who stalked their countryside—to Philadelphia’s genteel Society Hill, where socialite Harriet Forten Purvis had the ear of the mayor (and a cellar filled with fugitives). It’s stylish, propulsive, intimately human tale of bravery, ingenuity, and hope—and of ordinary people with little in common who came together to stand against injustice…and won.
Ladies' man : the careless heart of John F. Kennedy by November 03, 2026
From the New York Times bestselling author of Capote’s Women, a penetrating examination of President John F. Kennedy’s complicated, tumultuous life as told through the lens of the fascinating women he loved John F. Kennedy was a born leader—bold, charismatic, and able to charm with nothing more than a witty phrase and a winning smile. He was also obsessive, manipulative, and haunted by complex desires for shiny, remarkable women, collecting them voraciously and carelessly, then dismissing them summarily, on his rise to the White House. But these women were perhaps the only witnesses to the real JFK—and it’s time their stories were finally told. Bestselling biographer Laurence Leamer knew three of Kennedy’s mistresses, and Ladies’ Man reveals JFK’s harrowing, intimate life with unprecedented access. From youthful indiscretions at boarding school, early connections with such beautiful aristocratic European women as Inga Arvad and Gunilla von Post, marriage to the stately Jacqueline Bouvier, romances with Pamela Turnure and Diana de Vegh, liaisons with mafia moll Judith Exner and East German spy Ellen Rometsch, to his relationship with Marilyn Monroe shortly before her death, JFK’s affairs were multifaceted and often tragic. His cautious public persona contrasted sharply with his reckless personal life, where he took bewildering chances that could have destroyed his presidency. No one who reads Ladies’ Man will ever think about John F. Kennedy the same way again.
The six minute war : Reagan, Russia and the race to automate armageddon by November 03, 2026
The New York Times bestselling author of One Minute to Midnight Michael Dobbs reconstructs the thrilling inside story of the climactic nuclear crisis of the Cold War, revealing the tension between “the human in the loop” and the algorithms that could trigger World War III. The year is 1983. Ronald Reagan is obsessed by biblical prophecies of Armageddon. A computer revolution is changing everything—from the way we track incoming ballistic missiles to how we share and consume information. And then, over just three months, a series of dramatic events encapsulates the president’s worst nightmares. In rapid succession, a South Korean airliner is shot down over the Soviet Union after straying off course because of pilot-computer miscommunication. A glitchy Soviet early warning system mistakenly reports an incoming US missile attack. The Kremlin puts its nuclear forces on high alert in response to a routine NATO nuclear release exercise. Reagan deploys missiles capable of destroying the Kremlin in six minutes from their launch positions in West Germany. Soviet nuclear submarines are stationed off Cape Hatteras, ready to obliterate the White House in the same amount of time. “Six minutes to decide how to respond to a blip on a radar scope and decide whether to unleash Armageddon!” Reagan recalled many years later, in a little-noticed passage in his memoirs. “How could anyone apply reason at a time like that?” In The Six Minute War, the former Moscow bureau chief for The Washington Post explores the challenge confronting fallible human leaders responding to ever-shrinking warning times of a nuclear attack. A nail-biting narrative of the Cold War crisis that heralded the fall of the Soviet Union, The Six Minute War poses an existential question: can we trust the machines at such life-or-death moments—or will we be destroyed by our own technological hubris?
Abandoning a cat : a personal story by November 03, 2026
A moving reflection on the author's father—plus a cat!—this is a beautiful short work of family history from one of our most beloved, iconic writers. Originally published in the New Yorker in 2019, and now presented in a full, unabridged form, Abandoning a Cat is a poignant, self-reflective work by Haruki Murakami. Here he writes about his father, the son of a priest who might have become a priest himself had a clerical error not sent him into the second world war. Murakami's father wrote accomplished haiku and eventually became a teacher. As Haruki grew older -- as he became an adult and then a writer, he and his father found they had little in common. They were later estranged for twenty years, only reconciling on his father's deathbed. This haunting personal essay is a reflection on what it means to be a father and what it means to be a son -- on what it means to be loved and to be abandoned -- and also on a particular moment of Japanese history, through the aftermath of the second world war on into the present. Murakami fans may find common themes from beloved novels such as Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle -- but will also be surprised by the raw honesty of this beautiful autobiographical piece.
First light : sailing solo but not alone by November 03, 2026
A thrilling memoir from the first American woman to race a sailboat solo, nonstop around the world. “A must-read for every young woman with a dream.”—BILLIE JEAN KING “Brauer’s strength and resilience inspire us to challenge ourselves to venture out of our safe harbor and experience the high seas of life.”—CHRISTIE BRINKLEY In 2024, Cole Brauer became the first American woman to race solo around the world, in a forty-foot sailboat named First Light. For 130 days, she navigated mechanical breakdowns, debilitating food poisoning, and the Southern Ocean’s extreme cold. Yet, amid the isolation, she found breathtaking sunrises, impromptu dance parties, and a life-changing sense of peace. First Light recounts the intimate details of this historic circumnavigation, but it isn’t the typical story of conquering the elements. Instead, it is a memoir of a woman who moved into the most remote environment on Earth and made herself a home. For years, Brauer navigated the rigid hierarchies of a traditionalist sport, facing a relentless tide of skepticism from a world that often tried to ground her before she even left the dock. Out at sea, she didn’t just race 27,000 miles; she proved her critics wrong, reframing one of the world’s most grueling solo races as an act of joyful resistance. First Light is a reckoning with what it means to belong—in a male-dominated field, in a high-speed world, and within yourself. Unfiltered, exhilarating, and deeply personal, it is a testament to the resilience required to stay true to yourself when the world wants you to stay small. Brauer invites us all to find presence in a noisy world, believe in the impossible, and see the horizon not as a boundary but as a hearth.
Actually, nevermind : essays by November 03, 2026
In person : how working together fuels creativity, productivity, and growth by November 03, 2026
“A crucial book for this moment.”—Walter Isaacson, New York Times bestselling author of Steve Jobs “Essential reading for anyone who leads a company or team today.”—Amy Edmondson, Professor of Leadership and Management at Harvard Business School and author of Right Kind of Wrong Finally, the science-backed guide to making the most of in-person work—whether it’s one day in the office or five—drawing on the authors’ original research as featured in Science, NPR, HBR, The New York Times, and more. For the first time in history, millions of workers can do their jobs from anywhere—and the result is the most contentious workplace debate in generations. Employees fight to protect their freedom. CEOs issue return-to-office mandates by gut instinct. Everyone argues, but no one has the data. Until now. Harvard-trained economists Natalia Emanuel and Emma Harrington are leading researchers on remote and in-person work. They've spent years tracking millions of work hours across industries, analyzing Fortune 500 firms, startups, tech companies, and call centers. Their findings? Remote work is good for crossing tasks off a to-do list, but can erode the quality of our work, stifle creativity, and hurt mental health. When we're together, our brain-to-brain synchrony increases 10x, accelerating creativity, mentorship, and innovation. That’s why Pixar animators, Nobel Prize winners, and Silicon Valley founders have come up with their best ideas face-to-face with one another. Working side-by-side can be a powerful force to supercharge company performance. But many office policies miss this mark, focusing on butts in seats, instead of brains in sync. Emanuel and Harrington offer solutions on how to craft the right policy. Backed with the latest research on the science of work, In Person offers tactical steps to make the most of in-office time, covering: How to calculate the right number of on-site days for your specific organization The playbook for preserving employee flexibility without losing the power of being together Why some RTO mandates fail spectacularly–and how to succeed After years of confusion, animosity, and conflicting mandates, In Person finally delivers the answers in a clear, evidence-based roadmap for making smarter decisions with your most valuable resource: your people.

