What would you give to have a daily conversation with a lost soul mate, whether it is a spouse, parent, sibling, relative, child, or best friend? Dr. Liong Tee understood that need when his soul mate passed away. Consider the possibility there have been many signs from your loved one, both big and small, that were right in front of you all the time but you simply failed to recognize them. Have you ever asked yourself why you keep experiencing a familiar smell, a certain shape, a distinctive color, a special flower, or perhaps a favorite animal that appears over and over again, reminding you of your lost loved one? Or did you simply brush those incidents aside, dismissing them as only being a coincidence? Based on his written journals, follow Dr. Tees incredible story of conversations, signs, and messages received from his lost soul mate, Jan, since her passing in June 2008.

In Hollywood, screenwriters are a curse to be borne, and beating up on them is an industry blood sport. But in this ferociously funny and accurate account of life on the Hollywood food chain, it's a screenwriter who gets the last murderous laugh. That may be because the writer is John Gregory Dunne, who has written screenplays, along with novels and non-fiction, for thirty years. In 1988 Dunne and his wife, Joan Didion, were asked to write a screenplay about the dark and complicated life of the late TV anchorwoman Jessica Savitch. Eight years and twenty-seven drafts later, this script was made into the fairy tale "Up Close and Personal" starring Robert Redford and Michelle Pfeiffer. Detailing the meetings, rewrites, fights, firings, and distractions attendant to the making of a single picture, Monster illuminates the process with sagacity and raucous wit.
