SUMMARY:Eden Collinsworth presents her latest The Improbable Victoria Woodhull
DESCRIPTION:In 1894\, a remarkably self-possessed American woman\, with no formal education to speak of\, stood before a British court seeking damages for libel from the trustees of the British Museum. It was yet another stop along the unpredictable route that was Victoria Woodhull’s life. Born dirt-poor in an obscure Ohio settlement\, Woodhull was the daughter of an illiterate mother entranced by the fad of Mesmerism—a therapeutic pseudoscience—and a swindler father whose cons exploited his two daughters. It was through her mother\, though\, that Woodhull familiarized herself with the supernatural realm\, earning a degree of fame as a clairvoyant and her first taste of financial success. Woodhull’s life would continue to turn on its axis and then turn again. Vividly written and exhaustively researched\, Collinsworth tells the story of a woman truly ahead of her time—a radical visionary who made defying mores a habit and brought to the fore societal and political issues still being addressed today. Neither a saint nor a villain\, Woodhull emerges as an iconic\, complex woman: an entrepreneur; lover of freedom; and a fiercely loyal family member whose political activism and suffragist legacy will cement her in history.

SUMMARY:Leslie Cohen & Sean Avery launch Summer Skate
DESCRIPTION:Summer has begun on the East End of Long Island and bestselling author Jessica Riley finds herself unable to deliver on her highly anticipated second book. Her children are demanding. Her husband is preoccupied. With a deadline looming\, she fakes a mental breakdown to get away . . . only to find that the house next door is filled with rowdy hockey players. \nOne of those players is Carter Hughes\, a soon-to-be rookie on the New York Rangers\, and in Carter and his friends\, Jessica discovers a treasure trove of material for her next book. But she quickly finds herself in over her head\, as her connection with Carter spirals out of control and his behavior becomes more erratic. Meanwhile\, as Carter mixes with the power scene in the Hamptons\, one false move could turn what was supposed to be a summer of training and good times into a game he can’t afford to play. \nSexy and addictive\, Summer Skate is the sun on your skin in a string bikini. It’s the sound of skates cutting across the ice of a hockey rink\, chasing victory. It’s an answer to the question: How bad do you want it?

SUMMARY:Joan Baker in conversation about her new book In the Swampyland
DESCRIPTION:B’rer Rabbit\, trickster of the Uncle Remus tales. A chicken’s head bobbing in a bowl of soup\, its dead eyes accusing the diner. Cockroaches\, venomous snakes\, biting frogs. These are among the lively characters in Joan Brooks Baker’s second book\, a collection of stories called In the Swampyland\, which spans the author’s life from her childhood in New York City to her eye-opening\, sometimes-risky world travels. In the Swampyland examines the world in which Baker grew up and aims equally intense scrutiny at the exotic cultures her innate curiosity has motivated her to visit\, from the jungles of Colombia to the streets of India and the attractions of the American South\, in her search for belonging. \n  \nJoan Baker will be in conversation with Laura Yorke\, editor\, publisher\, literary agent and author.

SUMMARY:Rebecca Kelliher presents her debut Just Pills
DESCRIPTION:As women’s rights are increasingly depleted in the US\, journalist Rebecca Kelliher dives into the radical history of the abortion pills from invention to distribution to today \nSpanning decades and continents with a tenacious cast of doctors\, activists\, politicians\, drug suppliers\, and everyday women\, Just Pills tells the gripping\, little-known history of mifepristone and misoprostol\, better known as the abortion pills. \nThe abortion pills are a safe\, cheap\, clinic-less means of ending a pregnancy\, and these drugs have been quietly—yet steadily—spreading around the world. These pills are already changing the fight for abortion access as we understand it. Rebecca Kelliher dives into the history of the pills’ invention in the 1970s and 80s\, unpacks government battles around their approval in the 1990s\, and deftly weaves together several perspectives to move beyond the pills’ origin story. \nAs women’s rights are increasingly infringed upon in the US\, this history of radical invention and persistent distribution of a life-saving drug will remind us of the work we’ve already done and inspire us to continue to pursue a world where women are free.
