A powerful novel about friendship, basketball, and one teen's mission to create a better life for his family. Written in the tradition of Jason Reynolds, Matt de la Pe a, and Walter Dean Myers, After the Shot Drops now has three starred reviews * "Belongs on the shelf alongside contemporary heavy-hitters like Angie Thomas's The Hate U Give, Brendan Kiely and Jason Reynolds's All-American Boys, and Nic Stone's Dear Martin."--School Library Journal, starred review Bunny and Nasir have been best friends forever, but when Bunny accepts an athletic scholarship across town, Nasir feels betrayed. While Bunny tries to fit in with his new, privileged peers, Nasir spends more time with his cousin, Wallace, who is being evicted. Nasir can't help but wonder why the neighborhood is falling over itself to help Bunny when Wallace is in trouble. When Wallace makes a bet against Bunny, Nasir is faced with an impossible decision--maybe a dangerous one. Told from alternating perspectives, After the Shot Drops is a heart-pounding story about the responsibilities of great talent and the importance of compassion.

A witty, candid, sharply written memoir by the cofounder of Steely Dan In his entertaining debut as an author, Donald Fagen—musician, songwriter, and cofounder of Steely Dan—reveals the cultural figures and currents that shaped his artistic sensibility, as well as offering a look at his college days and a hilarious account of life on the road. Fagen presents the “eminent hipsters” who spoke to him as he was growing up in a bland New Jersey suburb in the early 1960s; his colorful, mind-expanding years at Bard College, where he first met his musical partner Walter Becker; and the agonies and ecstasies of a recent cross-country tour with Michael McDonald and Boz Scaggs. Acclaimed for his literate lyrics and complex arrangements as a musician, Fagen here proves himself a sophisticated writer with his own distinctive voice.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A coming-of-age classic about a young girl growing up in Chicago • Acclaimed by critics, beloved by readers of all ages, taught in schools and universities alike, and translated around the world—from the winner of the 2019 PEN/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature. “Cisneros draws on her rich [Latino] heritage...and seduces with precise, spare prose, creat[ing] unforgettable characters we want to lift off the page. She is not only a gifted writer, but an absolutely essential one.” —The New York Times Book Review The House on Mango Street is one of the most cherished novels of the last fifty years. Readers from all walks of life have fallen for the voice of Esperanza Cordero, growing up in Chicago and inventing for herself who and what she will become. “In English my name means hope,” she says. “In Spanish it means too many letters. It means sadness, it means waiting." Told in a series of vignettes—sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes joyous—Cisneros’s masterpiece is a classic story of childhood and self-discovery and one of the greatest neighborhood novels of all time. Like Sinclair Lewis’s Main Street or Toni Morrison’s Sula, it makes a world through people and their voices, and it does so in language that is poetic and direct. This gorgeous coming-of-age novel is a celebration of the power of telling one’s story and of being proud of where you're from.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK

Dominika Wrozynski’s American Accent is a gorgeous discovery of riches, personal in its moving narratives of love and loss, cosmopolitan in sensibility and range. An opening sequence that explores inherited trauma (Wrozynski’s Polish mother was maimed during WWII) is riveting, and as a whole, the volume adroitly balances the darker moments (the veteran who cannot forget the “charred bodies” he saw in Kuwait) with the wondrous (Patrick Swayze in New Mexico in a balloon!). American Accent comprises a work of lyric witness in poetry redolent with humane truths and beauty. That’s all you need to know. –Cynthia Hogue, author of In June the Labyrinth What makes us Americans? Dominika Wrozynski's poems say Everything! She has traveled from Poland to Seattle to New Mexico to Las Vegas to Florida, seen movie stars and felt the heat of deserts and swamps. These poems are full of wasp stings and hornets, Polish vodka, and everyday worship of the luminous ordinary and a paean to the "howling, slobbering parts" of her heart. Not only does she dive deep into her own being but she tells us what it means to live in this country with its crazy rhythms. A glorious debut. –Barbara Hamby, author of Bird Odyssey The poems in this breathtaking debut collection ricochet from the startling (the poet’s Polish mother has only one arm, “the other shot away by a German soldier / during World War II”) to the tedious (stalled cars, bad dogs, worse jobs). All of America is here, and we see it all bathed in love’s abundance, the great and the terrible celebrated equally. For it is everything—the good, the bad, the ho-hum—that gives us our lives, this poet, these marvelous poems. –David Kirby, author of Get Up, Please