Bestselling author and transformational speaker Ryan Leak shares research-based strategies for working with even the most challenging people to create more collaborative and productive teams. Who is the most complicated person you work with? You probably don’t have to think very hard to answer that question. You already know their name, their job title, their quirks, and their flaws. You have firsthand experience with the mental and emotional fallout they leave in their wake. You’ve seen the problems their complexity creates for everyone on their team. You wish you could fix them, solve them, ignore them, or teleport them to a parallel dimension. But you can’t. You have to work with them. (You could quit, but your next job will have a complicated person waiting for you.) That means you need effective strategies to collaborate with (nearly) anyone. Especially the picky, prickly, problematic ones. Drawing from his global consulting experience with teams and leaders from the glitz of sports and entertainment, to the number-crunching world of finance, to the meticulous realms of insurance, pharma, and manufacturing, Ryan Leak provides proven strategies for… Seeing challenging individuals as human beings to understand rather than problems to solve Detoxing unrealistic expectations and getting comfortable with complicated Learning to communicate effectively in complex environments Embracing healthy disagreement as a tool to discover better solutions Setting boundaries that let people into your world without letting them run your world “The process of learning to collaborate with difficult individuals is transformative—it’s a gateway to greater creativity, stronger teams, and increased productivity,” Leak explains. “On the other side of complicated is the wonderful, wide-open world of effective collaboration and a workplace you love.”

Hand taste : cook like a Korean grandmother by November 03, 2026
The hotly anticipated debut cookbook from star chef Esther Choi: 100 recipes that add extraordinary flavor to everything you touch, just like a Korean grandmother We all know cooks whose fingertips seem to infuse every meal with deliciousness.

Here, Choi offers delicious entry points to Korean and Korean-American cuisine, with foundational techniques alongside quick weeknight recipes and show-stopping traditional spreads.

Adult children of emotionally abusive families : overcoming the pain, dysfunction, and trauma of growing up in a toxic family by November 03, 2026
A groundbreaking guide from a leading expert on emotional abuse that reveals how one person’s harmful behavior can ripple through an entire family. From bestselling and internationally recognized expert and therapist Beverly Engel comes Adult Children of Emotionally Abusive Families, the first comprehensive book to explore how emotional abuse doesn’t just affect couples—it shapes entire family systems, often damaging children in ways that last a lifetime. With decades of clinical experience and a compassionate, empowering voice, Engel exposes the unseen epidemic of emotional abuse in families, where tension, control, criticism, and shame become normalized, and every member suffers the consequences. While emotional abuse is finally being discussed in popular culture, Engel makes the urgent case that we still aren’t talking enough about its impact on children—and how parents, both the abusive and the abused, may be unconsciously perpetuating cycles of harm. Through real-life case studies, questionnaires, checklists, and healing exercises, she provides an accessible roadmap for recognizing toxic dynamics, stopping the spread of abuse, and most important, helping victims who were or are still being emotionally abused by their families to heal. While a strong and healthy family can provide a sense of protection and security for its children, what happens when, instead of being a port in the storm, families become the storm itself—bombarding the children with constant conflict and trauma? This is what this much-needed book is about. Whether you witnessed your parents emotionally abusing one another, are a victim of an emotionally abusive parent, or the victim of a sibling who passed the abuse on to you, Adult Children of Emotionally Abusive Families will offer you the support, validation and concrete tools you so desperately need in order to heal. And if you are an abusive or abused parent or sibling who passed the abuse on to others in your family, this book will offer you compassion and understanding to help you begin to make changes that can alter your life and the lives of those in your family.

