 stock image, actual book may vary David Ebershoff's shockingly original debut novel, The Danish Girl , which explored the boundaries of love and gender, was hailed by critics around the world. The Boston Globe called it "heartbreaking and unforgettable . . . a complete triumph" and the Chicago Tribune praised it for its "startling refinement and beauty." His first collection, The Rose City combines a bouquet of vivid characters with Ebershoff's trademark emotional insight and lush prose in seven stories about young men and boys making their way in a chaotic world. Often tragic but lacking in despair, The Rose City delves into the tribulations of everyday life, identity, and sexuality. Each story is about someone from or moving to Pasadena, a part of California, as the character in the title story says, "Where the real history is." In "Chuck Paa" a young man in flight from his misdemeanant mother seeks and finds employment in an upscale world which can never quite become his own. In the title story, "The Rose City," remembrance and a shared lost love bring together ex-lovers who reunite to reflect on their past, their present, and what lies ahead. What they discover is that relationships rarely turn out the way you want them to-especially when your ex has moved on to a house and home life and you're left alone, foot tapping, waiting around for Mr. Right. With the same insight and daring of The Danish Girl , The Rose City secures David Ebershoff's reputation as a writer of rare talent and sensitivity.

 stock image, actual book may vary Yambo, a sixtyish rare-book dealer who lives in Milan, has suffered a loss of memory-he can remember the plot of every book he has ever read, every line of poetry, but he no longer knows his own name, doesn't recognize his wife or his daughters, and remembers nothing about his parents or his childhood. In an effort to retrieve his past, he withdraws to the family home somewhere in the hills between Milan and Turin.There, in the sprawling attic, he searches through boxes of old newspapers, comics, records, photo albums, and adolescent diaries. And so Yambo relives the story of his generation: Mussolini, Catholic education and guilt, Josephine Baker, Flash Gordon, Fred Astaire. His memories run wild, and the life racing before his eyes takes the form of a graphic novel. Yambo struggles through the frames to capture one simple, innocent image: that of his first love. A fascinating, abundant new novel-wide-ranging, nostalgic, funny, full of heart-from the incomparable Eco. 20050601

People People, Summer s Best Books Entertainment Weekly, 8 Big Fat Beach Reads Woman s Day, Great Summer Reads Publishers Weekly, Best Summer Books Good Housekeeping, Your Ultimate Summer Reading List Minneapolis Star Tribune, 10 Novels Not to Miss Coastal Living, Great Summer Reads Time Out New York, Summer Reading List Goop Newsletter, Best Summer 15 Reading Fans of I Don t Know How She Does It and Where d You Go, Bernadette will cheer at this fresh, funny take on the age-old struggle to have it all People about what happens when a wife and mother of three leaps at the chance to fulfill her professional destiny only to learn every opportunity comes at a price. In A Window Opens , beloved books editor at Glamour magazine Elisabeth Egan brings us Alice Pearse, a compulsively honest, longing-to-have-it-all, sandwich generation heroine for our social-media-obsessed, lean in or opt out age. Like her fictional forebears Kate Reddy and Bridget Jones, Alice plays many roles which she never refers to as wearing many hats and wishes you wouldn t, either . She is a mostly-happily married mother of three, an attentive daughter, an ambivalent dog-owner, a part-time editor, a loyal neighbor and a Zen commuter. She is not: a cook, a craftswoman, a decorator, an active PTA member, a natural caretaker or the breadwinner. But when her husband makes a radical career change, Alice is ready to lean in and she knows exactly how lucky she is to land a job at Scroll, a hip young start-up which promises to be the future of reading, with its chain of chic literary lounges and dedication to beloved classics. The Holy Grail of working mothers an intellectually satisfying job and a happy personal life seems suddenly within reach. Despite the disapproval of her best friend, who owns the local bookstore, Alice is proud of her new balancing act which is more like a three-ring circus until her dad gets sick, her marriage flounders, her babysitter gets fed up, her kids start to grow up and her work takes an unexpected turn. Readers will cheer as Alice realizes the question is not whether it s possible to have it all, but what does she Alice Pearse really want?
