The grandmother is Swedish, a retired domestic. The boy is Ethiopian and adopted, and he will grow up to become the world-renowned chef Marcus Samuelsson. This book is his love letter to food and family in all its manifestations. Marcus Samuelsson was only three years old when he, his mother, and his sister--all battling tuberculosis--walked seventy-five miles to a hospital in the Ethiopian capital city of Addis Adaba. Tragically, his mother succumbed to the disease shortly after she arrived, but Marcus and his sister recovered, and one year later, they were welcomed into a loving middle-class white family in Gothenburg, Sweden. It was there that Marcus's new grandmother, Helga, sparked in him a lifelong passion for food and cooking with her pan-fried herring, her freshly baked bread, and her signature roast chicken. From a very early age, there was little question what Marcus was going to be when he grew up. Yes, Chef chronicles Marcus Samuelsson's remarkable journey from Helga's humble kitchen to some of the most demanding and cutthroat restaurants in Switzerland and France, from his grueling stints on cruise ships to his arrival in New York City, where his outsize talent and ambition finally come together at Aquavit, earning him a coveted New York Times three-star rating at the age of twenty-four. But Samuelsson's career of \"chasing flavors,\" as he calls it, had only just begun--in the intervening years, there have been White House State dinners, career crises, reality show triumphs and, most important, the opening of the beloved Red Rooster in Harlem. At Red Rooster, Samuelsson has fufilled his dream of creating a truly diverse, multiracial dining room--a place where presidents and prime ministers rub elbows with jazz musicians, aspiring artists, bus drivers, and nurses. It is a place where an orphan from Ethiopia, raised in Sweden, living in America, can feel at home. With disarming honesty and intimacy, Samuelsson also opens up about his failures as a man--the price of ambition, in human terms--and recounts his emotional journey, as a grown man, to meet the father he never knew. Yes, Chef is a tale of personal discovery, unshakable determination, and the passionate, playful pursuit of flavors--one man's struggle to find a place for himself in the kitchen, and in the world\"--","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2e8p85754qs5kcr5y9h1er.jpg?v=1e29942bcb","LDFMzd$f0jI=}n$$I=NI1Js.}DR,",2012,319,[122],{"id":123,"slug":124,"name":125},"01kx2e8p7gpq0q6j29w5f8a61g","marcus-samuelsson-vhwh","Marcus Samuelsson",[127,128,129],{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":130,"name":131,"slug":132,"is_fiction":19},112,"Cooking","cooking",[],{"pace":48,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":135,"themes":137,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[53,136],"heartwarming",[],{"id":139,"slug":140,"title":141,"description":142,"primary_cover_url":143,"cover_blurhash":144,"first_publish_year":145,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":146,"authors":147,"genres":152,"series":156,"enrichment":157},"01kx2n7s8zkfaswsya209p28b1","this-star-wont-go-out-ohgr","This star won't go out","\"A memoir told through the journals, letters, and stories of young cancer patient Esther Earl\"--Provided by the publisher.