No land to stand on : notes from detention by November 03, 2026
A revelatory and powerful testament of protest, courage, and imprisonment in America’s deportation regime “Are you Mahmoud Khalil?” The question marked the start of a politically charged odyssey that took the Palestinian graduate student and legal resident from his pregnant wife and home in New York City, transported him across the country, and locked him up in a Louisiana detention camp under threat of deportation. His “crime”: exercising his right to free speech at Columbia University, where he emerged as a leading voice against the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. No Land to Stand On is his indelible account, the story of a man confronting the reality that he had become target number one in a lawless regime shredding basic rights. Drawing on his prison diary and writing in vivid, page-turning detail, Mahmoud Khalil conjures the despair and cruelty of ICE detention, where prisoners can vanish overnight and visiting families risk their own deportation. There is humanity, too, in the men’s acts of care—their mutual help with documents, the prison cake they make after Mahmoud can only follow the birth of his son on the public payphone. In tandem, he tells the multi-generational story of a family expelled from Palestine to a Syrian refugee camp, of flight from Assad’s regime to Lebanon, of arrival in an America that promised permanence and protection, and of the enduring struggle for Palestine. A work of courage and resistance, No Land to Stand On is a call to integrity, to staying true to one’s life’s mission, and to defending the inalienable right to safety, freedom, and a land to stand on.
Notes on a blacklash : when a Black woman goes viral by November 03, 2026
The veteran White House correspondent follows up Black Women Will Save the World with a gripping, soul-baring, and deeply personal examination of online misogynoir--specific and relentless online bullying attacks based solely on race and gender. Notes on a Blacklash is veteran White House reporter April Ryan's gripping, soul-baring look at what happens when the world suddenly turns its full attention on you. This isn't just the story of one viral moment with President Trump. It's about the avalanche that follows: the scrutiny, the emotional and physical toll, and the way your identity can become fuel for headlines and hashtags. April pulls back the curtain on what it truly costs to be seen and what it takes to survive it. With vulnerability and power, she recounts the moments that made her go viral, not because she chased attention, but because she showed up authentically. Her presence, her truth, and her refusal to shrink under pressure struck a chord and sparked cultural firestorms. From a high-stakes press room showdown to the history-making decision by Vice President Kamala Harris, from the public disrespect of Stevie Wonder to the slap heard around the world, April explores how race, gender, and power collide in a world addicted to outrage and instant opinions. At its core, this book explores visibility--its price, its power, and the fight to reclaim your story when millions are watching. What does it mean to go viral when your hair is politicized, your voice is policed, and your very existence is treated as a threat? Sometimes, this is what it feels like when the spotlight finds you: uninvited, unrelenting, and impossible to ignore.

The greatest story ever told by November 03, 2026
Written in the style of Bear's book True Grit, this debut piece of fiction writing is gripping and visceral, immersing the reader in the sights, sounds and smells of first-century Roman-occupied Palestine. 'Prophets, middle-eastern and far-eastern astrologers had foretold this man's life for many hundreds of years. A coming king who would hold the very keys to the kingdom of heaven itself. Yet into first-century Judea - a province of the Roman Empire - came an impoverished refugee, born into a time of turmoil and into a people living under the fear and oppression of one of the most brutal and expansive empires ever to have existed. He eventually became a renegade. To others a redeemer. How he lived - his words, his actions - arguably altered the world for ever. Those who were threatened by him were convinced he was the devil himself. Yet those who spent the most time with him, often the outcasts and forgotten, called him the Lamb of God. But his local name was Yeshua.
The stones cry out : Biblical archaeology, prophecy, and the last days by November 03, 2026
EVERY STONE PULLED FROM THE GROUND CONFIRMS WHAT THE BIBLE ALREADY SAID. If it got the past right, with that kind of precision, then its words about the future cannot be ignored. Dinesh D'Souza first traveled to Israel in 2022. He stood at the Pool of Siloam where Jesus healed a blind man. He walked the Pilgrimage Road that Jesus walked. He looked out from the ruins of King David's palace at those very rooftops. And one question stopped him cold: not theological, but factual. IS ANY OF THIS ACTUALLY TRUE? Not on the level of faith, on the level of evidence? And if it's true, why isn't anyone shouting it from the rooftops? He went back. Again and again. Three years of excavations, expeditions, and conversations with archaeologists pulling from the ground things the evening news never covers. What he found cannot be fabricated. NO ONE FABRICATES FOOTNOTES. Two minor officials appear once in the Book of Jeremiah: they throw the prophet into a muddy cistern and vanish from the text. Twenty-six hundred years later, their personal clay seals come out of the ground in Jerusalem. If the people nobody remembers are real, everything else is real too. That is how this book works. Not from the general to the specific. From evidence to evidence, until the verdict becomes impossible to dispute: The seal of King Hezekiah The seal of the prophet Isaiah, found inches away The stone bearing the name of Pontius Pilate The ossuary of the high priest Caiaphas The house in Nazareth where Jesus grew up The site of His execution and burial Nineteen chapters. Thousands of years of biblical history. One conclusion: the Bible is historically accurate, and it can be proven. Then D'Souza asks the question the final chapter was written to answer. IF THE BIBLE IS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED, WHAT DOES THAT TELL US ABOUT WHAT IS STILL TO COME? While he was documenting the past, the prophecies about the future were already coming true: Israel exists again, for the first time in two thousand years, exactly as Isaiah and Ezekiel foretold The gospel has reached every nation on earth For the first time in human history, every person on the planet can witness the same event at the same moment Everything that was predicted is happening now. The stones proved the past. The same Word describes what comes next, and in the final chapter, D'Souza shows that the prophecies that once seemed distant are already being fulfilled through signs unfolding around us, examined with the same evidentiary precision he brought to every artifact. IF THE BIBLE IS RIGHT ABOUT THE PAST, AND IT IS, THEN ITS WORDS ABOUT THE FUTURE CANNOT BE IGNORED.

