<p><strong>Praised as the "female Jack Reacher," Camaro Espinoza is about to turn the tables on a violent stalker in this pulse-pounding crime thriller (</strong> <em><strong>The Toronto Star</strong></em> <strong>).</strong></p> <p>Life in Miami isn't complicated for ex-army medic Camaro Espinoza: Piloting charter fishing trips, fighting at the gym, drinking at the bar. Simple doesn't mean stable, though, and two complicating factorsーokay, peopleーare about to disrupt Camaro's relative peace.</p> <p>Faith Glazer, an accountant with no way to defend herself, begs Camaro's help to stop a stalker who follows her every move. While Ignacio Montellano, a detective on the homicide beat, wants to be her guardian angel and all too deftly finds ways to insert himself in her path.</p> <p>When Faith's stalker takes his obsession to a new, frightening level, Camaro might find reason to appreciate Montellano after all. The deeper they look, the more trouble they find: federal agents, money-launderers, crooked security contractors, and paramilitary killers. Every one of them with a reason to come after Faith, and to put Camaro down. But Camaro doesn't flinch when violence comes her way. And she has a singular talent for making her enemies sorry they ever heard her name.</p> <p><strong>"Camaro is a lean, mean, fighting machine and a woman of very few words. But that's ok because she says plenty with her fists." ー</strong> <em><strong>Criminal Element</strong></em></p> <p><strong>"Tightly plotted . . . the action-packed narrative derives its real power from the complex character of Camaro, whose toughness and bad attitude make Jack Reacher look like a choir boy." ー</strong> <em><strong>Publishers Weekly</strong></em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong><em>Taking Down the Lion</em> offers an inside look at the career of Tyco's most infamous CEO, and what exactly brought him down so publicly.</strong><br /> As the widely-admired CEO of Tyco International, Dennis Kozlowski grew a little-known New Hampshire conglomerate into a global giant. In a stunning series of events, Kozlowski suddenly lost his job along with his favored public status when he was indicted by legendary Manhattan DA Robert Morgenthauーit was an inglorious end to an otherwise brilliant career. Kozlowski was the face of corporate excess in the turbulent post-Enron environment; he was pictured under headlines that read "Oink Oink," and publicly castigated for his extravagant lifestyle. "Deal-a-Day Dennis" was transformed into the "poster child for corporate greed." Kozlowski was ultimately convicted of grand larceny and other crimes that, in sum, found the former CEO guilty of wrongfully taking $100 million from Tyco.<br /> <em>Taking Down the Lion</em> shines a bright light on former CEO Dennis Kozlowski and the Tyco corporate scandalーit is the definitive telling of a largely misunderstood episode in U.S. business history. In an unfiltered view of corporate America, Catherine S. Neal pulls back the curtain to reveal a world of big business, ambition, money, and an epidemic of questionable ethics that infected not only business dealings but extended to attorneys, journalists, politicians, and the criminal justice system.<br /> When the ugly truth is told, it's clear the "good guys" were not all good and the "bad guys" not all bad. And there were absolutely no heroes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos head-on, boldly upturning his fear of the unknown with a heart-warming story of found family, acceptance, and perseverance in the face of human cruelty and the cosmic apathy of the universe. Emrys brings together a family of outsiders, bridging the gaps between the many people marginalized by the homogenizing pressure of 1940s America . . .<br /> Aphra Marsh, descendant of the People of the Water, has survived Deep One internment camps and made a grudging peace with the government that destroyed her home and exterminated her people on land. <em>Deep Roots</em> continues Aphra's journey to rebuild her life and family on land, as she tracks down long-lost relatives.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Sympathy for the Devil Four Decades of Friendship with Gore Vidal【電子書籍】[ Michael Mewshaw ]
<p><strong>A generous, entertaining, intimate look at Gore Vidal, a man who prided himself on being difficult to know</strong></p> <p>Detached and ironic; a master of the pointed put-down, of the cutting quip; enigmatic, impossible to truly know: This is the calcified, public image of Gore Vidalーone the man himself was fond of reinforcing. "I'm exactly as I appear," he once said of himself. "There is no warm, lovable person inside. Beneath my cold exterior, once you break the ice, you find cold water."<br /> Michael Mewshaw's <em>Sympathy for the Devil</em>, a memoir of his friendship with the stubbornly iconoclastic public intellectual, is a welcome corrective to this tired received wisdom. A complex, nuanced portrait emerges in these pagesーand while "Gore" can indeed be brusque, standoffish, even cruel, Mewshaw also catches him in more vulnerable moments. The Gore Vidal the reader comes to know here is generous and supportive to younger, less successful writers; he is also, especially toward the end of his life, disappointed, even lonely.