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,[168],{"id":169,"slug":170,"name":171},"01kx2e8p7gpq0q6j29w5f8a61g","marcus-samuelsson-vhwh","Marcus Samuelsson",[173,174,175],{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":176,"name":177,"slug":178,"is_fiction":19},112,"Cooking","cooking",[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":181,"themes":183,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[119,182],"heartwarming",[],{"id":185,"slug":186,"title":187,"description":188,"primary_cover_url":189,"cover_blurhash":190,"first_publish_year":191,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":192,"authors":193,"genres":198,"series":213,"enrichment":214},"01kk2bwnt93qxyf28tj5scfyqe","reconstruction-klgj","Reconstruction","A definitive account of Reconstruction—the period after the American Civil War when the defeated Southern states were reintegrated into the Union and millions of formerly enslaved people fought for citizenship, land, and political power.

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[",2021,320,[252],{"id":253,"slug":254,"name":255},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[257,258,259],{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":19},{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":262,"themes":263,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[60,59,119],[],{"id":265,"slug":266,"title":267,"description":268,"primary_cover_url":269,"cover_blurhash":270,"first_publish_year":271,"community_rating_avg":272,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":273,"authors":274,"genres":279,"series":287,"enrichment":288},"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,[275],{"id":276,"slug":277,"name":278},"01kx27x0zrw9wv52302kf5f000","lacy-crawford-9d4g","Lacy Crawford",[280,281,285,286],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":282,"name":283,"slug":284,"is_fiction":19},104,"True Crime","true-crime",{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":238,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":289,"themes":292,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[290,59,291],"dark","tense",[],{"id":294,"slug":295,"title":296,"description":297,"primary_cover_url":298,"cover_blurhash":299,"first_publish_year":300,"community_rating_avg":301,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":302,"authors":303,"genres":308,"series":314,"enrichment":315},"01kx27vt93abm1mswyac5thvv0","mockingbird-ic4g","Mockingbird","In the 1930s Southern United States, young Scout Finch watches her father Atticus take on a case that will expose the rot beneath their small Alabama town's polite surface: defending Tom Robinson, a Black man falsely accused of raping a white woman.

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,[332],{"id":333,"slug":334,"name":335},"01kp6bp47w9safdqgdwwkjyevb","sloane-crosley-poem","Sloane Crosley",[337,338,342],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":339,"name":340,"slug":341,"is_fiction":18},119,"Humor","humor",{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":345,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":346,"themes":348,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"fast",[347,59],"funny",[],{"id":350,"slug":351,"title":352,"description":353,"primary_cover_url":354,"cover_blurhash":355,"first_publish_year":300,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":356,"authors":357,"genres":366,"series":376,"enrichment":381},"01kr46mctkvvegs7mecy8px1wm","seasonal-affective-disorder-for-dummies-rfky","Seasonal Affective Disorder for Dummies","This guide offers practical advice and strategies for understanding and managing Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).

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.