This is a smart, funny, and deeply relatable guidebook for women trying to navigate every part of their life with humor, honesty, and heart. From forgotten passwords to rediscovering passions, it's a laugh-out-loud reminder that the middle years aren't something to survive--they're something to celebrate. Using expert advice, exercises, and analysis to help readers figure out how they landed where they are now, authors Lindsay Goldwert and Gabrielle Moss offer practical information and guidance about values and goals as it pertains to love and sex, money and career, and friends and family.

Blockers : rebels in the deep state by October 27, 2026
An inside look at the early days of Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, as told by the public servants it targeted and one of America’s best storytellers. Blockers. It wasn’t a compliment. In the new Washington, it was the worst thing you could be—especially if you worked in the federal government and wanted to keep your job. A Blocker was a holdover, an impediment, someone who didn't get the message—and, most of all, someone who didn't belong. Michael Lewis found six of them. Blockers is the story of people who believed they had a calling, who were convinced they were doing something the country couldn’t do without, and then discovered they were no longer wanted. One kept Americans’ most sensitive tax data out of the wrong hands and another made sure that politicians and civil servants played by the rules. One figured out how to stop wildfires from destroying suburban neighborhoods, another helped uncover the mysteries of cystic fibrosis. There was also a security guard. It should come as no surprise that the writer who made subprime mortgages gripping (The Big Short) and who turned baseball statistics into poetry (Moneyball) could transform the first two years of the second Trump administration into a thriller about federal employees. But he does. And he does something else. He puts before us a clear question: If these public servants can’t survive in government today, then what does that say about us?

They shall not see the dawn : the manhunt for the Third Reich's most wanted by October 27, 2026
MAY 1945. THE REICH IS IN RUINS. Hitler is dead. Yet for the US Army’s Counter Intelligence Corps, the real war has just begun. They Shall Not See the Dawn is the true historical thriller by bestselling historian Charles Lachman that follows a unit of American agents, drawn from every walk of life, hunting Hitler’s dangerous henchmen still at large. It was a race against time to capture World War II’s most notorious Nazis before they could vanish or rally a new resistance. The CIC men were college students, linguists, an actor, young draftees, and refugees armed with guns, intellect, intuition, and sheer daring. Their quarry included Ernst Kaltenbrunner, the Gestapo chief; Julius Streicher, Hitler’s “Jewbaiter”; Robert Ley, master of slave labor; and other war criminals desperate to escape justice. Against all odds, the CIC brought them down, ensuring their places in the dock at Nuremberg. Upon the eightieth anniversary of the Nuremberg hangings, They Shall Not See the Dawn resurrects America’s “G-men in khakis,” the men who ensured that the architects of Nazi horror would never walk free.

"Red meat for gridiron devotees, with plenty of dish on the biz.” —KIRKUS REVIEWS Terry Bradshaw explores what it really means to be Terry Bradshaw. For more than fifty years, Terry Bradshaw has been one of the most recognizable figures in American culture. A Hall of Fame quarterback who led the Pittsburgh Steelers to four Super Bowl victories, Bradshaw didn’t fade quietly into retirement. Instead, he reinvented himself—again and again—as a movie and television actor, a beloved NFL broadcaster, and a larger-than-life personality whose humor and self-deprecation made him a household name far beyond football. In Looking for Terry, his first memoir in more than two decades, Bradshaw finally pulls back the curtain on the persona the public thinks it knows. With trademark candor and wit, he examines how a reputation for being “not too smart” followed him throughout his career—and how he learned to embrace it rather than fight it. By leaning into the jokes, Bradshaw discovered that humor could be both a shield and a superpower. The result was the goofy, always-game-for-a-laugh Terry Bradshaw that fans came to love. But behind the punchlines was a more complicated man, one who sometimes felt trapped by the very character he helped create. This memoir is not just a reflection on fame and perception; it’s an unflinching look at vulnerability. Bradshaw opens up about his struggle with depression, his deeply personal battle with cancer, and the role his faith played in carrying him through his darkest moments. This memoir is raw, moving, and unexpectedly tender, revealing a side of Bradshaw rarely seen on television. By turns hilarious, heartfelt, and deeply inspiring, Looking for Terry is a story about resilience, reinvention, and the courage it takes to tell the truth about yourself—even when the world thinks it already knows who you are. Readers will laugh right along with Terry and ultimately come away with a deeper appreciation for the man behind the legend.