<br /> Sparkling, often hilarious, and filled with spicy anecdotes about expat life in Italy, <em>Sympathy for the Devil</em> is an irresistible inside account of a man who was himselfーfaults and allーimpossible to resist. As enlightening as it is entertaining, it offers a unique look at a figure many only think they know.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>"Scapellato's blend of existential noir, absurdist humor, literary fiction, and surreal exploration of performance art merges into something special. . . . <em>The Made-Up Man</em> is a rare novel that is simultaneously smart and entertaining." ーGabino Iglesias, NPR</strong></p> <p>Stanley had known it was a mistake to accept his uncle Lech's offer to apartment-sit in Pragueーhe'd known it was one of Lech's <em>proposals</em>, a thinly veiled setup for some invasive, potentially dangerous performance art project. But whatever Lech had planned for Stanley, it would get him to Prague and maybe offer a chance to make things right with T after his failed attempt to propose.<br /> Stanley can take it. He can ignore their hijinks, resist being drafted into their evolving, darkening script. As the operation unfolds it becomes clear there's more to this performance than he expected; they know more about Stanley's state of mind than he knows himself. He may be able to step over chalk outlines in the hallway, may be able to turn away from the women acting as his mother or the men performing as his father, but when a man made up to look like Stanley begins to play out his most devastating memory, he won't be able to stand outside this imitation of his life any longer.<br /> Immediately and wholly immersive, Joseph Scapellato's debut novel, <em>The Made-Up Man</em>, is a hilarious examination of art's role in self-knowledge, a sinister send-up of self-deception, and a big-hearted investigation into the cast of characters necessary to help us finally meet ourselves.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A brutal, and unrelenting examination of what it means to be a woman in a body, wanting, needing, wanting, needing so much." ーRoxanne Gay</strong><br /> Rose and Lily Winters are twins, as close as the bond implies; they feel each other's emotions, taste what the other takes in. Like most young women, they've struggled with their bodies since childhood, and high school finds them turning to foodーor away from itーto battle the waves of insecurity and the yearning for popularity. But their connection can be as destructive as it is supportive, a yin to yang. When Rose stops eating, Lily startsーconsuming everything Rose won't or can't.<br /> Within a few years, Rose is about to mark her one-year anniversary in a rehabilitation facility for anorexics. Lily, her sole visitor, is the only thing tethering her to a normal life. But Lily's own struggles, while less apparent than her sister's, are equally profound. A kindergarten teacher, she dates abusive men, including a student's married father, in search of the close yet complicated companionship she lost when Rose entered rehab. When Lily joins an extreme cult-diet groupーled by a social media faux feministーand begins to lose weight at an alarming rate, Rose determines to become well enough to leave the facility to save.

<p><strong>An interior look at Roberto Calasso's work as a publisher and his reflections on the art of book publishing</strong></p> <p>In this fascinating memoir, the author and publisher Roberto Calasso meditates on the art of book publishing. Recalling the beginnings of Adelphi in the 1960s, he touches on the Italian house's defining qualities, including the considerations involved in designing the successful <em>Biblioteca</em> series and the strategy for publishing a wide range of authors of high literary quality, as well as the historic critical edition of the works of Nietzsche.<br /> With his signature erudition and polemical flair, Calasso transcends Adelphi to look at the publishing industry as a whole, from the essential importance of graphics, jackets, and cover flaps to the consequences of universal digitization. And he outlines what he describes as the "most hazardous and ambitious" profile of what a publishing house can be: a book comprising many books, a <em>form</em> in which "all the books published by a certain publisher could be seen as links in a single chain"ーa conception akin to that of other twentieth-century publishers, from Giulio Einaudi to Roger Straus, of whom the book offers brief portraits.<br /> An essential book for writers, readers, and editors, <em>The Art of the Publisher</em> is a tribute to the elusive yet profoundly relevant art of making books.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>A biography of the Tony Award?winning director-choreographer from Broadway's Golden Age.