New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster is here to help you chill the hell out. When did USA become shorthand for the United States of Anxiety? 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. Take a deep breath, and her advice, and you just might get through a holiday dinner without wanting to disown your uncle.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24zszwedvs19tq67vxh7p3.jpg?v=9ff3146129","LGP~i{ivTI%LITROSzbb~XkX=|t8",288,[653],{"id":654,"slug":655,"name":656},"01kx24zszryj8z6dqsn3besyaf","jen-lancaster-xp7x","Jen Lancaster",[658,659,660,661],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":369,"name":370,"slug":371,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":339,"name":340,"slug":341,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":664,"themes":665,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[347,59],[320],{"key":667,"params":668,"works":669},"genre_mood",{"genre":38,"mood":59},[670,689,711,736,756,782],{"id":671,"slug":672,"title":673,"description":674,"primary_cover_url":675,"cover_blurhash":676,"first_publish_year":486,"community_rating_avg":301,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":7,"authors":677,"genres":682,"series":685,"enrichment":686},"01kx29pk4ftngfjrz51ndpxg54","pretty-is-what-changes-kamt","Pretty is what changes","A timely, affecting memoir from the front lines of medical science: When genetics can predict how we may die, how then do we decide how to live?Eleven months after her mother succumbs to cancer, Jessica Queller has herself tested for the BRCA \"breast cancer\" gene mutation. The results come back positive, putting her at a terrifyingly elevated risk of developing breast cancer before the age of fifty and ovarian cancer in her lifetime. Thirty-four, unattached, and yearning for marriage and a family of her own, Queller faces an agonizing choice: a lifetime of vigilant screenings and a commitment to fight the disease when caught, or its radical alternative--a prophylactic double mastectomy that would effectively restore life to her, even as it would challenge her most closely held beliefs about body image, identity, and sexuality. Superbly informed and armed with surprising wit and style, Queller takes us on an odyssey from the frontiers of science to the private interiors of a woman's life. Pretty Is What Changes is an absorbing account of how she reaches her courageous decision and its physical, emotional, and philosophical consequences. It is also an incredibly moving story of what we inherit from our parents and how we fashion it into the stuff of our own lives, of mothers and daughters and sisters, and of the sisterhood that forms when women are united in battle against a common enemy. Without flinching, Jessica Queller answers a question we may one day face for ourselves: If genes can map our fates and their dark knowledge is offered to us, will we willingly trade innocence for the information that could save our lives?","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx29pk4xaj1sqxpbzrfb96av.jpg?v=f09e218928","LPM?k~4:NbxZ^j~qxZMxxZ%1ofRk",[678],{"id":679,"slug":680,"name":681},"01kx29pk4thz1qfrka4yvg6s15","jessica-queller-tlrd","Jessica Queller",[683,684],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":687,"themes":688,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[119,59],[],{"id":690,"slug":691,"title":692,"description":693,"primary_cover_url":694,"cover_blurhash":695,"first_publish_year":486,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":7,"authors":696,"genres":701,"series":707,"enrichment":708},"01kx26j166rymhd2x1hx3q0pdd","the-middle-place-4t8p","The Middle Place","For Kelly Corrigan, family is everything. At thirty-six, she had a marriage that worked, two funny, active kids, and a weekly newspaper column. But even as a thriving adult, Kelly still saw herself as the daughter of garrulous Irish-American charmer George Corrigan. She was living deep within what she calls the Middle Place--\"that sliver of time when parenthood and childhood overlap\"--comfortably wedged between her adult duties and her parents' care. But Kelly is abruptly shoved into coming-of-age when she finds a lump in her breast--and gets the diagnosis no one wants to hear. When George, too, learns that he has late-stage cancer, it is Kelly's turn to take care of the man who had always taken care of her--and to show us a woman who finally takes the leap and grows up.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26j1963n7vkkemmzyz9d0j.jpg?v=3686fbbf80","L7D2XgD402Yk00xJ:OVE4TXB{Kr;",[697],{"id":698,"slug":699,"name":700},"01kx26j193bgmc2pzx3gm5h0a0","kelly-corrigan-gg1c","Kelly Corrigan",[702,703,706],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":80,"name":704,"slug":705,"is_fiction":18},"Women's Fiction","womens-fiction",{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":709,"themes":710,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[60,59],[],{"id":712,"slug":713,"title":714,"description":715,"primary_cover_url":716,"cover_blurhash":717,"first_publish_year":718,"community_rating_avg":272,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":719,"authors":720,"genres":725,"series":732,"enrichment":733},"01kx266qjcyjwesd15qm19wzcf","imagined-london-a-tour-of-the-worlds-greatest-fictional-city-usi4","Imagined London A Tour of the World's Greatest Fictional City","Anna Quindlen first visited London from a chair in her suburban Philadelphia home—in one of her beloved childhood mystery novels. 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...

