Zustand: Very Good. Americans today are working harder, working longer and yet for most of us, in this time of ruthless downsizing and political cronyism, job security, a decent standard of living and a comfortable retirement are becoming harder and harder to find. In this brilliantly funny and right-on-target diatribe , irreverent everyman Michael Moore gives his own bold views on who's behin d the fading of the American dream. Whether issuing Corporate Crook trading cards, organizing a Rodney King Commemorative Riot, sending a donation to Pat Buchanan from the John Wayne Gacy fan club (which was accepted) or trying to commit former right-wing congressman Bob Dornan to a mental hospital, the in-your-face host of TV Nation and director/star of Roger & Me combines an expansive wit with biting social commentary to make you think and laugh at the same time.

"[Alarcón's] tales, set largely in the hardscrabble world of Lima, build wi th all the power of a Flannery O'Connor story: a gentle enough start, an in nocent setting, and before long the reader is adrift in a drama that defies the imagination-with characters that live long after the book is closed." - Washington Post Book World In this exquisite story collection, Daniel Alarcón moves from Third World urban centers to the fault lines that divide nations and people to illuminate wars, both national and internal, waged in jungles, across the borders, in the streets of Lima, and in the intimacy of New York apartments. He tells of lives at the margins: an unrepentant terrorist remembers where it all began, a would-be emigrant contemplates the ramifications of leaving and never coming back, a reporter turns in his pad and pencil for the inglorious costume of a street clown. War by Candlelight is a devastating portrait of a world in flux from an extraordinary new voice in literary fiction, one you will not soon forget.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Only one generation in history (ours) will experience life both with and wi thout the Internet. For everyone who follows us, online life will simply be the air they breathe. Today, we revel in ubiquitous information and consta nt connection, rarely stopping to consider the implications for our logged- on lives. Michael Harris chronicles this massive shift, exploring what we?fve gained-and lost-in the bargain. In this eloquent and thought-provoking book, Harris argues that our greatest loss has been that of absence itself-of silence, wonder and solitude. It?fs a surprisingly precious commodity, and one we have less of every year. Drawing on a vast trove of research and scores of interviews with global experts, Harris explores this ?gloss of lack?h in chapters devoted to every corner of our lives, from sex and commerce to memory and attention span. The book?fs message is urgent: once we?fve lost the gift of absence, we may never remember its value.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The gripping inside story of the 2008 presidential election, by two of the best political reporters in the country. "It's one of the best books on politics of any kind I've read. For entertai nment value, I put it up there with Catch 22." -The Financial Times "It transports you to a parallel universe in which everything in the Nation al Enquirer is true.More interesting is what we learn about the candidat es themselves: their frailties, egos and almost super-human stamina." -The Financial Times "I can't put down this book!" -Stephen Colbert Game Change is the New York Times bestselling story of the 2008 presidentia l election, by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, two of the best political reporters in the country. In the spirit of Richard Ben Cramer's What It Tak es and Theodore H. White's The Making of the President 1960, this classic c ampaign trail book tells the defining story of a new era in American politi cs, going deeper behind the scenes of the Obama/Biden and McCain/Palin camp aigns than any other account of the historic 2008 election. Editorial Reviews Review "A smoking new book. . . . The real revelation in Game Change: Campaigns tu rn our politicians into lunatics." -- Tina Brown, The Daily Beast "Heilemann and Halperin have conducted hundreds of interviews to provide th e inside story of the 2008 campaign. . . . It vividly shows how character f laws large and small caused Obama's opponents to self-destruct." -- Jacob H eilbrunn, The New York Times Book Review "A thoroughly researched, well-paced and occasionally very amusing read. . . . The result is something that conveys the feel, or perhaps more accurately.

When Irene America discovers that her artist husband, Gil, has been reading her diary, she begins a secret Blue Notebook, stashed securely in a safe-deposit box. There she records the truth about her life and marriage, while turning her Red Diary-hidden where Gil will find it-into a manipulative charade.

And Irene drifts into alcoholism, moving ever closer to the ultimate destruction of a relationship filled with shadowy need and strange ironies.

