Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • Sam and Sadie—two college friends, often in love, but never lovers—become creative partners in a dazzling and intricately imagined world of video game design, where success brings them fame, joy, tragedy, duplicity, and, ultimately, a kind of immortality. It is a love story, but not one you have read before. "Delightful and absorbing." —The New York Times • "Utterly brilliant." —John Green One of the Best Books of the Year: The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, TIME, GoodReads, Oprah Daily From the best-selling author of The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry: On a bitter-cold day, in the December of his junior year at Harvard, Sam Masur exits a subway car and sees, amid the hordes of people waiting on the platform, Sadie Green. He calls her name. For a moment, she pretends she hasn’t heard him, but then, she turns, and a game begins: a legendary collaboration that will launch them to stardom. These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster, Ichigo. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won’t protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts. Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, Gabrielle Zevin’s Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love.

Do Not Think about Tomorrow
Author: Edward Schwartz
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595246001
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
Do Not Think About Tomorrow is a richly textured story with memorable characters. This fast-paced novel will move, excite and anger you. There is no main protagonist among personages of this story because the world of crime and drugs crosses all borders. All personages, dead or remained alive, are victims of their weakness, fatal situations, society. The author leads the reader into the thoughts and secret desires of a strangely assorted group: PAUL MARKER, who has never been forced to learn about himself and given up the battle for self-respect; HIS SON DONALD, a forlorn youngster, beating against the walls of his loneliness; SAM ROBSON, a Mafiosi, who pursues the illusion of happiness in his own way; TONY MORICHELLI, a businessman and a Mafia's boss, who inevitably drags to perdition everyone he touches; GENERAL CLARK PATTERSON, a dry pragmatist, whose blunt and irresistible vitality catapults him on the highest steps of the social staircase. These characters and many others are the skeins of the absorbing story, which rises a dramatic climax through the pressure of events and which formulates the author's indictment of the society, in which money prevails over other values and which corrodes lives casually drawn into its orbit.

Do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day may bring forth. (Proverbs 27: 1) Never had Rachel Newberry found that to be so true as when she woke up one Tuesday. Only hours later she finds herself struggling against an intruder, beaten unconscious and left to die. Her temptations begin as she debates life or death, forgiveness or punishment for the one who terrorized her family. Sometimes dying comes easier than loving an enemy.

Tomorrow’s History
Author: Simon Zadek
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351280821
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
The last ten years have seen an extraordinary transformation in how business has to account for itself. Today, the air is thick with the buzz of corporate responsibility (CR) leaders, innovators and practitioners. Conferences and publications on the topic are in abundance: the tip of an iceberg that has become a fast-growth industry. Many of those companies and service providers most vocal in distancing themselves from early experimentation have proved the strongest advocates of sustainability reporting, often winning applause and coveted awards in the process. Even companies from controversial sectors such as alcohol, cigarettes and gambling have joined the party – running up bills of tens of millions of dollars in demonstrating their new-found faith for CR. It has not always been like this. As one of the architects of the burgeoning CR movement, Simon Zadek has always been a prolific writer and contributor of ideas. The evolution of his thoughts on new economics, corporate accountability, stakeholder dialogue, social and ethical auditing and reporting have attracted consistent attention – never more than today. In this unique anthology, Zadek crystallises his key work from the last decade into a coherent and fascinating whole, which, read together, provide a context, lens and early history lesson on how CR has become one of the defining business issues of the 21st century. The writings reflect Zadek's involvement with organisations such as the New Economics Foundation, a pioneer in the development of social auditing, sustainability indicators, community finance and much more. They illustrate his contribution in setting up the Ethical Trading Initiative, and AccountAbility (where he is presently the CEO), in working with companies such as The Body Shop and Ben & Jerry's through to Nike, BT and many other civil-society organisations. The book contains 33 pieces, which are split into six sections: "The Economics of Utopia"; "Civil Society, Power and Accountability"; "Accounting for Change"; "The Civil Corporation"; "Partnership Alchemy"; and "Responsible Competitiveness". It will be an invaluable resource for anyone wishing develop an understanding of why corporate responsibility is where it is today and where it might end up tomorrow.