Going to Parties in Tehran. Watching the Marx Brothers in Tehran. ReadingLolitain Tehran.” I wrote about repressive laws and executions, about public and political abominations. Eventually I drifted into writing about private betrayals, implicating myself and those close to me in ways I had never imagined. --FromThings I Have Been Silent About Azar Nafisi, author of the beloved international bestsellerReading Lolita in Tehran, now gives us a stunning personal story of growing up in Iran, memories of her life lived in thrall to a powerful and complex mother, against the background of a country’s political revolution. A girl’s pain over family secrets; a young woman’s discovery of the power of sensuality in literature; the price a family pays for freedom in a country beset by political upheaval–these and other threads are woven together in this beautiful memoir, as a gifted storyteller once again transforms the way we see the world and “reminds us of why we read in the first place” (Newsday). Nafisi’s intelligent and complicated mother, disappointed in her dreams of leading an important and romantic life, created mesmerizing fictions about herself, her family, and her past. But her daughter soon learned that these narratives of triumph hid as much as they revealed. Nafisi’s father escaped into narratives of another kind, enchanting his children with the classic tales like the Shahnamah, the Persian Book of Kings. When her father started seeing other women, young Azar began to keep his secrets from her mother. Nafisi’s complicity in these childhood dramas ultimately led her to resist remaining silent about other personal, as well as political, cultural, and social, injustices. Reaching back in time to reflect on other generations in the Nafisi family,Things I’ve Been Silent Aboutis also a powerful historical portrait of a family that spans many periods of change leading up to the Islamic Revolution of 1978-79, which turned Azar Nafisi’s beloved Iran into a religious dictatorship. Writing of her mother’s historic term in Parliament, even while her father, once mayor of Tehran, was in jail, Nafisi explores the remarkable “coffee hours” her mother presided over, where at first women came together to gossip, to tell fortunes, and to give silent acknowledgment of things never spoken about, and which then evolved into gatherings where men and women would meet to openly discuss the unfolding revolution. Things I’ve Been Silent Aboutis, finally, a deeply personal reflection on women’s choices, and on how Azar Nafisi found the inspiration for a different kind of life. This unforgettable portrait of a woman, a family, and a troubled homeland is a stunning book that readers will embrace, a new triumph from an author who is a modern master of the memoir.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx25x5bn1k9fxsbnce4a8acr.jpg?v=5b58a6e597","LuNmc-s;t7t7~qbHWBjaI9f6ofWV",352,[765],{"id":766,"slug":767,"name":768},"01kjtmqk5cxq3h0pf50v43vqd0","azar-nafisi-5wth","Azar Nafisi",[770,771,772,773,777],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":774,"name":775,"slug":776,"is_fiction":19},79,"Education","education",{"id":205,"name":206,"slug":207,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":238,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":780,"themes":781,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[59,60],[],{"id":783,"slug":784,"title":785,"description":786,"primary_cover_url":787,"cover_blurhash":788,"first_publish_year":514,"community_rating_avg":301,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":789,"authors":790,"genres":795,"series":800,"enrichment":801},"01kx23jnsw322gpqmw2n0xsfmt","i-am-the-central-park-jogger-a-story-of-hope-and-possibility-vqw6","I Am the Central Park Jogger A Story of Hope and Possibility","A timeless, “triumphant” (Entertainment Weekly) story of healing and recovery from the victim of a crime that shocked the nation: the Central Park Jogger.

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,[839],{"id":840,"slug":841,"name":842},"01kx261n3k5t80xy0mzb61mdmq","clara-rojas-3jsp","Clara Rojas",[844,845,846],{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":19},{"id":282,"name":283,"slug":284,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":345,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":849,"themes":850,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[291,290,61],[],{"id":852,"slug":853,"title":854,"description":855,"primary_cover_url":856,"cover_blurhash":857,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":858,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":859,"authors":860,"genres":865,"series":869,"enrichment":870},"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.

At the age of thirty-five, Jenifer dreams of falling in love and starting a family. Then she notices muscle twitches in her legs. Walking down a city block feels exhausting. At first, doctors write off Jenifer's symptoms to stress, but she is quickly diagnosed with ALS, a fatal brain disease that is absolutely untreatable. Max out your credit cards and see Paris, suggests one doctor. Instead of preparing to die, Jenifer gets busy. She dreams deeper, works harder, and loves endlessly. For Jenifer, being fatally ill is not about letting go. It's about holding on and reaching -- for family, friends, goals. Jenifer's girlhood pact with her sisters Valerie and Meredith -- nothing will ever break us apart -- guides them as Jenifer faces down one of the most devastating illnesses known to humankind. That same enduring pact inspires the creation of Project A.L.S., a movement started by the sisters that changes the way science and medicine approach research for ALS and the related diseases Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, and which has already raised more than $18 million. Will Project A.L.S. help scientists discover medicine in time for her? Jenifer answers these questions and others in this beautifully written and wholly inspiring memoir that celebrates a life fuelled by memory. Tales from the Bed forces us to reconsider society's notion of \"having it all,\" and illustrates, more than anything, the importance of endurance, hope, and, most of all, love.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26sra2yzybkykb7sgbdx5d.jpg?v=a08a7d0d56","LADSzXIUf4Rj00t7ogWX~TWAWBae",[916],{"id":917,"slug":918,"name":919},"01kx26sr9xg16swz528apnqc3e","jenifer-estess-dxas","Jenifer Estess",[921,922,923],{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":19},{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":926,"themes":927,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[119,60],[],[]]
