Description:
New York: Crown, 2021. First edition. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Signed by the author on a tipped-in sheet. Rogen writes: "Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it's likely the former, which is a fancy "book" way of saying "the first one.") I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs, and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like. I also talk about some of my adventures in Los Angeles, and surely say things about other famous people that will create a wildly awkward conversation for me at a party one day"

Description:
New York: Knopf, 2019. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Following a run of New Year's concerts at San Francisco's legendary Fillmore, Patti Smith finds herself tramping the coast of Santa Cruz, about to embark on a year of solitary wandering. Unfettered by logic or time, she draws us into her private wonderland with no design, yet heeding signs-including a talking sign that looms above her, prodding and sparring like the Cheshire Cat. In February, a surreal lunar year begins, bringing with it unexpected turns, heightened mischief, and inescapable sorrow. In a stranger's words, "Anything is possible: after all, it's the Year of the Monkey." For Smith-inveterately curious, always exploring, tracking thoughts, writing-the year evolves as one of reckoning with the changes in life's gyre: with loss, aging, and a dramatic shift in the political landscape of America. Smith melds the western landscape with her own dreamscape. Taking us from California to the Arizona desert; to a…

San Francisco: Jossey-Bass, 2013. First edition. hardcover. A fine copy in dust jacket. This copy is inscribed on the front endpaper. A behind-the-scenes look at the firm behind WordPress and the unique work culture that contributes to its phenomenal success 50 million websites, or twenty percent of the entire web, use WordPress software. The force behind WordPress is a convention-defying company called Automattic, Inc., whose 120 employees work from anywhere in the world they wish, barely use email, and launch improvements to their products dozens of times a day. With a fraction of the resources of Google, Amazon, or Facebook, they have a similar impact on the future of the Internet. How is this possible? What is different about how they work and what can other companies learn from their methods? To find out, former Microsoft veteran Scott Berkun worked as a manager at WordPress, leading a team of young programmers developing new ideas. The Year Without Pants shares the secrets of WordPress…

Description:
New York: Little, Brown & Co, 2017. First edition. Hardcover. A near fine copy in a near fine dust jacket. Signed by Alexie on a sheet tipped in by the publisher. Family relationships are never simple. But Sherman Alexie's bond with his mother, Lillian, was more complex than most. She plunged her family into chaos with a drinking habit but shed her addiction when it was on the brink of costing her everything. She survived a violent past but created an elaborate facade to hide the truth. She selflessly cared for strangers but was often incapable of showering her children with the affection they so desperately craved. She wanted a better life for her son, but it was only by leaving her behind that he could hope to achieve it. It's these contraditions that made Lillian Alexie a beautiful, mercurial, abusive, intelligent, complex, and very human woman. 457 pages.

Description:
New York: Scribner, 2022. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. When John Edgar Wideman won the PEN/Malamud Award for Excellence in the Short Story, he joined a list of esteemed writers, from Eudora Welty to George Saunders, who are acknowledged masters of the short story. Here he gathers a representative selection from his career, stories that challenge what defines, separates, and unites us, and, to quote Wideman, seek to "deconstruct the given formulas of African American culture and life." His stories are grounded in the streets and the people of Homewood, the Pittsburgh neighborhood of his childhood, but they range far beyond there, to the small western towns of Wyoming and to historic Philadelphia, the contemporary world, and the ancient past.

Description:
New York: Doubleday, 1978. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy, but for sunning to spine. Raphael Soyer. 4to. One of 300 numbered copies, specially bound, and signed by the author. With a numbered color print signed by Raphael Soyer. This is copy #141. As a young man in 1930s Warsaw, Singer lived inconspicuously on the edge of a successful brother's literary circle, tormented by philosophical doubts and youthful skepticisms, involved with a much-older mistress (a typical Singer grotesque) and on intimate terms with other, equally obsessed women. Unlike the garrulous know-it-alls at the Writers Club, he had no conversational case, no political affiliation, and classic insecurities. Singer was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in the same year this book was published. This is the second volume of Singer's autobiography. Bound in blue cloth with the original publisher's slipcase, with cover label.

Gavin late in the war, and her many lovers and affairs. Gellhorn's life, reportage, fiction and correspondence reveal her passionate advocacy of social justice and her need to tell the stories of "the people who were the sufferers of history." Renewed interest in her life makes this collection, packed with newly discovered letters and pictures, fascinating…