How does a girl—abandoned by her mother at age two and orphaned at thirteen when her beloved father dies—find her place in the world? This memoir is the story of Nadia creating her own solid ground across countries and continents. I know the struggle of rebuilding your life in an unfamiliar place. While some of you might be familiar with that and some might not, I hope you’ll take as much inspiration and hope from her story as I did.” —MALALA YOUSAFZAI ​ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2021 SELECTED BY VULTURE, TIME, ESQUIRE, NPR, AND VOGUE! Young Nadia Owusu followed her father, a United Nations official, from Europe to Africa and back again. Just as she and her family settled into a new home, her father would tell them it was time to say their goodbyes. The instability wrought by Nadia’s nomadic childhood was deepened by family secrets and fractures, both lived and inherited. Her Armenian American mother, who abandoned Nadia when she was two, would periodically reappear, only to vanish again. Her father, a Ghanaian, the great hero of her life, died when she was thirteen. After his passing, Nadia’s stepmother weighed her down with a revelation that was either a bombshell secret or a lie, rife with shaming innuendo. With these and other ruptures, Nadia arrived in New York as a young woman feeling stateless, motherless, and uncertain about her future, yet eager to find her own identity. What followed, however, were periods of depression in which she struggled to hold herself and her siblings together. “A magnificent, complex assessment of selfhood and why it matters” (Elle), Aftershocks depicts the way she hauled herself from the wreckage of her life’s perpetual quaking, the means by which she has finally come to understand that the only ground firm enough to count on is the one written into existence by her own hand. “Full of narrative risk and untrammeled lyricism” (The Washington Post), Aftershocks joins the likes of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight and William Styron’s Darkness Visible, and does for race identity what Maggie Nelson does for gender identity in The Argonauts.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ezfaspm4khb55e9hdag3g.jpg?v=abd45b6424","LZM3Tb=Y}qW,:+O=,pt7BoIpwgV[",2021,[172],{"id":173,"slug":174,"name":175},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[177,178,179],{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":48,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":182,"themes":183,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[161,110,53],[],{"id":185,"slug":186,"title":187,"description":188,"primary_cover_url":189,"cover_blurhash":190,"first_publish_year":191,"community_rating_avg":192,"community_rating_count":70,"page_count":193,"authors":194,"genres":199,"series":207,"enrichment":208},"01kx27x0zfy7717e25mtdap2qb","notes-on-a-silencing-su72","Notes on a Silencing","\"When the elite St. Paul's School came under state investigation after extensive reports of sexual abuse on campus, Lacy Crawford thought she'd put behind her the assault she'd suffered decades before, when she was fifteen. Still, when detectives asked for victims to come forward, she sent a note. With her criminal case file reopened, she saw for the first time evidence that corroborated her memories. Here were depictions of the naïve, hardworking girl she'd been, a chorister and debater, the daughter of a priest; of the two senior athletes who assaulted her and were allowed to graduate with awards; and of the faculty, doctors, and priests who had known about Crawford's assault and gone to great lengths to bury it. Now a wife, mother, and writer living on the other side of the country, Crawford learned that police had uncovered astonishing proof of an institutional silencing years before, and that unnamed powers were still trying to block her case. The slander, innuendo, and lack of adult concern that Crawford had experienced as a student hadn't been the imagined effects of trauma, after all: these were the actions of a school that prized its reputation above anything, even a child. This revelation launched Crawford on an extraordinary inquiry into the ways gender, privilege, and power shaped her experience as a girl at the gates of America's elite. Her investigation looks beyond the sprawling playing fields and soaring chapel towers of crucibles of power like St. Paul's, whose reckoning is still to come. And it runs deep into the channels of shame and guilt, witness and silencing, that dictate who can speak and who is heard in American society. An insightful, mature, beautifully written memoir, Notes on a Silencing is an arresting coming-of-age story that wrestles with an essential question for our time: what telling of a survivor's story will finally force a remedy?