</strong></p> <p><strong>"Packed with detail, anecdotes and insight, this look at director-choreographer Champion's work leaves no step unturned…. Gilvey reaches the top shelf of high-kicking Broadway biographies." ー</strong> <em><strong>Kirkus Reviews</strong></em> <strong>(starred review)</strong></p> <p>During the Golden Age of the Broadway musical, few director-choreographers could infuse a new musical with dance and movement in quite the way Gower Champion could. From his earliest Broadway success with <em>Bye Bye Birdie</em> to his triumphant and bittersweet valedictory, <em>42nd Street</em>, musicals directed by Champion filled the proscenium with life. At their best, they touched the heart and stirred the soul with a skillful blend of elegance and American showmanship.<br /> He began his career as one-half of "America's Youngest Dance Team" with Jeanne Tyler and later teamed with his wife, dance partner, and longtime collaborator, Marge Champion. This romantic ballroom duo danced across America in the smartest clubs and onto the television screen, performing story dances that captivated the country. They ultimately took their talent to Hollywood, where they starred in the 1951 remake of <em>Show Boat</em>, <em>Lovely to Look At</em>, and other films. But Broadway always called to Champion, and in 1959 he was tapped to direct <em>Bye Bye Birdie</em>. The rest is history.<br /> In shows like <em>Birdie, Carnival</em>, <em>Hello, Dolly!</em>, <em>I Do! I Do!</em>, <em>Sugar</em>, and <em>42nd Street</em>, luminaries such as Chita Rivera, Dick Van Dyke, Carol Channing, Mary Martin, Robert Preston, Tony Roberts, Robert Morse, Tammy Grimes, and Jerry Orbach brought Champion's creative vision to life. Working with composers and writers like Jerry Herman, Michael Stewart, Charles Strouse, Lee Adams, and Bob Merrill, he streamlined the musical making it flow effortlessly with song and dance from start to finish.<br /> Author John Gilvey has spoken with many of the people who worked with Champion, and in <em>Before the Parade Passes By</em> he tells the life story of this most American of Broadway musical director-choreographers from his early days dancing with Marge to his final days spent meticulously honing the visual magic of <em>42nd Street</em>. This book is the life story of one man who personified the glory of the Broadway musical right up until the moment of his untimely death. When the curtain fell to thunderous applause on the opening night of <em>42nd Street</em>, August 25, 1980, legendary impresario David Merrick came forward, silenced the audience, and announced that Champion had died that morning. As eminent theatre critic Ethan Mordden has firmly put it, "the Golden Age was over."<br /> Though the Golden Age of the Broadway musical is over, John Gilvey brings it to life again by telling the story of Gower Champion, one of its most passionate and creative legends.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A decorated Eagle Scout who barely graduated from high school, the young man from Macon, Georgia, with an oversize personality used dogged determination to achieve his childhood dream of becoming a famed fighter pilot.<br /> First capturing national attention during World War II, Scott, a West Point graduate, flew missions in China alongside the legendary "Flying Tigers," where his reckless courage and victories against the enemy made headlines. Upon returning home, Scott's memoir, brashly titled <em>God Is My Co-Pilot</em>, became an instant bestseller, a successful film, and one of the most important books of its time. Later in life, as a retired military general, Scott continued to add to his list of accomplishments. He traveled the entire length of China's Great Wall and helped found Georgia's Museum of Aviation, which still welcomes 400,000 annual visitors.<br /> Yet Scott's life was not without difficulty. His single-minded pursuit of greatness was offset by debilitating bouts of depression, and his brashness placed him at odds with superior officers, wreaking havoc on his career. What wealth he gained he squandered, and his numerous public affairs destroyed his relationships with his wife and child.<br /> Backed by meticulous research, <em>Double Ace</em> brings Scott's uniquely American character to life and captures his fascinating exploits as a national hero alongside his frustrating foibles.<br /> **"A provocative, deftly written, and superbly documented biography that is highly recommended for military historians and aviation specialists, general readers, and all libraries." ー <em>Library Journal (<em>starred review)</em></em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Though Dillon’s wife, Doris, passed away after more than 50 years of marriage, her death didn’t diminish the relationship they’d shared.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Third Girl From The Left A Novel【電子書籍】[ Martha Southgate ]
