SUMMARY:Carol LaHines in conversation about her new book Miracle Grow of the Mind
DESCRIPTION:Miracle Grow of the Mind is a funny\, heartbreaking exploration of parenthood\, disability\, medical bureaucracy\, Big Agro\, food allergies\, and environmental pathogens. When Amy and Michael’ s son is born prematurely\, they are thrust into a world of pediatric neurologists\, sensory reintegration therapy\, and endless evaluations. \n  \nMichael also struggles with a mother suffering from dementia\, who insists he is the grown-up version of a brother who died in infancy. When the Kafkaesque Bureau of Preschool Special Education threatens to make their son repeat kindergarten\, the family must confront how they are living and decide which therapies— everything from Mel Finkelstein’ s sensory reintegration sessions to pediatric neurologist visits— are worth the emotional toll. \n  \nWith the help of Griffin’ s babysitter Estella— caught in a secret affair with Josef\, a Hungarian psychiatris navigating his own child’ s special needs— they arrive at an unexpected\, poignant resolution. Smart\, wry\, and deeply human\, this novel examines the ways love\, absurdity\, and hope intersect in the messy work of raising a child. \n  \nCarol will be in conversation with Sheila Kohler\, author  of twelve novels\, three collections of short stories\, and a memoir\,  Once We Were Sisters.

SUMMARY:Julian Tepper launches his new novel Getting Even / Letting Go
DESCRIPTION:On a single spring afternoon in New York City\, Gene Mills—a once-successful writer now living on fumes—hosts friends in his apartment while waiting for an art auction that could change everything. The paintings on the block were made by his ex-wife\, now a global art star. They depict her affair\, her ambition\, and the life she detonated when she left him. Gene believes selling them is justice. Or survival. Or both. \nAs the clock ticks toward the auction lots\, Gene spirals through old resentments\, legal threats\, parental guilt\, financial desperation\, and the corrosive pleasure of retaliation. What unfolds is an intimate portrait of a man trying to convert emotional injury into cash\, to reclaim dignity through ownership\, and to convince himself that getting even might finally allow him to let go. \nWith biting wit and relentless psychological precision\, Julian Tepper explores the moral gray zones of divorce\, custody\, authorship\, and art-world power—where love becomes leverage\, memory becomes inventory\, and victory may cost more than defeat. Getting Even/Letting Go is a novel about what remains when intimacy turns transactional\, and whether freedom can ever be purchased without exacting a final\, private price.