\" --","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx27x101a6ywejp2trpeyt23.jpg?v=195a73f9bc","LEBp5w_0Ipt6~n?FxDs.^%t7D+Rk",2020,"3.00",400,[195],{"id":196,"slug":197,"name":198},"01kx27x0zrw9wv52302kf5f000","lacy-crawford-9d4g","Lacy Crawford",[200,201,205,206],{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":19},{"id":202,"name":203,"slug":204,"is_fiction":19},104,"True Crime","true-crime",{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":158,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":209,"themes":212,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[210,110,211],"dark","tense",[],{"id":214,"slug":215,"title":216,"description":217,"primary_cover_url":218,"cover_blurhash":219,"first_publish_year":220,"community_rating_avg":192,"community_rating_count":70,"page_count":221,"authors":222,"genres":227,"series":234,"enrichment":235},"01kx2fecqv54fw63y1t49qh2yw","black-ice-pgog","Black Ice","Lorene Cary's debut memoir recounts her years as the only Black student at St. Paul's School, a prestigious New England boarding school, and the racial isolation that drove her toward marijuana use in an attempt to cope with loneliness and prejudice.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2fecrdh19ct42x0npmp5rb.jpg?v=c8d8160980","LMCHNcyZERnNPEaIr;jskEMwn$S%",1991,262,[223],{"id":224,"slug":225,"name":226},"01kx2fecr8zc0r43ctby3zd68f","lorene-cary-3dmq","Lorene Cary",[228,229,233],{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":19},{"id":230,"name":231,"slug":232,"is_fiction":18},59,"Contemporary Literature","contemporary-literature",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":158,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":236,"themes":238,"setting_period":7,"summary":217,"content_warnings":7},[110,237],"melancholic",[],{"id":240,"slug":241,"title":242,"description":243,"primary_cover_url":244,"cover_blurhash":245,"first_publish_year":246,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":247,"authors":248,"genres":253,"series":260,"enrichment":261},"01kx2bfzn6r2wvvwk7fhvqem1g","look-alive-out-there-hvfo","Look Alive Out There","Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2018 by Entertainment Weekly, Glamour, Buzzfeed, Elle, Cosmopolitan, The Millions, InStyle, Bustle, BookRiot, and Southern Living Sloane Crosley returns to the form that made her a household name in really quite a lot of households: Essays! From the New York Times–bestselling author Sloane Crosley comes Look Alive Out There—a brand-new collection of essays filled with her trademark hilarity, wit, and charm. The characteristic heart and punch-packing observations are back, but with a newfound coat of maturity. A thin coat. More of a blazer, really. Fans of I Was Told There’d Be Cake and How Did You Get This Number know Sloane Crosley’s life as a series of relatable but madcap misadventures. In Look Alive Out There, whether it’s scaling active volcanoes, crashing shivas, playing herself on Gossip Girl, befriending swingers, or staring down the barrel of the fertility gun, Crosley continues to rise to the occasion with unmatchable nerve and electric one-liners. And as her subjects become more serious, her essays deliver not just laughs but lasting emotional heft and insight. Crosley has taken up the gauntlets thrown by her predecessors—Dorothy Parker, Nora Ephron, David Sedaris—and crafted something rare, affecting, and true. Look Alive Out There arrives on the tenth anniversary of I Was Told There’d be Cake, and Crosley’s essays have managed to grow simultaneously more sophisticated and even funnier. And yet she’s still very much herself, and it’s great to have her back—and not a moment too soon (or late, for that matter).","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2bfznk43ek21ynnnnw9my9.jpg?v=44a8ee593e","LJLE._xX%%tS%$krMxi]xpV=R4o~",2018,257,[249],{"id":250,"slug":251,"name":252},"01kp6bp47w9safdqgdwwkjyevb","sloane-crosley-poem","Sloane Crosley",[254,255,259],{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":19},{"id":256,"name":257,"slug":258,"is_fiction":18},119,"Humor","humor",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":262,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":263,"themes":265,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"fast",[264,110],"funny",[],{"id":267,"slug":268,"title":269,"description":270,"primary_cover_url":271,"cover_blurhash":272,"first_publish_year":119,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":273,"authors":274,"genres":283,"series":290,"enrichment":291},"01kx25mnaazkr02xneaeb0f6mn","all-roads-lead-to-austen-a-year-long-journey-with-jane-monc","All Roads Lead to Austen A Year-long Journey with Jane","\"An illuminating insight...fascinating.