Thrilling --Simon WinchesterA genuine masterpiece --Gary Shteyngart Spellbinding, moving--evoking a fascinating region on the other side of the world--this suspenseful and haunting story announces the debut of a profoundly gifted writer. One August afternoon, on the shoreline of the Kamchatka peninsula at the northeastern edge of Russia, two girls--sisters, eight and eleven--go missing. In the ensuing weeks, then months, the police investigation turns up nothing. Echoes of the disappearance reverberate across a tightly woven community, with the fear and loss felt most deeply among its women.

We are transported to vistas of rugged beauty--densely wooded forests, open expanses of tundra, soaring volcanoes, and the glassy seas that border Japan and Alaska--and into a region as complex as it is alluring, where social and ethnic tensions have long simmered, and where outsiders are often the first to be accused. In a story as propulsive as it is emotionally engaging, and through a young writer's virtuosic feat of empathy and imagination, this powerful novel brings us to a new understanding of the intricate bonds of family and community, in a Russia unlike any we have seen before.…

Zustand: Fair. The Hollywood memoir that tells all . . . Sex. Drugs. Greed. Why, it sounds just like a movie.--The New York Times Every memoir claims to bare it all, but Julia Phillips's actually does. This is an addictive, gloves-off expos from the producer of the classic films The Sting, Taxi Driver, and Close Encounters of the Third Kind--and the first woman ever to win an Academy Award for Best Picture--who made her name in Hollywood during the halcyon seventies and the yuppie-infested eighties and lived to tell the tale. Wickedly funny and surprisingly moving, You'll Never Eat Lunch in This Town Again takes you on a trip through the dream-manufacturing capital of the world and into the vortex of drug addiction and rehab on the arm of one who saw it all, did it all, and took her leave. Praise for You'll Never Eat Lunch in This Town Again One of the most honest books ever written about one of the most dishonest towns ever created.--The Boston Globe Gossip too hot for even the National Enquirer . . . Julia Phillips is not so much Hollywood's Boswell as its Dante.--Los Angeles Magazine A blistering look at La La Land.--USA Today One of the nastiest, tastiest tell-alls in showbiz history.--People From the Hardcover edition.…
