Book Description
Αυτή εδώ είναι η ιστορία της Μάργκο Κρουπ, μιας έφηβης απ' τα μεσοδυτικά που αφήνει την πατρίδα της, το Μάουντ Πλέζαντ του Μίσιγκαν, για να πάει στο Χόλλυγουντ. Στο τέλος του δρόμου βρίσκονται ο Σήζαρ, ο νεαρός Μεξικανός που ερωτεύεται τρελά, κι ο Μαξ, ένας φανατικός κινηματογραφόφιλος που μανατζάρει ένα ροκ συγκρότημα, τους Gringos, καθώς κι ο Γκρεγκ Τζόουνς, ένας πρώην ρόουντι των Grand Funk που γράφει τ' απομνημονεύματά του· και κάμποσοι άλλοι παράξενοι κι ευάλωτοι άνθρωποι που γεμίζουν, άθελά τους, τη ζωή της Μάργκο με τρυφερότητα, αναστάτωση και απόγνωση. Και παρ' όλο που η Φτωχή Μάργκο μιλάει για το πώς είναι να είσαι νέος, κι ανήσυχος και έκπληκτος μέσα στη μεγαλούπολη, δεν πρόκειται για ένα μυθιστόρημα πάνω στο σεξ, τα ναρκωτικά και το ροκ εν ρολ, αλλά μάλλον για το χρονικό μιας ενηλικίωσης, μιας ελεύθερης πτώσης κι ενός ανεκπλήρωτου έρω

Book Description
The “spellbinding tale” of an Alabama family and a troubled teenage orphan: “eloquent evidence that Southern storytelling is indeed a very special art form” (The New York Times Book Review). In the 1940s, Coden, Alabama was a hideaway for movie stars—an isolated playground tucked among live oaks and placid bay waters where pleasure and vice could be indulged. By the summer of 1974 Coden's glamour has faded, but it doesn't bother Mimi Bosarge, who is just happy to have a job as a live-in tutor with the wealthiest family in town, the Hendersons. When the Hendersons generously open their arms to Annie, a troubled teenager with no recollection of her past, Mimi's greatest concern is creating a curriculum for the family's new ward. But it soon becomes obvious that something is wrong. Annie seems suspiciously savvy for her young age, and Mimi can't quell the unnerving sense that there is something malicious about the waiflike beauty.

Book Description
A collection of short stories from celebrated author William Trevor in which he shines a light on the day-to-day life of Ireland and its citizens. From his debut collection, “The Day We Got Drunk on Cake,” published in 1968, to “Family Sins” (1990), William Trevor has crafted the short story to perfection, giving us brilliant and subtle stories full of the reversals, surprises, and shadowy truths we discover in life itself. To read this volume is not just to encounter an extraordinary literary stylist, but to understand life as surely as though we were looking through the eyes of his protagonists and—deeper still—into their hearts. William Trevor: The Collected Stories includes the tales from his seven previous books, as well as four stories that have never appeared in book form in America. They depict the comforts and frustrations of life in rural Ireland, the complexities of family relationships, and the elusive grace of love. They portray the almost invisible strands that bind people to each other as well as the chains that imprison them in solitary yearning.

Book Description
In the United States today, more than three hundred resident nonprofit professional theatres bring both classics of world drama and daring new plays to life for audiences across the country. In a recent year, American resident theatres produced over three thousand plays for an audience of fifteen million. During that same period, the commerical theatre on Broadway mounted just thirty-two productions. Now New York looks to regional theatre for new plays: in the past decade every Pulitzer Prize-winning play has originated not on Broadway but in nonprofit regional houses.

A true delight.” —Nicola Harrison, author of Hotel Laguna Washington Post Best Book of April * PureWow Best Book of Summer It’s 1961, and for Margo Hightower, everything is about to change.

Until she finds herself entangled in a complicated web of loyalties and secrets that could bring it all crashing down…
