SUMMARY:Lily Tuck and Molly Haskell in conversation about Lily's new book Heathcliff Redux
DESCRIPTION:In the title novella\, a married woman reads Wuthering Heights at the same time that she falls under the erotic and destructive spell of her own Heathcliff. In the stories that follow\, a single photograph illuminates the intricate web of connections between friends at an Italian café; a forgotten act of violence in New York’s Carl Schurz Park returns to haunt the present; and a woman is prompted by a flurry of mysterious emails to recall her time as a member of the infamous Rajneesh cult. \nSharp and unflinching\, the novella and stories together form an exquisitely crafted collection from one of our most treasured\, award-winning writers. \n  \nLily Tuck will be in conversation with author and critic\, Molly Haskell

SUMMARY:Joshua Hammer Reads from his new book The Falcon Thief
DESCRIPTION:On May 3\, 2010\, an Irish national named Jeffrey Lendrum was apprehended at Britain’s Birmingham International Airport with a suspicious parcel strapped to his stomach. Inside were fourteen rare peregrine falcon eggs snatched from a remote cliffside in Wales. So begins a tale almost too bizarre to believe\, following the parallel lives of a globetrotting smuggler who spent two decades capturing endangered raptors for royals in the United Arab Emirates—where falcon races have multimillion-dollar purses and a champion bird might just be worth risking prison for—and Detective Andy McWilliam of the United Kingdom’s National Wildlife Crime Unit\, who’s determined to protect the world’s birds of prey from one of the most irrepressible predators of our time. It’s a story that’s part true-crime narrative\, part epic adventure—and wholly unputdownable until the very last page.

SUMMARY:Adrienne Miller in conversation with Jenny Mollen about her new book In the Land of Men
DESCRIPTION:A naive and idealistic twenty-two-year-old from the Midwest\, Adrienne Miller got her lucky break when she was hired as an editorial assistant at GQ magazine in the mid-nineties. Even if its sensibilities were manifestly mid-century—the martinis\, powerful male egos\, and unquestioned authority of kings—GQ still seemed the red-hot center of the literary world. It was there that Miller began learning how to survive in a man’s world. Three years later\, she forged her own path\, becoming the first woman to take on the role of literary editor of Esquire\, home to the male writers who had defined manhood itself— Hemingway\, Mailer\, and Carver. Up against this old world\, she would soon discover that it wanted nothing to do with a “mere girl.” \nBut this was also a unique moment in history that saw the rise of a new literary movement\, as exemplified by McSweeney’s and the work of David Foster Wallace. A decade older than Miller\, the mercurial Wallace would become the defining voice of a generation and the fiction writer she would work with most. He was her closest friend\, confidant—and antagonist. Their intellectual and artistic exchange grew into a highly charged professional and personal relationship between the most prominent male writer of the era and a young woman still finding her voice. \nThis memoir—a rich\, dazzling story of power\, ambition\, and identity—ultimately asks the question “How does a young woman fit into this male culture and at what cost?” With great wit and deep intelligence\, Miller presents an inspiring and moving portrayal of a young woman’s education in a land of men.

SUMMARY:Gigi Levangie in conversation with Molly Jong-Fast about Been There\, Married That
DESCRIPTION:Agnes Murphy Nash is the perfect Hollywood wife – she has the right friends\, the right clothes\, and even a side career of her own as a writer. Her husband Trevor is a bigshot producer\, and from the outside it looks like they’re living a picture-perfect celebrity life\, complete with tennis tournaments and lavish parties. \nBut the job description of a Hollywood wife doesn’t cover divorce\, which is the way Agnes’ life is headed after she comes home one day to find her credit cards cancelled and the security passwords to get into her enormous LA home changed. Oh\, and there’s a guy there whose job it is to tase her if she tries to enter…which she does. \nNeedless to say\, Agnes’ husband is dead set on making sure she loses big time\, but Agnes isn’t the type to just lie down and take it. In a world of fremenies and hot nannies\, personal psychics and “skinny” jello shots\, Agnes may be losing her husband\, but could that mean getting her own life back? \nBeen There\, Married That is a drop-dead hilarious battle of wills that will make you laugh out loud\, cringe\, and keep turning the pages to see what crazy disaster will happen to Agnes next…and how she’ll rise from the ashes.

SUMMARY:Alan A. Winter reads from his debut novel Wolf
DESCRIPTION:Perhaps no man on Earth is more controversial\, more hated\, or more studied than Adolf Hitler. His exploits and every move are well-documented\, from the time he first became chancellor and then dictator of Germany to starting World War II to the systematic killing of millions of Jews. But how did he achieve power\, and what was the makeup of the mind of a man who would deliberately inflict unimaginable horrors on millions of people? \nMeet Friedrich Richard\, an amnesiac soldier who\, in 1918\, encounters Hitler in the mental ward at Pasewalk Hospital. Hitler\, then a corporal\, diagnosed as a psychopath and helpless\, suffering from hysterical blindness\, introduces himself as Wolf to Friedrich and becomes dependent upon Friedrich for assistance\, forming an unbreakable bond between the two men. \nFollow Friedich—our protagonist—who interacts with real people\, places\, and events\, through the fifteen-year friendship that witnesses Hitler turn from a quiet painter into a megalomaniacal dictator. Using brand-new historical research to construct a realistic portrait of the evolving Hitler\, Wolf will satisfy\, by turns\, history buffs and fiction fans alike. And as this complex story is masterfully presented\, it answers the question of how a nondescript man became the world’s greatest monster.
