Description: Celebrating the legacy of Vladimir Nabokov at the 20th Century Masters Tribute Series, James Mason open the PEN America event by reading the iconic opening lines of Lolita.

This brand-new unabridged audio book of The Fellowship of the Ring, the first part of J. R. R. Tolkien’s epic adventure, The Lord of the Rings, is read by the BAFTA award-winning actor, director and author, Andy Serkis. 

 In a sleepy village in the Shire, a young hobbit is entrusted with an immense task. He must make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ruling Ring of Power – the only thing that prevents the Dark Lord Sauron’s evil dominion.

Thus begins J. R. R. Tolkien’s classic tale of adventure, which continues in The Two Towers and The Return of the King.

Blues Supremacy

Experience the beauty of romance in this charmingly illustrated book showcasing true stories of true love, in all its magnificence and mess.

From The New Yorker contributor and @drawingolive Instagrammer Olivia de Recat comes a heartwarming look at love, in its many forms. Drawing on interviews with "the best couples she knows"—young and old, from all walks of life—de Recat explores the question: what makes love work? But instead of trying to solve the puzzle of all relationships, ever, Drawn Together simply reflects the world back to itself, with stories of love and belonging, from pet names, to first date anxieties, to the enduring tales of life-long partnership. 

Throughout, Olivia gracefully weaves in her own experiences, exploring how sometimes finding love can mean learning to embrace yourself. A perfect gift for a partner, a couple celebrating an anniversary, or a friend who just went through a break up, Drawn Together is a hopeful, humorous, entertaining book that will inspire even the shiest among us to take a chance on love.

Available July 5, 2022 from Hachette Audio as a digital download, and in Print and Ebook from Voracious.

A convict with a thirst for revenge. A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager. A runaway with a privileged past. A spy known as the Wraith. A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes. Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist.

As part of the group show titled, "real things about real things"
at American Medium Gallery, Brooklyn, NY
"The World is Yours" is a kinetically controlled quadraphonic sound installation. 

"A collaborative work by sound engineer Paul Remund and writer Brian Wallace, the piece acts as a narrative layered on top of the exhibition. This work, though aware of the exhibition of which it is a part, is also outside and on top of it; the sound travels across speakers and similarly slides in and out of conscious thought as viewers move through the gallery".