<p>The New York Times hailed Martha Southgate's previous novel, The Fall of Rome, as "powerful," O, the Oprah Magazine called it "quietly accomplished," and Essence lauded it as "a bracingly honest look at race, class, and self-acceptance." With Third Girl from the Left, Southgate brings her acute vision and emotional scope to a larger canvas. This enormously entertaining yet serious novel tells a story of African-American women struggling against all odds to express what lies deepest in their hearts. Like Michael Chabon's The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay or E. L. Doctorow's Ragtime, it ranges freely through time, fact, and fiction to weave an enthralling story about history and art and their place in the lives of three women. "My mother believed in the power of movies and the people in them to change a life, to change her life." So explains Tamara, daughter of Angela, granddaughter of Mildred ー the three women whose lives are portrayed in stunning detail in this ambitious novel spanning three generations of one family.<br /> Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1970 is not a place a smart black girl wants to linger. For Angela, twenty years old and beautiful, the stifling conformity is unbearable. She heads to Los Angeles just as blaxploitation movies are pouring money into the studios and lands a few bit parts before an unplanned pregnancy derails her plans for stardom.<br /> For Mildred, movies have always been a blessed diversion in a life marked by the legacy of the 1921 Tulsa race riots. But after Angela leaves Tulsa following a bitter fight, the distance between them grows into a breach that remains for years. It falls to Tamara, a budding documentarian ー raised in LA by Angela as though they have no family, no history ー to help mother and grandmother confront all that has been silenced and left unsaid in their lives.<br /> A bold, beautifully written, and deeply involving novel, Third Girl from the Left deftly examines the pull of the movies, the power of desire, and the bonds of family in a quintessentially American story.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Rockin' the Kremlin My Incredible True Story of Gangsters, Oligarchs, and Pop Stars in Putin's Russia【電子書籍】[ David Junk ]
<p><strong>Read the true story of Universal Music Russia’s first CEO and his quest to bring Western popular music to post-Soviet Russia in an account that</strong> <em><strong>Publishers Weekly</strong></em> <strong>calls "an exciting and colorful look at a dynamic period in Russia’s cultural history" and</strong> <em><strong>Library Journal</strong></em> <strong>calls an "absorbing illustration of the mutuality of music and politics."</strong><br /> When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, Russia opened its borders, and Russian audiences were hungry for Western popular music and the values it espoused. David Junk was one of the first idealistic, young Americans to seize this opportunity.<br /> <em>Rockin’ the Kremlin</em> is the thrilling true story of how David became the first CEO of Universal Music Russia and built impactful cultural bridges with musicーbut also how that would all shatter with the rise of Vladimir Putin and invasions of Ukraine. There was no proper music industry in the USSR, and creating a modern music industry in Russia would be far more challenging than anyone had anticipated. David assembled a team of young and talented Russians, and they navigated a terrain filled with political chaos, organized crime, powerful oligarchs, bombings, and violenceーwith cultural clashes tinting many aspects. They captivated millions by bringing superstar acts to Russia for the first time ever, including Metallica, Mariah Carey, Sting, Eminem, and Enrique Iglesias, while developing local talent such as Alsou and t.A.T.u.ーRussia’s greatest selling pop act of all time. Eventually, David would even build a music industry in Ukraine and other countries in Eastern Europe.<br /> While Russia’s descent into authoritarianism and two invasions of Ukraine have tarnished this, the industry that David shepherded has birthed a newer generation of Russian musicians who are speaking out against the war and Putin. Filled with unique insights as well as grippingーand sometimes humorousーstories, this book reveals how it all happened.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>An inside look at the faith that guides the all-stars.</strong></p> <p>The St. Louis Cardinals have long been one of the most successful franchises in the major leagues. They have won 11 World Series titles and some of the most famous players in the history of the game have worn the storied "Birds on the Bat" uniform.</p> <p>While that on-field success has been well documented, <em>Intentional Walk</em> is the first book which goes beyond the story of what happens on the field to take an in-depth look at the men inside the Cardinal uniforms, and examine how their strong Christian faith is one of the driving forces behind their success.</p> <p><em>Intentional Walk</em> features the stories of Adam Wainwright, David Freese, Lance Berkman, Matt Holliday, Carlos Beltran, Jason Motte and other members of the 2012 Cardinals, written as those players and the rest of the team tried to repeat the 2011 world championship. The book talks about how they became Christians and offers their testimony about what it means for them to have God play such a prominent role in their lives.</p> <p>Playing for first-year manager Mike Matheny, a strong Christian as well, these men talk about their success and failure, about the challenges that come from playing baseball at the highest level, and how thankful and blessed they are to have that God-given ability. In the end, however, what is far more important to them is their life-long relationship they have established with Jesus Christ.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