\"--Amanda Grange, bestselling author of Mr. Darcy's Diary \"A journey through both a physical landscape and the geography of the human heart and mind...delightfully entertaining and often deeply moving, this book reminds us that Austen's world--and her characters--are very much alive.\"--Michael Thomas Ford, author of Jane Bites Back WHERE DO BOOKS TAKE YOU? With a suitcase full of Jane Austen novels en espanol, Amy Elizabeth Smith set off on a yearlong Latin American adventure: a traveling book club with Jane. In six unique, unforgettable countries, she gathered book-loving new friends-- taxi drivers and teachers, poets and politicians-- to read Emma, Sense and Sensibility, and Pride and Prejudice. Whether sharing rooster beer with Guatemalans, joining the crowd at a Mexican boxing match, feeding a horde of tame iguanas with Ecuadorean children, or tangling with argumentative booksellers in Argentina, Amy came to learn what Austen knew all along: that we're not always speaking the same language-- even when we're speaking the same language. But with true Austen instinct, she could recognize when, unexpectedly, she'd found her own Senor Darcy. All Roads Lead to Austen celebrates the best of what we love about books and revels in the pleasure of sharing a good book-- with good friends.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx25mnasv62zcfa6rek3nqvv.jpg?v=0fcae0c87c","LNQ9TLjDx]sA~njYado}8wtSf+V?",334,[275,279],{"id":276,"slug":277,"name":278},"01kx25mnakeeqssnhtd8yby27w","amy-elizabeth-smith-lh2y","Amy Elizabeth Smith",{"id":280,"slug":281,"name":282},"01kx25mnanxxqynegpvvj3arns","smith-amy-azx3","Smith, Amy",[284,285,289],{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":286,"name":287,"slug":288,"is_fiction":19},85,"Travel","travel",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":48,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":292,"themes":294,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[293,110],"adventurous",[295],"fish-out-of-water",{"id":297,"slug":298,"title":299,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":300,"cover_blurhash":301,"first_publish_year":302,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":303,"authors":304,"genres":309,"series":312,"enrichment":313},"01kx26g0kk0bvddzwc9k764yd5","old-friend-from-far-away-the-practice-of-writing-memoir-o24h","Old Friend from Far Away The Practice of Writing Memoir","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26g0kyc4rbph216hcfcxc5.jpg?v=59f77d2a00","LLO4MAt7_NtRx]ayRjj[_3a|D$of",2008,336,[305],{"id":306,"slug":307,"name":308},"01ks60p7tg0eepscye5qe44qbg","natalie-goldberg-0t56","Natalie Goldberg",[310,311],{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":158,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":314,"themes":315,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[110,53],[],{"id":317,"slug":318,"title":319,"description":320,"primary_cover_url":321,"cover_blurhash":322,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":323,"community_rating_count":70,"page_count":324,"authors":325,"genres":330,"series":334,"enrichment":335},"01kx2bk08tj3mt47crfa5kcsk4","long-live-the-tribe-of-fatherless-girls-ucyq","Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls","\"The book I wish I'd had growing up.\" —Chanel Miller, author of Know My Name Best Books of 2019: Esquire O, The Oprah Magazine Variety Lit Hub Book Riot Electric Literature Autostraddle Finalist: NBCC John Leonard First Book Prize Lambda Literary Award New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Selection Paste Best Memoirs of the Decade Elle Best Books of the Season Washington Post Best Books of the Month Indie Next Pick Indies Introduce Pick \"A fearless debut.\" — New York Times \"[A] gorgeous reckoning.\" — Washington Post \"Flat out breathtaking.\" — Lit Hub \"Gripping and gloriously written.\" — Elle \"Utterly unforgettable.\" — NYLON \"Unnervingly satisfying.\" — Oprah Magazine \"Deeply compassionate.\" —NPR.org \"Truly stunning.\" — Cosmopolitan Acclaimed literary essayist T Kira Madden's raw and redemptive debut memoir is about coming of age and reckoning with desire as a queer, biracial teenager amidst the fierce contradictions of Boca Raton, Florida, a place where she found cult-like privilege, shocking racial disparities, rampant white-collar crime, and powerfully destructive standards of beauty hiding in plain sight. As a child, Madden lived a life of extravagance, from her exclusive private school to her equestrian trophies and designer shoe-brand name. But under the surface was a wild instability. The only child of parents continually battling drug and alcohol addictions, Madden confronted her environment alone. Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.

