I Am Jackie Robinson

Brad Meltzer
"Jackie Robinson always loved sports, especially baseball. He could run, leap, and throw better than any other kid around. Even though Jackie was a great athlete, he wasn't allowed on the best teams just because of the color of his skin. Jackie knew that sports were best when everyone, of every color, played together. He became the first black baseball player on a major-league team, and his bravery helped lead the way to equality in all sports in America."--Back cover.

Going Into Town - Signed / Autographed Copy

Roz Chast
SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, ROZ CHAST! From the #1 NYT bestselling author of Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?, Roz Chast's new graphic memoir--a hilarious illustrated ode/guide/thank-you note to Manhattan as only she could write it. For native Brooklynite Roz Chast, adjusting to life in the suburbs (where people own trees!?) was surreal. But she recognized that for her kids, the reverse was true. On trips into town, they would marvel at the strange world of Manhattan: its gum-wad-dotted sidewalks, honey-combed streets, and "those West Side Story-things" (fire escapes). Their wonder inspired Going into Town, part playful guide, part New York stories, and part love letter to the city, told through Chast's laugh-out-loud, touching, and true cartoons.

The Five Books of Moses

Alter, Robert
Through a distinguished career of critical scholarship and translation, Robert Alter has equipped us to read the Hebrew Bible as a powerful, cohesive work of literature. The culmination of this work, Alter's masterly new translation and probing commentary combine to give contemporary readers the definitive edition of The Five Books . Alter's majestic translation recovers the mesmerizing effect of these ancient stories—the profound and haunting enigmas, the ambiguities of motive and image, and the distinctive cadences and lovely precision of the Hebrew text. Other modern translations either recast these features for contemporary clarity, thereby losing the character of the original, or fail to give readers a suitably fluid English as a point of contact. Alter's translation conveys the music and the meaning of the Hebrew text in a lyrical, lucid English. His accompanying commentary illuminates the text with learned insight and reflection on its literary and historical dimensions.

In order not to be separated, they allow their friendship to blossom into love and marriage, and start a new life on the Lower East Side, working at grueling, poorly paid jobs. Decades later, through talent, faith, fortune, and relentless hard work, Jakob has achieved success in the diamond business, invested in real estate in New York, and shown his son, Max, that America is truly the land of opportunity.

Whispers Under Ground

Ben Aaronovitch
FANTASY. My name is Peter Grant and until January I was just a probationary constable in that mighty army for justice known to all right-thinking people as the Metropolitan Police Service (and as the Filth to everybody else). Then one night, in pursuance of a murder inquiry, I tried to take a witness statement from someone who was dead but disturbingly voluble, and that brought me to the attention of Inspector Nightingale, the last wizard in England. Now I'm a Detective Constable and a trainee wizard, the first apprentice in fifty years, and my world has become somewhat more complicated: nests of vampires in Purley, negotiating a truce between the warring god and goddess of the Thames, and digging up graves in Covent Garden ... and there's something festering at the heart of the city I love, a malicious vengeful spirit that takes ordinary Londoners and twists them into grotesque mannequins to act out its drama of violence and despair.

Only in America

Golden, Harry
If you read only one book this year you'll want it to be "Only in America" because Only in America could there be a Harry Golden - a cigar-chomping, scalpel-wielding individualist who loves people and has become the author of this No.1 best-seller. And Only in America could this happen to a book which deflates sham with rapier wit - routs prejudice with a laugh from the belly - casts an eye on womanhood from Cleopatra to Debbie Reynolds - gives a "recipe" for chopped chicken liver and schmaltz - reveals there are no homely girls - tells how to get a husband - describes buying a winter suit on the hottest day of the year - and contains laughter, warmth, wit, wisdom and the indescribable personality of Harry Golden on every wonderful page.

Sex and Rage Advice to Young Ladies Eager for a Good Time

Eve Babitz
She was a golden girl, Malibu was her paradise, a surfboard was her home. Then she discovered Beverly Hills. Champagne sipped from the glass slipper, mansions of money, men who were passionate about elegance, and men who were just passionate. She was the life of the party, and the party never stopped. Until one day she woke up to find that the glitter was gone. But there was always New York. And in the glamour of the Russian Tea Room, wooed by the hottest literary agent in the town, Jacaranda realized that there might be more to paradise than riding the perfect wave. ----- "Sensuous --- Sophisticated --- Witty --- a light loveliness of phrasing worthy of Fitzgerald". "Perfectly delightful form start to finish".
