SUMMARY:Jan Eliasberg reads from her debut Hannah's War
DESCRIPTION:Berlin\, 1938. Groundbreaking physicist Dr. Hannah Weiss is on the verge of the greatest discovery of the 20th century: splitting the atom. She understands that the energy released by her discovery can power entire cities or destroy them. Hannah believes the weapon’s creation will secure an end to future wars\, but as a Jewish woman living under the harsh rule of the Third Reich\, her research is belittled\, overlooked\, and eventually stolen by her German colleagues. Faced with an impossible choice\, Hannah must decide what she is willing to sacrifice in pursuit of science’s greatest achievement.\n \nNew Mexico\, 1945. Returning wounded and battered from the liberation of Paris\, Major Jack Delaney arrives in the New Mexican desert with a mission: to catch a spy. Someone in the top-secret nuclear lab at Los Alamos has been leaking encoded equations to Hitler’s scientists. Chief among Jack’s suspects is the brilliant and mysterious Hannah Weiss\, an exiled physicist lending her talent to J. Robert Oppenheimer’s mission. All signs point to Hannah as the traitor\, but over three days of interrogation that separate her lies from the truth\, Jack will realize they have more in common than either one bargained for.

SUMMARY:Zack O'Malley Greenberg reads from his new book A-List Angels
DESCRIPTION:How much is celebrity really worth? In a growing trend\, Hollywood’s biggest stars from Ashton Kutcher to Beyoncé have set out to turn their fame into bankable capital by tossing out traditional endorsement deals in favor of strategic partnerships that grant them a stake in today’s top companies. Ushered in by 50 Cent’s deal with Vitamin Water — in which the rapper took equity instead of cash\, eventually walking away with a nine-figure haul — celebrities of all different colors\, genders\, and talents have learned to capitalize on the invaluable benefits of their platform and visibility.\n\nThe ever-evolving\, mutually beneficial relationship between Hollywood and Silicon Valley has led to everything from laughable flops and billion-dollar profits to rock star CEOs and paparazzi-worthy boards of directors. Through extensive reporting and exclusive interviews with stars like Shaq\, Nas\, Sophia Bush\, and Steve Aoki\, Forbes senior editor Zack O’Malley Greenburg takes an up-close-and-personal look at the rise of celebrity investors and their impact on companies including AirBnB\, Spotify\, and Uber.

SUMMARY:Honor Moore reads from her new book Our Revolution
DESCRIPTION:With the sweep of an epic novel\, Our Revolution follows Jenny Moore\, a charismatic and brilliant woman whose life changed as she became engaged in the great twentieth-century movements for peace and social justice. Born into Boston society in 1923 and the first woman in her family to go to college\, she set aside writing ambitions to marry Paul Moore\, a decorated war hero who became Bishop Paul Moore. Together they had nine children—”a baseball team\,” Jenny said\, “a small orchestra.” \nRejecting a conventional path\, the Moores moved to an inner-city parish in Jersey City and began their family while collaborating on a socially radical\, multiracial ministry. In 1968\, Jenny published her first book. “Everything was just starting\,” she protested—meaning an independent life inspired in part by the new feminist movement—when she was diagnosed with cancer at fifty. \nJenny bequeathed to her eldest daughter\, Honor\, then a twenty-seven-year-old poet\, her unfinished writing. As Honor pursued her own writing\, she was haunted by her mother’s bequest. Decades later\, she delves into Jenny’s pages and forges a new relationship with the passionate seeker and truth teller she finds there. Our Revolution is a vivid\, absorbing account of two women navigating the twentieth century and a daughter’s story of the mother who shaped her life as an artist and a woman.

SUMMARY:Katherine Swett reads from her new collection of poetry Voice Message
DESCRIPTION:In this beautiful book of poems\, which gives voice to unspeakable loss\, Katherine Barrett Swett enlivens and animates old forms and makes them sing anew.  Hers is a dazzling contemporary poetics\, in which\, in a wry\, adroit crown of sonnets\, based on paintings by Vermeer\, “a grace note struck…shimmers like a pearl.” These poems bring to mind Mona Van Duyn’s stately\, syncopated verses\, tempered with flashes of humor and verbal derring-do and delineate not only dark places but also the pleasures of a long marriage\, sitting out on a summer evening\, watching the firefly’s “disco frenzy…impossible to trace with just the eye.”  A marvelous collection. \n—Cynthia Zarin

SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** Julian Tepper in conversation with Hannah Assadi about his new book Between the Records
DESCRIPTION:Jules and Adam Newman’s complex\, often hostile\, relationship has long fueled their music careers as they followed in their father’s footsteps. After the release of their debut record\, and while struggling to write tracks for the followup\, the brothers begin to clash. Jules\, the younger brother\, feels cast aside and ignored by Adam\, who has long been accustomed to having things his own way. From the studio to the stage and across the countless miles in between\, Julian Tepper’s third novel is a moody and heady work of autofiction based on his days in the Natural History\, which he and his brother formed in 2001. Between the Records examines brothers\, fathers\, rock and roll\, and the personal demons therein—both musical and familial.\nJulian Tepper is the author of two novels\, Balls (Rare Bird) and Ark (Dzanc). As the member of the band The Natural History\, he recorded two albums and co-wrote the hit song\, “Don’t You Evah” for the legendary indie-group\, Spoon.

SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** Bill Keenan reads from his new book Discussion Materials
DESCRIPTION:Discussion Materials gives the reader an honest look at Wall Street from someone in the trenches. After graduating from Columbia Business School\, Bill Keenan joined Deutsche Bank’s investment banking division as an associate where despotic superiors (and the blinking red light of his BlackBerry) instilled low-level terror on an hourly basis. You’ll join him in his cubicle on the 44th floor of 60 Wall Street as he scrambles to ensure floating bar charts are the correct shade of orange and all numbers are left-aligned\, but whatever you do\, don’t ask him what any of it means. Leaning heavily on his fellow junior bankers and the countless outsourcing resources the bank employs\, he slowly develops proficiency at the job\, eventually gaining traction and respect\, one deal at a time\, over a two-year span\, ultimately cementing his legacy in the group by attaining the unattainable—placing a dinner order on Seamless one Sunday night at work from Hwa Yuan Szechuan amounting to $25.00 (tax and tip included)\, the bank’s maximum allowance for meals—the perfect order.
