Being a celebrity publicist at a Los Angeles PR firm isn’t the glamour job Alex Davidson thought it would be. Her love life is zilch, her newest client—an actor fresh out of rehab—keeps hitting on her, and all she has in her refrigerator is a half-empty bottle of Pinot Grigio. But her wisecracking gay assistant and her spark plug of a best friend give her reasons for crawling out of bed in the morning (well, most of the time). Everything changes the day her firm is bought out by a rival agency and Alex finds her once secure job of wanly ministering to a roster of B-list celebrities suddenly at stake. It looks like Suzanne, Alex’s old boss and mentor, is being shown the door. And G, her new boss, wants bigger clients and more exposure. But certain things just don’t add up: Why did G refuse to help Suzanne when a big client—a hot Latina singer/actress hell-bent on world domination—decided to bolt from the firm? And why is he being so nice to Alex all of a sudden? Knowing that in Hollywood there are always strings attached, Alex does a little digging and uncovers a dirty scheme that, if brought to light, will rock the entertainment industry. Will the temptation to betray Suzanne and accept a lucrative offer from G be too powerful for Alex to ignore? Or can she save her job, keep her soul, and score a victory for women in Hollywood? So 5 Minutes Ago is a laugh-out-loud novel about one young woman’s attempt to make it in the shark-infested waters of Hollywood. Set in the sun-drenched L.A. of celebrity-magazine photo shoots, velvet-roped VIP parties, and red-carpet events, Hilary de Vries’s debut novel takes us on a wildly entertaining romp with enough juicy behind-the-scenes action to satisfy even the most insatiable celebraholic.

From the same series that produced the classic and beloved novel, Call of the Wild, Jack London’s Jerry of the Islands accompanies the other Jack London stories that portray dog protagonists. Born on the Santa Isabelle Island, Jerry, an Irish terrier, belongs to a slave owner named Mr. Haggin. On the plantation, Jerry is responsible for chasing the slaves, as ordered by Mr. Haggin. He is content on the plantation, but when Captain Van Horn comes into town, Mr. Haggin gives Jerry to him to accompany him on his ship. Especially fond of Captain Van Horn, Jerry is happy to join the sailing endeavor. However, when the ship is attacked, tragedy strikes, and Jerry is thrown into the sea. After being saved by a native boy and brought to a village, Jerry recovers from the attack and begins a new life there. When the village chief takes a special interest in him, Jerry is given a special status, protecting him from harm. But, when Agno, a local sorcerer, reveals his gruesome plans for Jerry, his new home is threatened once again. Facing high stakes of sacrifice and losing a home, Jerry must fight for his safety to survive on the Solomon Islands. With a setting inspired by Jack London’s own travels, Jerry of the Islandsemploys rich description that allows readers to feel as if they are a part of the story. With the unique dog protagonist, Jerry of the Islands is charming and offbeat, providing a fresh and interesting perspective on the colonial south Pacific. Through the observations and thoughts of a dog with many owners, London’s novel convincingly portrays the projected racism that is able to be trained into pets. Under a new and modern cultural lens, readers are able to recognize these inadvertent themes and compare them to contemporary society. Now presented with a stunning new cover and reprinted in an easy-to-read font, this edition of Jerry of the Islands by Jack London is both modern and accessible, perfect for readers in search of an adventure with a unique perspective.

“Jack and the Beanstalk,” “Little Jack Horner,” and “Jack the Giant Killer” are all famous tales and rhymes featuring the same hero, a character who often appears in legends, fairy tales, and nursery rhymes. Unlike moralizing fairy tale heroes, however, Jack is typically depicted as foolish or lazy, though he often emerges triumphant through cleverness and tricks. With their roots traced back to England, Jack tales are an important oral tradition in Appalachian folklore. It was in his Appalachian upbringing that Kevin D. Cordi was first introduced to Jack through oral storytelling traditions. Cordi’s love of storytelling eventually led him down a career path as a professional storyteller, touring the US for the past twenty-seven years. In addition to his work as a storyteller, Cordi worked a second job in an unrelated field—a high school teacher—and for many years, he kept his two lives separate. Everything changed when Cordi began telling stories in the classroom and realized he was connecting with his students in ways he had not previously. Cordi concluded that storytelling, storymaking, and drama can be used as systems of learning instead of as just entertainment. In You Don’t Know Jack: A Storyteller Goes to School, Cordi describes the process of integrating storytelling into his classroom. Using autoethnographic writing, he reflects upon the use of storytelling and storymaking in order to promote inquiry and learning. He argues that engaging with the stories of others, discovering that one voice or identity should not be valued over the other, and listening, especially listening to stories of difference, are of utmost importance to education and growth.

Don Carpenter wrote about Hollywood like no one else. Hollywood Trilogy collects, for the first time, Carpenter's most significant Hollywood novels—A Couple of Comedians, The Turnaround and The True Life Story of Jody McKeegan—into a single volume. Here readers will find the jungle of "B" movie Hollywood with no attempt to dress up the rawness and vulgarity of this "glamorous" town. Carpenter's characters occupy every facet of Hollywood—there are naïve and shy young men trying to break into the business, one–picture wonders, comedy duos, beautiful starlets and middle–aged moguls wondering how exactly they got where they are. All are drawn with the wit, pace and above all, the authenticity that were Don Carpenter's trademarks. Following the Spring 2014 publication of Friday at Enrico's, Carpenter's "forgotten" novel, finished and championed by Jonathan Lethem, interest in Carpenter's work is at an all time high. Hollywood Trilogy will introduce readers to an entirely new facet of Carpenter's work, just waiting to be discovered by a contemporary audience.