What to remember when you are forgetting : how to live and thrive with memory loss, Alzheimer's, and other dementias by October 27, 2026
Media darling and director of Memory and Healthy Aging at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Dr. Zaldy Tan’s What to Remember When You Are Forgetting shares the definitive guide to thriving with dementia for the recently diagnosed and their caregivers. What if a dementia diagnosis could be an invitation to live? What if the first phase of the disease could be a catalyst to embrace a long-forgotten dream? Or to finally resolve a festering family conflict? Or to make new friends and create new, cherished memories? Renowned memory and Alzheimer’s disease specialist, researcher, educator, and author Dr. Zaldy Tan, the Harvard-trained director of the Cedars-Sinai Memory and Healthy Aging Program, shares the definitive guide to thriving with dementia. On these pages, you’ll meet patients like Angela, who had worked as a singer in a Hollywood lounge before her children were born and dreamed of stardom. Instead, Angela put her dreams aside to raise her family. But after her diagnosis of early-onset dementia, instead of shutting down or continuing to prioritize others over herself, Angela embraced her career anew and traveled the country performing with a local singing group. You’ll also meet Marcel, who considered Alzheimer’s as a wake-up call to recalibrate his life priorities, and Mary-Louise, who didn’t have family nearby to rely on but found an advocate in a new friend she met in a writing group. With an incredibly thorough and deeply comforting approach, Dr. Tan tackles everything from how to have a conversation with a person experiencing early memory loss, to how to prepare for an initial assessment for Alzheimer’s, and what accommodations and interventions are needed for every stage and type of dementia. He delves into the surprisingly hopeful research on new treatment and caregiving resources everyone should know, and reveals how other families and remarkable individuals he’s treated over the years have handled both difficult challenges and incredible triumphs after diagnosis.
Gouged : the end of a fair price--and what that means for your wallet by October 27, 2026
American made : stories of work from the WPA by October 27, 2026
During the Great Depression, out-of-work writers were hired by the federal government to interview American working-class workers about their jobs. What was it like working in a meatpacking plant in Chicago? To make a living as a Portuguese fisherman in Massachusetts? A farmer in Nebraska? A Polish ironworker building the New York City subway? The result of this project was over 2,000 first person written accounts of working life, from as many workers, many of whom were first generation immigrants. Those interviews were laboriously catalogued and digitized by the Library of Congress, and a representative slice are presented to you here. American Made is the engaging, sometimes brutal, always personable stories of workers, told in union halls, at crowded kitchen tables, and during breaks: reading them is both like watching a period drama and peeking into a diary. The book lays bare the immigrant journeys and working lives of those responsible for the nation's 20th century manufacturing and economic prowess. Through this book you will learn what has changed in America since then--and what has not. With an introduction by Kim Kelly, author of Fight Like Hell: The Untold History of American Labor.

Into the quiet : following Jesus in a world of noise by October 27, 2026
A profound exploration of the ache for quiet in a chaotic, noisy time of overstimulation and distraction—and the transformative effects of solitude, silence, and stillness—from the New York Times bestselling author of Practicing the Way and The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry. “The noise of the world doesn’t just hurt your ears—it harms your soul. John Mark Comer shows in this wonderful book how to step back from the world and find God in stillness.”—Arthur C. Brooks, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Build the Life You Want Modern living is inundated with noise, busyness, and a digital cycle fueled by outrage and fear. We are anxious, overstimulated, exhausted, and bone-dry in our souls. We ache for God yet can barely pay attention. Drawing on the wisdom of the contemplative tradition and spiritual practices that date back to the earliest centuries of the church, Comer invites readers to rediscover an ancient path of quiet, peace, and serenity—to step out of the chronic noise and constant motion of the modern world into the still, silent presence of the God of peace. What The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry was to the speed of the modern world, this book is to the noise of it. As with the pace of modern living, the volume of the modern world can cut off our hearts from God, colonize our minds, and make “practicing the presence of God” virtually impossible. It can damage our bodies and degrade our spirits. Comer is convinced quiet is the antidote—not just the quiet of a retreat or a morning hour, but an intentional quest to de-noise your overall life. And in doing so, to live just a little slower and softer before God.