In this riveting and timely memoir, the groundbreaking journalist unpacks lessons on race, identity, and success through her own journey, from navigating her way as the unstoppable child of an unlikely interracial marriage in small-town California to finding herself on the frontlines of a modern movement for the next generation of change makers. Welteroth moves beyond the headlines and highlight reels to share the profound lessons and struggles of being a barrier-breaker across so many intersections. As a young boss and often the only Black woman in the room, she’s had enough of the world telling her—and all women—they’re not enough.

For centuries, women who emerge as mystic leaders have played vital roles in American culture. For just as long, they've been subjugated and ridiculed. Today, women and others across the nation are once again turning to their mystic powers to #HexThePatriarchy and help fight the forces that seem bent on relegating them to second-class citizenry. Amid this tumult, Lucile Scott looks to the past and the stories of five women over three centuries to form an ancestral spiritual coven: Marie Laveau, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans; Cora L. V. Scott, nineteenth-century Spiritualist superstar; Helena Blavatsky, mother of Theosophy; Zsuzsanna Budapest, feminist witch and founder of Dianic Wicca; and Marianne Williamson, presidential candidate and preacher of the New Age Gospel of Love. Each, in their own ways, defied masculine preconceptions about power. A scathing queer feminist history and a personal quest for transcendence, An American COVENant opens our eyes to the paths forged by women who inspired the nation in their own times--and who will no longer be forgotten or silenced in ours.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx27hpfjg4edweyjbd1w7fxe.jpg?v=f43e6e9d75","L89G1}oe0iWV-jj[NKf60jWW}pn%",300,[407],{"id":408,"slug":409,"name":410},"01kx27hpfek6kjasyt1ymca1vk","lucile-scott-ldub","Lucile Scott",[412,413],{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":48,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":416,"themes":418,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[53,417],"thought-provoking",[],{"id":420,"slug":421,"title":422,"description":423,"primary_cover_url":424,"cover_blurhash":425,"first_publish_year":191,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":426,"authors":427,"genres":432,"series":440,"enrichment":441},"01kx24zszjne5nre9v4px87r6p","welcome-to-the-united-states-of-anxiety-observations-from-a-reforming-neurotic-icn7","Welcome to the United States of Anxiety Observations from a Reforming Neurotic","A Wall Street Journal bestseller.

From the moment Americans wake up, we're bombarded with all-new terrifying news about crime, the environment, politics, and stroke-inducing foods we've been enjoying for years. We're judged by social media's faceless masses, pressured into maintaining a Pinterest-perfect home, and expected to base our self-worth on retweets, faves, likes, and followers. Our collective FOMO, and the disparity between the ideal and reality, is leading us to spend more and feel worse. No wonder we're getting twitchy. Save for an Independence Day-style alien invasion, how do we begin to escape from the stressors that make up our days? Jen Lancaster is here to take a hard look at our elevating anxieties, and with self-deprecating wit and levelheaded wisdom, she charts a path out of the quagmire that keeps us frightened of the future and ashamed of our imperfectly perfect human lives.

Shortly after 9:00 p.m. on April 19, 1989, a young woman jogs alone near 102nd Street in New York City's Central Park. She is attacked, raped, savagely beaten, and left for dead. Hours later she arrives at the emergency room—comatose—she has lost so much blood that her doctors believe it’s a miracle she's still alive. Meet Trisha Meili, the Central Park Jogger. I Am the Central Park Jogger recounts the mesmerizing, inspiring, often wrenching story of human strength and transcendent recovery. Called “Hero of the Month” by Glamour magazine, Meili tells us who she was before the attack—a young Wall Street professional with a promising future—and who she has become: a woman who learned how to read, write, walk, talk, and love again...and turn horrifying violence and certain death into extraordinary healing and victorious life.

