Just adapt Edith Wharton already! The Custom of the Country is right there! The Buccaneers hasn't been done since 1995! The House of Mirth was great but it was 22 years ago!

Let’s Get Physical is clear-eyed about assessing the flaws in the fitness movement—its mixed messaging, its propagation of toxic ideals, its longtime exclusion of differently abled women, plus-size women, and particularly women of color.

I really loved Susan Choi's Trust Exercise, which encapsulates how constructing your identity around art can blur the boundaries between reality and fiction. https://t.co/juxBERJM7z

Meltzer’s 2023 book, Glossy, is a rich, gossipy history of the company’s rise...Mostly, the book left me marveling at how selling a business in this environment was as much about selling yourself as any particular product.

Out of stock

The novel, Brookner’s fourth, drew uncharitable responses after it won the Booker Prize in 1984. But there’s fascinating, bracing tension amid the book’s women, each deemed unfit to be anywhere else...
