 stock image, actual book may vary Julian Donahue is in love with his iPod. Each song that shuffles through that greatest of all human inventions triggers a memory. There are songs for the girls from when he was single; there s the one for the day he met his wife-to-be, and another for the day his son was born. But when his family falls apart, even music loses its hold on him, and he has nothing. Until one snowy night in Brooklyn, when his life s soundtrack and life itself starts to play again. He stumbles into a bar and sees Cait O Dwyer, a flame-haired Irish rock singer, performing with her band, and a strange and unlikely love affair is ignited. Over the next few months, Julian and Cait s passion for music and each other is played out, though they never meet. In cryptic emails, text messages, cell-phone videos, and lyrics posted on Cait s website, they find something in their bizarre friendship that they cannot find anywhere else. Cait s star is on the rise, and Julian gently guides her along her path to fame but always from a distance and she responds to the one voice who understands her, more than a fan but still less than a lover. As their feelings grow more feverish, keeping a safe distance becomes impossible. What follows is a love story and a uniquely heartbreaking dark comedy about obsession and loss. Called one of the best writers in America by The Washington Post , the bestselling author of Prague delivers his finest work yet in The Song Is You . It is a closely observed tale of love in the digital age that blurs the line between the longing for intimacy and the longing for oblivion.

 stock image, actual book may vary In this searing novel, Caryl Phillips reimagines the life of the first black entertainer in the U.S. to reach the highest levels of fame and fortune.After years of struggling for success on the stage, Bert Williams 1874 1922 , the child of recent immigrants from the Bahamas, made the radical decision to don blackface makeup and play the coon. Behind this mask he became a Broadway headliner as influential a comedian as Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy, and W. C. Fields, who called him the funniest man I ever saw, and the saddest man I ever knew. It is this dichotomy at Williams core that Phillips explores in this richly nuanced, brilliantly written novel, unblinking in its attention to the sinister compromises that make up an identity.

 stock image, actual book may vary Every life has a soundtrack. All you have to do is listen. Music has set the tone for most of Zoe Baxter s life. There s the melody that reminds her of the summer she spent rubbing baby oil on her stomach in pursuit of the perfect tan. A dance beat that makes her think of using a fake ID to slip into a nightclub. A dirge that marked the years she spent trying to get pregnant. For better or for worse, music is the language of memory. It is also the language of love. In the aftermath of a series of personal tragedies, Zoe throws herself into her career as a music therapist. When an unexpected friendship slowly blossoms into love, she makes plans for a new life, but to her shock and inevitable rage, some people even those she loves and trusts most don t want that to happen. Sing You Home is about identity, love, marriage, and parenthood. It s about people wanting to do the right thing for the greater good, even as they work to fulfill their own personal desires and dreams. And it s about what happens when the outside world brutally calls into question the very thing closest to our hearts: family. Includes a compact disc of original songs.

 stock image, actual book may vary NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE AND THE HUFFINGTON POST Features an exclusive conversation between Julia Pierpont and Lena Dunham For fans of Jennifer Egan, Jonathan Franzen, Lorrie Moore, and Curtis Sittenfeld, Among the Ten Thousand Things is a dazzling first novel, a portrait of an American family on the cusp of irrevocable change, and a startlingly original story of love and time lost. Jack Shanley is a well-known New York artist, charming and vain, who doesn t mean to plunge his family into crisis. His wife, Deb, gladly left behind a difficult career as a dancer to raise the two children she adores. In the ensuing years, she has mostly avoided coming face-to-face with the weaknesses of the man she married. But then an anonymously sent package arrives in the mail: a cardboard box containing sheaves of printed emails chronicling Jack s secret life. The package is addressed to Deb, but it s delivered into the wrong hands: her children s. With this vertiginous opening begins a debut that is by turns funny, wise, and indescribably moving. As the Shanleys spin apart into separate orbits, leaving New York in an attempt to regain their bearings, fifteen-year-old Simon feels the allure of adult freedoms for the first time, while eleven-year-old Kay wanders precariously into a grown-up world she can t possibly understand. Writing with extraordinary precision, humor, and beauty, Julia Pierpont has crafted a timeless, hugely enjoyable novel about the bonds of family life their brittleness, and their resilience. Praise for Among the Ten Thousand Things A luscious, smart summer novel . . . by a blazingly talented young author. The New York Times Book Review This book is one of the funniest, and most emotionally honest, I ve read in a long time. Jonathan Safran Foer Obsessively compelling . . . emotionally sophisticated . . . Among the Ten Thousand Things rises above other novels for its imagined structure, sentence-by-sentence punch, and pure humanity. Vanity Fair Gripping . . . Pierpont brings this family of four to life in sharply observed detail. . . . An acute observer of social comedy, Ms. Pierpont has a keen eye for the absurd. The Wall Street Journal Pierpont s language is heart-stopping. . . . Between Pierpont s literary finesse and her captivating characters, Among the Ten Thousand Things reads like a page-turner. Entertainment Weekly grade: A A twisty, gripping story that packs an emotional wallop. O: The Oprah Magazine There are going to be as many ingenious twists and turns in this literary novel as there are in a top-notch work of suspense like Gone Girl . Maureen Corrigan, NPR s Fresh Air Tender, delicately perceptive . . . Pierpont s voice is wry and confident, and she is a fine anthropologist of New York life. The Washington Post Pierpont displays a precocious gift for language and observation. . . . She captures the minutiae of loneliness that pushes us away from each other and sometimes brings us back. San Francisco Chronicle