Why we ask why : the science of explanation and the human drive to understand by October 27, 2026
An insightful look at the science of explanation, using psychology, philosophy, and stories to reveal surprising truths about how we make sense of ourselves and the world Humans are explanation-seeking creatures. We wonder why there’s traffic, why a friend behaved a certain way, why the sky is blue, and—in moments of existential reflection— why we are here. Over the last twenty-five years, renowned cognitive scientist Tania Lombrozo has turned this explanation-seeking tendency back on itself to ask: Why do humans explain? What does explanation do for us? And, most important, how can we do it better? In Why We Ask Why, Lombrozo takes readers on a journey into the depths of explanation, exploring the role that this fundamental cognitive process plays for each of us as we engage with others and the world around us. She reveals what makes some explanations more satisfying than others, why we seek simpler explanations (and whether we should), how explanations drive learning, and the role of explanations in creating meaning and igniting change. Along the way, she provides crucial tools to refine the craft of explanation—for ourselves, for others, and to build a better world. Through scientific studies and lively stories, we come to appreciate that explanations aren’t simply facts that describe the past—they’re also mental acts that decide the future. Astute, thought-provoking, and constantly surprising, Why We Ask Why is a book that offers explanations for questions you didn’t even know you had.
This cursed beautiful land : a Russian-American story by October 27, 2026
The “enthralling” (New York Times), much-anticipated memoir from the Wall Street Journal reporter who was wrongly imprisoned in Putin’s Russia for more than a year—a glimpse inside the perils and contradictions of a country in the midst of autocracy “Propulsive . . . a taut thriller.”—Patrick Radden Keefe, #1 New York Times bestselling author of London Falling “Beautiful writing . . . a phenomenal book.”—Jon Stewart, The Daily Show “Compelling . . . an intimate first-person account. He brings us right inside his prison cell. . . . I can’t recommend the book highly enough. . . . A great story.”—George Stephanopoulos, on Good Morning America (9/28/26) NAMED ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF FALL BY: The New York Times Book Review, Lit Hub, New York Post, Town & Country, The Times (UK) In March 2023, a year after Russia invaded Ukraine, Evan Gershkovich met with a union boss connected with a Russian tank factory. As the journalist sat with his source in an empty restaurant in an industrial city 900 miles east of Moscow, a squad of masked agents charged in, blindfolded Evan, and dragged him into an unmarked van. The agents were from the FSB, Putin’s powerful security service, and the successor to the Soviet-era KGB. Five years earlier, Evan had arrived in Moscow to jumpstart his journalism career. His parents had left the Soviet Union in the 1970s, forging a middle-class life in New Jersey, where Evan grew up on Soviet-era cartoons and weekend trips to Brighton Beach. In Moscow, Evan dove into life—unpacking politics for readers of The Moscow Times and developing a circle of deep friendships with Russian peers, all striving to make their way in perilous times. Western journalists had long felt insulated from the dangers their Russian counterparts experienced. But war, it seemed, had changed the rules. Interrogated for hours after his arrest, Evan was told he was being charged with spying and thrown in Moscow’s notorious Lefortovo prison—a pawn in a geopolitical chess match. After his world suddenly shrunk to a tiny, cement-walled cell, Evan did something remarkable: he continued reporting. For the next sixteen months, he documented a life in Russia that few Westerners will ever experience: its sprawling prison system, with its own vocabulary and customs—and surprising pockets of humanity. In writing by turns riveting and humorous, Evan brings readers inside the events leading to his arrest, his nearly 500 days in Russian prisons, and the blockbuster, multi-country prisoner swap that freed him. More than a prison memoir, This Cursed Beautiful Land is an extraordinary, deeply reported chronicle of a misunderstood people and their land—marked at once by stunning beauty and a haunting history.

Out of the shadows : revealing the truth about non-human intelligent life by October 27, 2026
The long-awaited, explosive memoir by former senior intelligence official Jay Stratton, the central figure in the U.S. Government's modern investigation of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) and non-human intelligent life. For over 16 years, Stratton investigated UAP and non-human intelligent life on behalf of the federal government. While serving at the Defense Intelligence Agency, Stratton learned of UAP incursions over nuclear weapon sites, leading him to co-found the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Application Program (AAWSAP), the first official U.S. Government program to investigate UAP since the closure of the Air Force's Project Blue Book. Operating in the shadows of the intelligence community, Stratton discovered an 80-year coverup of the existence of non-human intelligent life and fought back against powerful gatekeepers who have hid the truth from the public, Congress, and even Presidents. While risking everything in pursuit of the truth, he created and led the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), the first whole-of-government investigation of UAP, forcing the nation to confront the unknown. Now, Stratton breaks his silence to provide a startling first-hand account of the shocking discoveries, encounters, challenges, and behind-the-scenes revelations that profoundly altered his understanding of humanity's place in the universe and took a disturbing toll on him and his family. A bombshell account and a definitive memoir that reads like a political thriller, Out of the Shadows is a high-stakes journey into the deepest and most significant mystery in human history.