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. The classic book on the development of human language by the world's leadin g expert on language and the mind. In this classic, the world's expert on language and mind lucidly explains everything you always wanted to know about language: how it works, how children learn it, how it changes, how the brain computes it, and how it evolved. With deft use of examples of humor and wordplay, Steven Pinker weaves our vast knowledge of language into a compelling story: language is a human instinct, wired into our brains by evolution. The Language Instinct received the William James Book Prize from the American Psychological Association and the Public Interest Award from the Linguistics Society of America.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Fast food has hastened the malling of our landscape, widened the chasm betw een rich and poor, fueled an epidemic of obesity, and propelled American cu ltural imperialism abroad. That's a lengthy list of charges, but here Eric Schlosser makes them stick with an artful mix of first-rate reportage, wry wit, and careful reasoning. Schlosser's myth-shattering survey stretches fr om California's subdivisions where the business was born to the industrial corridor along the New Jersey Turnpike where many fast food's flavors are c oncocted. Along the way, he unearths a trove of fascinating, unsettling tru ths -- from the unholy alliance between fast food and Hollywood to the seis mic changes the industry has wrought in food production, popular culture, a nd even real estate. He also uncovers the fast food chains' disturbing effo rts to reel in the youngest, most susceptible consumers even while they hon e their institutionalized exploitation of teenagers and minorities.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Do or Die is the first insider account of teenage gangs--the lives, loves, and battles of children who kill--from the only journalist ever allowed ins ide this closed and dangerous world. This is no West Side Story. Welcome to a world where teenagers wear colostomy bags and have scrapbooks filled with funeral invitations; where a young man, after being shot in the chest, drives himself to the hospital; where another youngster, caught in crossfire, uses his girlfriend as a human shield; where teenage gangsters are kidnapped, tortured, and held for six-figure ransoms; where kids hum the latest movie's theme music while killing people. It's a world of clickheads, sherms, bangers, ballers, and mummyheads; a world where the strongest feelings of family come from other gang members; a world where the most potent feelings of self-worth come from murder.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. From the outrageously filthy and oddly innocent comedienne and star of the powerful 2015 film I Smile Back Sarah Silverman comes a memoir-her first bo ok-that is at once shockingly personal, surprisingly poignant, and still pe e-in-your-pants funny. In this collection of humorous essays, Sarah Silverman tells tales of growi ng up Jewish in New Hampshire, losing her virginity, learning to curse at 3 years old, and being a bedwetter until she was old enough to drive, and in a surprisingly poignant piece, she recounts the accidental death of her in fant brother. Of course, in her loopy, taboo-breaking way, she always manag es somehow to leave you laughing. But then you'd expect nothing less from a woman who sang to her boyfriend on national television that she was "F***i ng Matt Damon." If you like Sarah's television show The Sarah Silverman Program, or memoirs such as Chelsea Handler's Are You There Vodka? It's Me Chelsea and Artie Lange's Too Fat to Fish, you'll love The Bedwetter.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Striving children, aging parents, job pressures, financial anxieties, physi cal ailments, generalized hope and dreadâ??a memoir of middle age that is b oth literary and confessional What is the most baffling period in our lives? Not childhood, not old age, but the decades of our forties and fifties, the period now generously known as middle age. Of all the challenges that face us in this time of reckonin g, the effort to accept the limits of our character, the dwindling of possi bilities, and the gap between our aspirations and reality is perhaps the mo st daunting. It's both an occasion for regret and an opportunity for coming to terms, the moment when we come up against our limits and discoverâ??for better and worseâ??who we are. My Life in the Middle Ages is a portrait, in 12 chapters, of what that unnerving experience is like. A collection of unified essays about the pleasures and pathos that haunt us on the threshold of old age, it charts an original course between reportage and confession. Drawn from the author's own life, from the testimony of parents, children, teachers, and friends, from the books he's read and the life that he chose (and that chose him), My Life in the Middle Ages is a comic and poignant memoir that's both personal and generational.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. In a New York City made phantasmagorical by the events of 9/11, Hans--a ban ker originally from the Netherlands--finds himself marooned among the stran ge occupants of the Chelsea Hotel after his English wife and son return to London. Alone and untethered, feeling lost in the country he had come to re gard as home, Hans stumbles upon the vibrant New York subculture of cricket , where he revisits his lost childhood and, thanks to a friendship with a c harismatic and charming Trinidadian named Chuck Ramkissoon, begins to recon nect with his life and his adopted country. Ramkissoon, a Gatsby-like figur e who is part idealist and part operator, introduces Hans to an other New York populated by immigrants and strivers of every race and nationality. H ans is alternately seduced and instructed by Chuck s particular brand of na ivete and chutzpah--by his ability to a hold fast to a sense of American an d human possibility in which Hans has come to lose faith. Netherland gives us both a flawlessly drawn picture of a little-known New York and a story of much larger, and brilliantly achieved ambition: the grand strangeness and fading promise of 21st century America from an outsider s vantage point, and the complicated relationship between the American dream and the particular dreamers. Most immediately, though, it is the story of one man--of a marriage foundering and recuperating in its mystery and ordinariness, of the shallows and depths of male friendship, of mourning and memory. Joseph O Neill.

Now, after the streamers for her thirtieth birthday celebration have b een taken down, the Japanese-American antiques dealer and part-time sleuth finds herself with an assignment to find and authenticate an ancient Middle Eastern pitcher that disappeared from Iraq's national museum.

But when a devastating typhoon hits Tokyo, Rei is trapped with the object of her investigation-and with much much more than the fate of an ancient pitcher at risk.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. An estimated twenty million American men and women are in relationships in which the man has stopped being sexually intimate. Is the problem physical, emotional, or psychological-or are these guys simply bored with their part ners? To find answers, bestselling author and relationship expert Dr. Bob Berkowitz and his wife, Susan Yager-Berkowitz, began an unprecedented survey of more than four thousand men and women in this situation, gathering data and following up with hundreds of interviews with selected respondents. Why Men Stop Having Sex provides a unique window into the sexless man's mind-so that men and women can understand this important issue and begin to address the problems that have inhibited intimacy, and ultimately solve them.
