04.07: Motorcycles I've Loved
2015-03-18 19:04:47| Powells Books Events Calendar
At 21 years old, Lily Brooks-Dalton is feeling completely lost. Returning to New England after three years traveling the world, she finds herself without the direction or the drive to move forward. When a friend starts talking about buying a motorcycle, Brooks-Dalton is intrigued, and before long she is diving headlong into the world of gearheads, channeling all her energy into a quest for the perfect ride. At first, her passion for these powerful machines is a diversion, but what she finds riding and maintaining her own motorcycles is the momentum she had been seeking all along. Honest and lyrical, raw and thoughtful, Motorcycles I've Loved (Riverhead) is a bold portrait of one young woman's empowering journey toward confidence, independence, and her own wide-open road.

04.07: Walter Kirn
2014-03-18 00:36:11| Powells Books Events Calendar
In the summer of 1998, Walter Kirn set out on a peculiar, fateful errand: to personally deliver a crippled hunting dog from his home in Montana to the New York apartment of one Clark Rockefeller, a secretive young banker and art collector who had adopted the dog over the Internet. Thus began a 15-year relationship that drew Kirn deep into the fun-house world of an outlandish, eccentric son of privilege who ultimately would be unmasked as a brazen serial impostor, child kidnapper, and brutal murderer. Combining confessional memoir, true crime reporting, and cultural speculation, Blood Will Out (Liveright) is a Dreiser-esque tale of self-invention, upward mobility, and intellectual arrogance.
