SUMMARY:Andy Beta launches his debut Cosmic Music: The Life\, Art\, and Transcendence of Alice Coltrane
DESCRIPTION:Alice Coltrane (1937-2007) was one of the most misunderstood artists of the last sixty years. For most of her life—and even in the decades since her passing—she was primarily known as the widow of the late John Coltrane. John Coltrane is widely seen as being one of the greatest tenor saxophonists and composers of the 20th century\, with a fervor and devotion approaching sainthood. Yet ever so slowly\, that level of love and appreciation is also being bestowed upon pianist\, organist\, harpist\, and composer Alice Coltrane. \nCosmic Music: The Life\, Art and Transcendence of Alice Coltrane is the first full biography of this remarkable\, groundbreaking artist\, and is an elegant\, deeply researched corrective to the historical—and critical—record. It elevates Alice Coltrane to her proper place\, both alongside her husband as one of the greatest musical visionaries of the 20th century\, and also as a singular artist in Western music\, one who became a spiritual leader in her lifetime.

SUMMARY:Linda Stasi reads from her latest The Descendant
DESCRIPTION:This based-on-real-events novel tells the story of the family that possibly inspired The Godfather—except this story doesn’t begin with a small robbery in New York. Instead\, The Descendant begins with a big\, blooming love in the tiny town of Lucca Sicula\, Sicily. Told through the lives of the strong Italian women who fought against impossible odds\, this historically inspired narrative introduces a whole cast of fascinating characters. \nMariano Barbera was a strong\, powerfully built man who saw tiny fourteen-year-old Maria Ragusa at her family’s store and was struck dumb. He had to have her\, and she wanted him just as badly. Their life together leads the couple and their children from earthquake-ravaged Sicily to bondage in the mines of Colorado\, to cattle ranching in Pueblo\, to Mafia life on the mean streets of Red Hook\, Brooklyn. \nThis sweeping family saga centers around the Barberas’ ten children from their three cowboy gangster sons\, Peter\, Joe\, and Austin to their seven wildly different cowgirl daughters. First there’s little Flo—born on the night of the wolves and whose own alpha wolf never left her side—as she navigates life alongside her best pal and younger sister\, Clara. Then there’s Flo’s many older sisters: Callie\, who loved and lost; Angie\, who loved and left; gorgeous Laura\, who loved the wrong man; grouchy but brilliant Helen\, who loved many times; and tough-as-nails wrangler Michelina\, who loved a woman more than the husband she was forced to marry.

SUMMARY:Victoria Shorr reads from her latest Fatherland
DESCRIPTION:Martin and Lora Brier\, with three young children\, possess all the trappings of a perfect life . . . except Martin is having yet another affair. Without warning\, he abandons the family for his mistress and a new house on the other side of town. \nSet in a prosperous midwestern town in the 1950s\, Fatherland is a story about the effect of convenient lies and discovered truths. While Martin’s abandonment throws up new difficulties for bewildered Lora\, a housewife\, who must now find a way to nurture and provide for herself and children\, it unleashes a swirl of emotions in their daughter\, Josie\, who struggles to come to term with his absence. Fatherland follows Josie from this fateful event\, across many decades and milestones and through the phases of her tenuous\, emotionally fraught relationship with Martin—and the way she begins to move beyond their shared past.
