Paperback. Zustand: Good. Life passes quickly. I guess you could say I am near the end of my life span. The experience I have had I would like to share. The poetry I have written is somewhat like a diary. A lot of it was written at crucial periods in my life. As I look back, my writing was significant at that time and proves to be somewhat of a time capsule. I hope you will enjoy the experience and maybe see things a little more differently. I guess you could say I was successful. I made it through life and achieved the things that most people want and need a lot of; it is just vanity. So, I lift my glass and salute the future and hope our new technology can overcome our current challenges, thus allowing a new freedom for those of us who endured the hardships of a learning disability.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A beloved schoolteacher chronicles the meteoric rise of his most dazzling student in this ambitious, big-hearted story of learning and legacy. Mr. Keating is an extraordinary teacher: brilliant, dedicated, and possibly a few pages ahead in a book no one else is reading. He's a magician, able to enchant fourteen-year-olds into a love of writing and literature. Yet no student has lived up to the promise of their potential more than Clara Hightower. Over the course of three decades, Clara goes from kindergarten thief to a high school genius, Silicon Valley celebrity, and, finally, animal rights activist turned terrorist. But to tell Clara's story, Mr. Keating must tell his own, including his courtship and marriage, his dreams of writing and comedy, his days in the classroom in lower Manhattan and his rivalry and friendship with his head of school, and his eventual stroke and the isolation that follows. Fiercely original, The Optimists is a love story, a joke book, and a meditation on the meaning of life and death. Tender and insightful, it's a profound testament to the lessons that reach far beyond the classroom.&nbsp.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. In the bestselling tradition of The Interestings and A Little Life, this keenly felt and expertly written novel by the author of the savvy, heartfelt, and utterly engaging (Alice McDermott) Bed-Stuy Is Burning follows four longtime friends as they navigate love, commitment, and forgiveness while the world around them changes beyond recognition. New York City is still regaining its balance in the years following 9/11, when four twenty-somethings--Tess, Tazio, David, and Angelica--meet in a bar, each yearning for something: connection, recognition, a place in the world, a cause to believe in. Nearly fifteen years later, as their city recalibrates in the wake of the 2016 election, their bond has endured--but almost everything else has changed. As freshmen at Cooper Union, Tess and Tazio were the ambitious, talented future of the art world--but by thirty-six, Tess is married to David, the mother of two young boys, and working as an understudy on Broadway. Kind and steady, David is everything Tess lacked in her own childhood--but a recent freak accident has left him with befuddling symptoms, and she's still adjusting to her new role as caretaker. Meanwhile, Tazio--who once had a knack for earning the kind of attention that Cooper Union students long for--has left the art world for a career in creative branding and politics. But in December 2016, fresh off the astonishing loss of his candidate, Tazio is adrift, and not even his gorgeous and accomplished fianc e, Angelica, seems able to get through to him. With tensions rising on the national stage, the four friends are forced to face the reality of their shared histories, especially a long-ago betrayal that has shaped every aspect of their friendship. Elegant and perceptive, The Body Politic explores the meaning of commitment; the nature of forgiveness; the way that buried secrets will always find their way to the surface; and how all of it can shift--and eventually erupt--over the course of a life. …

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Do the Right Thing meets The Bonfire of the Vanities, in this thrilling debut novel about marriage, gentrification, parenthood, race, and the dangerous bargains we make with ourselves (Ann Packer, New York Times bestselling author) set over the course of one cataclysmic day when riots erupt in a rapidly gentrifying Brooklyn neighborhood. Aaron, a disgraced rabbi turned Wall Street banker, and Amelia, his journalist girlfriend, live with their newborn in Bedford-Stuyvesant, one of the most dynamic, historical, and volatile neighborhoods in New York City. The infusion of upwardly mobile professionals into Bed-Stuy's historic brownstones belies the tension simmering on the streets below. But after a cop shoots a boy in a nearby park, conflict escalates to rioting--with Aaron and his family at its center. Pulled into the riot's vortex are Antoinette, devout nanny to Aaron and Amelia's son; Jupiter, the single father who lives on their block with his son, Derek; Daniel, Aaron's unhinged tenant in their basement unit; and Sara, a smart high school dropout broiling with confusion and rage. As the day unfolds, these diverse characters are forced to reckon with who they are and what truly matters to them. Through the lens of one catastrophic day emerges a nuanced portrait of a changing neighborhood and its residents as they struggle to raise children, establish careers, and find love, fulfillment, and meaning in their lives.