The Zorg : a tale of greed and murder that inspired the abolition of slavery by October 13, 2026
"A book of great importance and one that will likely become a classic." - New York Times Book Review One of The New York Times' 100 Most Notable Books of 2025 A Time Magazine Must-Read Book of 2025 A New Yorker Essential Read From the Pulitzer Finalist and New York Times bestselling author of Cobalt Red: How the Blood of the Congo Powers Our Lives Perfect for fans of David Grann’s The Wager and The Wide, Wide Sea by Hampton Sides In late October 1780, a slave ship set sail from the Netherlands, bound for Africa’s Windward and Gold Coasts, where it would take on its human cargo. The Zorg (a Dutch word meaning “care”) was one of thousands of such ships, but the harrowing events that ensued on its doomed journey were unique. By the time its journey ends, the Zorg would become the first undeniable argument against slavery. When a series of unpredictable weather events and navigational errors led to the Zorg sailing off course and running low on supplies, the ship's captain threw more than a hundred slaves overboard in order to save the crew and the most valuable slaves. The ship's owners then claimed their loss on insurance, a first for slaves who had not been killed due to insurrection or died of natural causes. The insurers refused to pay due to the higher than usual mortality rate of the slaves on board, leading to a trial which initially found in their favor, in which the Chief Justice compared the slaves to horses. Thanks to the outrage of one man present in court that day, a retrial was held. For the first time, concepts such as human rights and morality entered the discourse on slavery in a courtroom case that boiled down to a simple yet profound question: Were the Africans on board people or cargo? What followed was a fascinating legal drama in England’s highest court that turned the brutal calculus of slavery into front-page news. The case of the Zorg catapulted the nascent anti-slavery movement from a minor evangelical cause to one of the most consequential moral campaigns in history―sparking the abolitionist movement in both England and the young United States. The Zorg is the astonishing yet little-known true story of the most consequential ship that ever crossed the Atlantic.
Said the dead by October 13, 2026
From the award-winning author of A Ghost in the Throat comes a time-traversing, form-defying, genre-morphing story of a reader unraveling the legacies of a fabled asylum and the women who haunt its halls. In Cork, Ireland, a derelict Victorian mental hospital is being converted into modern apartments. One passerby has always flinched as she nears the place. In another time, she might have found herself held within those walls. She notices a sign, the first of many. Guided by an irresistible impulse, she follows them. FOR SALE. The letter L, broken free from a pane of stained glass. Whispers from the river. She trespasses, steals, absconds from the routines of her life—mother, spouse, daughter—as she hears a chorus of insistent voices. They murmur from archives, old casebooks that recorded their progress and failures—no change. They slip through stairwells and walls. They are the women who knew this place best, and with them—with one in particular—she feels a connection. She is drawn out; she knocks on a door in the night. Will this investigation, this journey, this haunting, take her too far into the past or will it bring her to a new understanding of what she might yet make of the future? A work of intense attention and tenderness, Doireann Ní Ghríofa's Said the Dead breaks boundaries between past and present, the imagined and real, history and fiction, to make something new and lasting. An investigation into the dangers of knowing our selves and the past, it is an experience like no other—a ghost story and a reclamation.
The steps : a memoir by October 13, 2026
A gritty, inspiring, heart-wrenching memoir by the Academy Award-winning legend and icon Sylvester Stallone, about his unlikely path to stardom and the creation of the greatest underdog story ever told. In the fifty years since Sylvester Stallone ran up the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum, he and those steps have become symbols of resilience and determination, and have inspired millions from all over the world to pursue their dreams. In The Steps, Stallone recounts how he pursued his own dreams. A culmination of decades of reflection, Sly shares where he came from - a difficult birth, an even more difficult childhood, years of struggle in school being misunderstood - and he explains how the real story of a successful life is built by facing, embracing and ultimately overcoming our challenges. It's found in the distances we are willing to go and the steps we must take to get from where we are to where we want to go. In a narrative framed between Stallone's arrival in New York City in 1969 and the triumph of Rocky at the 1977 Academy Awards, Sly weaves a vivid and propulsive portrait of struggle, subsistence and ultimately success. He writes of his early days and later years, too, and the persistence, creativity and resilience that led not only to the creation of Rocky but to a career filled with remarkably iconic roles. The Steps is a testament to Stallone's extraordinary life and a profound meditation on the importance of vision and willpower and hard work.
A shadow over the world : Franklin D. Roosevelt, the rise of fascism, and the making of America's World War II by October 13, 2026
From New York Times bestselling author William I. Hitchcock, a riveting, revelatory portrait of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the lead-up to World War II, tracing his—and America’s—awakening to the threat of fascism. How did FDR and the American public respond to the rise of dictators across Europe and Asia on the eve of World War II? The familiar narrative is that they reacted with indifference and embraced isolationism. Only with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor were Americans reluctantly drawn into the global conflict. But distinguished historian William I. Hitchcock reveals a far more complex and surprising story. From the time Mussolini came to power in 1922 to America’s entry into the war in 1941, Americans engaged in a fraught national debate over the rising threat—and for some, the lure—of fascism. At the center of this debate was Roosevelt himself. When he took office in 1933, Roosevelt was determined to avoid foreign entanglements that would harm his ambitious domestic agenda of the New Deal. But over the course of his first two terms, a network of journalists, activists, advisers, and diplomats gradually awakened him to the global dangers of fascism. Roosevelt’s transformation was part of a larger national reckoning with authoritarianism around the world. A Shadow Over the World shines a light on a time when a coalition of courageous humanists gathered around a visionary leader to forge a new purpose for America: to protect democracy, oppose imperialism, support human rights, and lead a global fight for freedom. Their successful struggle against the dark forces of fascism holds powerful lessons for our own perilous times.
The phantom : the untold story of the American marine the Nazis could not kill by October 13, 2026
Soldier, spy, scout, saboteur, and French Resistance leader in the heart of Nazi-occupied Europe--the untold story of Marine legend Pete Ortiz. Major Pierre “Pete” Ortiz was a Manhattan-born and Paris-educated polymath fluent in five languages. An adventuresome French Foreign Legion veteran specifically recruited by "Wild" Bill Donovan’s Office of Strategic Services (the precursor to both the CIA and U.S. Special Forces) upon his enlistment in the Marines, Ortiz was the officer “Wild Bill” instinctively knew he needed and could rely on to complete a string of clandestine missions. While recuperating from gunshot wounds received during a behind-the-lines excursion into enemy-held North Africa, Ortiz delivered his After-Action Report directly to Donovan in Washington. After reading it, “Wild Bill” scrawled across the top of the report: “Please re-employ this man as soon as possible.” Ortiz’s handlers heeded Donovan’s request. Within a year Ortiz was surreptitiously parachuted into the Haute Savoie region of Occupied France, where he made contact with the resistance fighters who called themselves Maquisards. By the time he retired as a United States Marine Corps colonel, he received two Navy Crosses for extraordinary heroism in World War II. He was one of the very few U.S. Marines to serve in combat in Europe during World War II, and one of the most decorated Marine officers of the war.
Darkness becomes bright : on the brief life and immortal art of Edgar Allan Poe by October 13, 2026
A fascinating and intimate inquiry into Edgar Allan Poe’s shadowy life and horrifyingly compelling work—and why we are drawn to darkness in art Since Edgar Allan Poe’s mysterious death in 1849, his stories and poems have captivated millions of readers around the world. Nearly two centuries later, why do we continue to descend into the darkness of his imagination—and of the genres, from horror to crime, that he pioneered? In this spellbinding and singular book, Guggenheim Fellow and Whiting grant recipient Emily Ogden plumbs the darkness within Poe and enters it alongside him. She interweaves stories from his mysterious and tragic life—from his strange disappearances and tortured romances to his nearly fatal use of opium—with those of his most famous readers and translators, including poet Charles Baudelaire, writer Julio Cortázar, and psychoanalyst Marie Bonaparte, a descendant of Napoleon and a patient of Sigmund Freud. Tracing their passionate attachments to Poe—and Ogden’s own, unexpectedly sparked when she taught an introductory Poe course at the University of Virginia, where Poe himself was once a student—Darkness Becomes Bright makes a different case for literature from the one we most often hear. This exquisite volume shows how Poe’s vision echoes across the generations, allowing us to make peace with our own flawed humanity.