On a fateful day in February 2002, campaign manager Clara Rojas accompanied longtime friend and presidential hopeful Ingrid Betancourt into an area controlled by the powerful leftist guerrilla group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). Armed with machine guns and grenades, the FARC took them hostage and kept them in the jungle for the next six years. After more than two years of captivity deep in the Colombian jungle, surrounded by jaguars, snakes, and tarantulas, miles from any town or hospital, Clara Rojas prepared to give birth in a muddy tent surrounded by heavily armed guerrillas. Her captors promised that a doctor would be brought to the camp to help her. But when Rojas went into labor and began to suffer complications, the only person on hand was a guerrilla wielding a kitchen knife. The guerrillas drugged Rojas with anesthetic while one of them slit open her abdomen. Her son, Emmanuel, was born by amateur cesarean section in April 2004. His survival was miraculous, but her joy was soon cut short when the FARC took him from her when he was only eight months old. For the next three years, Clara was given no information about him, but her desire to one day see him again kept her alive. In early 2008, Clara was finally liberated and reunited with her son—to whom this book is dedicated.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx261n3qvk971kpa1ts0fx2t.jpg?v=673ddaa912","LIFhg:baE3XO-ixYnRoe|@NIIsjI",2010,256,[483],{"id":484,"slug":485,"name":486},"01kx261n3k5t80xy0mzb61mdmq","clara-rojas-3jsp","Clara Rojas",[488,489,490],{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":202,"name":203,"slug":204,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":262,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":493,"themes":495,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[211,210,494],"hopeful",[],{"id":317,"slug":318,"title":319,"description":320,"primary_cover_url":321,"cover_blurhash":322,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":323,"community_rating_count":70,"page_count":324,"authors":497,"genres":499,"series":503,"enrichment":504},[498],{"id":327,"slug":328,"name":329},[500,501,502],{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":19},{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":48,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":505,"themes":506,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[161,110],[],{"id":508,"slug":509,"title":510,"description":511,"primary_cover_url":512,"cover_blurhash":513,"first_publish_year":514,"community_rating_avg":457,"community_rating_count":70,"page_count":515,"authors":516,"genres":521,"series":529,"enrichment":530},"01kx23z03dzj3e7ja6t8fa2b9v","not-my-type-one-woman-vs-a-president-6q6d","Not My Type One Woman Vs. a President","AN INSTANT INDIE, USA TODAY, AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! \"Delightful . . .

She has been back to London countless times since, through the pages of books and in person, and now, in Imagined London, she takes her own readers on a tour of this greatest of literary cities.While New York, Paris, and Dublin are also vividly portrayed in fiction, it is London, Quindlen argues, that has always been the star, both because of the primacy of English literature and the specificity of city descriptions. She bases her view of the city on her own detailed literary map, tracking the footsteps of her favorite characters: the places where Evelyn Waugh's bright young things danced until dawn, or where Lydia Bennett eloped with the dastardly Wickham.In Imagined London, Quindlen walks through the city, moving within blocks from the great books of the 19th century to the detective novels of the 20th to the new modernist tradition of the 21st. With wit and charm, Imagined London gives this splendid city its full due in the landscape of the literary imagination.Praise for Imagined London:\"Shows just how much a reading experience can enrich a physical journey.\" —New York Times Book Review\"An elegant new work of nonfiction... People will be inspired by this book.\" —Ann Curry, Today\"An affectionate, richly allusive tribute to the city.\" —Kirkus Reviews","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx266qjvstwvxs8rfjd2xmnd.jpg?v=c112f88cf9","LrIF0UWZ~poz-:j[%MfkE2axM{ay",2006,169,[554],{"id":555,"slug":556,"name":557},"01kjqz7rh0fdqmz4w4nydwxcfw","anna-quindlen-qz3s","Anna Quindlen",[559,560,561],{"id":286,"name":287,"slug":288,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":562,"name":563,"slug":564,"is_fiction":19},70,"History","history",[],{"pace":158,"complexity":7,"audience":50,"mood":567,"themes":569,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[110,568],"intellectual",[],[]]
