When Frank Rich was hired as the new drama critic for the New York Times in 1980, what he found was a far cry from the theater world he had dreamed about during his troubled childhood. Broadway was in crisis, struggling to fill its houses and survive the devastation AIDS would soon wreak upon its people. It was the end of an era, but as Rich discovered, the beginning of something just as important: a second act. Set against a backdrop of opening-night intrigue, smoke-filled newsrooms, and towering figures like Stephen Sondheim, Joe Papp, and David Merrick, PAPERING THE HOUSE is Rich’s bittersweet ode to the theater’s joys and disappointments, and a long overdue reckoning with family, ambition, love, and loss. On sale 4/6/27. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gfcgFByU

National Book Award Finalist WHEN IT ALL BURNS by Jordan Thomas is officially out in paperback! Los Angeles Times steeped praise onto this immersive story of community in the most perilous of circumstances:   “Exceptional. . .   A first-person account would be compelling enough, especially given Thomas’ gift for terse, layered expository writing. But Thomas has more on his mind here.   He alternates sequences of harrowing action and macho team-building with deep dives into the ecology, science, economics and, most important, Indigenous cultural practices related to fire. In Thomas’ hands these subjects are interconnected, and his writing brings new heat to an ubiquitous subject. . .   WHEN IT ALL BURNS is one of those books that immerses the reader in the nuances of a world most of us know only through the lens of tragedy and destruction.   Thomas’ visceral, crystalline prose only adds fuel to the fire.” 🔥   #WhenItAllBurns #Wildfires #Nonfiction #Environment #Nature #Community #NationalBookAward