Cold-case detective Raquel Laing faces new threats and long-buried secrets in this gripping novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes series. SFPD Homicide Inspector Raquel Laing had what might politely be termed a “difficult childhood,” until she was taken in by a loving family at the age of nine. She still lives with her adoptive sister, Dee, an online investigator for organizations all over the world. Trouble arrives with an all-too-common case for Inspector Laing: the homicide of a drug dealer in a deserted corner of San Francisco. But the everyday rapidly spirals into complications—just as a simple search into the family’s ancestry is throwing Dee into her own world of turmoil. Raquel’s case blows up far too close to home, thanks in part to the illicit shortcuts she took in the investigation, and while her unique skills are too valuable for the SFPD to suspend her entirely, she is removed from Homicide and put onto the Cold Case Unit. On the one hand, Cold Case lets her work with her friend and mentor, Al Hawkin. On the other, it leaves her free to look at some disturbing facts about her past—and at the devastating news that Dee has uncovered in her own search for the truth. Cold cases heat up, the distant past intrudes, and two sisters begin to suspect that they are tied together in ways they never imagined—ways that threaten attention from a powerful and vicious international cartel. Because the truth is, those who are gone . . . have never truly left.

The unknown : a novel by October 27, 2026
THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In 1926, five women disappeared from a remote island in Vermont. Now, one hundred years later, it’s happening again. Struggling actress Marin Keane is shocked when she lands a role in a major motion picture about the unsolved mystery of New Avalon, an island on sprawling Lake Faraday in Vermont. She’s even more surprised when she learns that the role requires a weeklong research trip to that very spot. Because New Avalon isn’t your ordinary island. A century ago, it was a commune for spiritual mediums—until they all vanished in 1926. The only trace of them was five dresses hanging from the branches of an old oak tree in the middle of the island, one for each missing woman. Some locals say they simply left. Others think they were murdered. But the prevailing opinion, thanks to a diary left behind by one of the vanished, a young woman named Daisy Rue, is that a séance gone wrong conjured something supernatural that took them all one by one. Not long after arriving, Marin and her castmates, including legendary actress Violet Wright and white-hot director Ronan Peters, begin to realize all is not right with New Avalon. They hear strange noises in the night and notice mysterious symbols left behind by the island's previous occupants. And after a sudden health emergency leaves Marin, Ronan, and the other actors stranded on the island, the disappearances begin again. Is it the work of someone trying to derail the movie? Or is the island’s alleged supernatural past catching up with the present? As fear and suspicion mount, Marin turns to Daisy’s diary, hoping it holds the key to figuring out what really happened to the women of New Avalon—and how to keep the island’s terrible history from repeating itself.

And the next call could be a wealthy biotech executive beaten to death in his home office—but what was Larry Chu’s mistake? The victim’s corpse is so mangled and damaged it’s hard to believe a lone, unarmed assailant could have managed it. The killer was clearly unnaturally strong—and smart enough to find a way into Chu’s highly secure building. Most of all, whoever did this was very, very angry. The excessive violence leads Dallas to conclude that this was a deeply personal act, born of a rage that she can’t excuse but can understand thanks to her own traumatic past. And though the motive seems rooted in heated emotion rather than cold hard cash, she can’t ignore the suspicious bank account in the Cayman Islands, or the shadowy, profit-hungry company Chu worked for. The mystery only grows when it turns out Chu isn’t the only victim—and Dallas will need to tear through one layer of secrecy after another to reveal what lies behind this explosion of fury...

Luckily for him, whether you’re uptown or down, everyone speaks the same language of violence—Pepper is a native speaker. 1986.
