SUMMARY:Celebration the launch of City People with author Elizabeth Topp
DESCRIPTION:When beautiful and successful Susan Harris jumps from the roof of her apartment building\, she sets a tremor through her New York City mothers’ group that forces them all to look at one another with new cynicism: How could this have happened right under their noses? To one of them? Between her death and the harrowing private school admission season on the horizon\, these women are forced to explore the hard truths about themselves. \nVic\, a single mom with literary aspirations\, is shocked and confused by the unexpected death of her best friend. \nBhavna\, a makeup executive\, tries to process Susan’s death while sacrificing everything to get her son into the school of his dreams. \nKara’s sister died by suicide years earlier\, so she’s been down this road before―or so it seems. \nPenelope and Amy are navigating a business deal when Susan dies\, but is it worth the toll on their families? \nAnd how will Chandice\, battling cancer\, come to terms with Susan’s death? \nFor these women\, the loss of a fellow mother forces them to reexamine who they really are while the futures of their children hang in the balance

SUMMARY:Maggie Jackson reads from her new book Uncertain: The Wisdom and Wonder of Being Unsure
DESCRIPTION:In an era of terrifying unpredictability\, we race to address complex crises with neat algorithms\, bullet points\, or hurried tweets. How could we find the clarity and vision so urgently needed today by being unsure? Uncertain is about the unsung triumph of doing just that. A scientific adventure tale set on the front lines of a volatile era\, this paradigm-shifting book by award-winning author Maggie Jackson shows us how to skillfully confront the unexpected and the unknown\, and how to harness not-knowing in the service of wisdom\, invention\, mutual understanding\, and even resilience. Long neglected as a topic of study\, the newly discovered gifts of uncertainty now fascinate the greatest cognitive scientists – and offer a remarkable antidote to the narrow-mindedness of our day. In laboratories\, operating rooms\, boardrooms\, and on the frontiers of Artificial Intelligence\, Uncertain unlocks the secrets to a state of mind that is critical to human achievement yet treated as a shameful flaw.

SUMMARY:Jody Gelb reads from her debut Micro-Memoir She May Be Lying Down but She May Be Very Happy
DESCRIPTION:Everything was going right in the delivery room until\, suddenly\, it wasn’t. The baby’s brain was damaged; the new mother\, unprepared for the life she and her family would now be living. \nIn dense\, lyrical prose\, Jody Gelb pays tribute to her daughter’s short life. She May Be lying Down but She May Be Very Happy is a marvel of compression and potency. Gelb lays her experience bare in the full range of its emotional complexity\, from profound suffering to ecstatic joy. It is a mother-daughter memoir scrubbed of sentiment. She May Be lying Down but She May Be Very Happy isn’t so much a book as the naked truth of being human in this imperfect world.
