Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glorious Days and Nights is a personal account of the fifty-year career of jazz photographer Herb Snitzer, with a special focus on his years in New York City from 1957 to 1964. A photojournalist for Life, Look, and Fortune, Snitzer was the photo editor and later associate editor of the influential jazz magazine Metronome. During the 1960s, politics, race, and social strife and unrest swirled in Snitzer's life as a working artist. But throughout the bus boycotts, demonstrations, civil and racial unrest, what remained constant for him was jazz. Snitzer recalls what it was like to go on the road with these musicians. His reflections run the gamut from serious meditations on his development as a young photographer working with musicians already of great stature to more conversational recollections of casual moments spent having fun with the jazz artists many of whom became close friends. This book includes Snitzer's very best jazz photographs. He reveals the essences of the artists, their struggles, joys, and pains. A number of Snitzer's jazz images have become iconic, including Louis Armstrong with the Star of David, Lester Young at The Five Spot Café in New York City, John Coltrane reflected in a mirror, Thelonious Monk with piano keys reflected in his sunglasses, and Miles Davis at Newport. With eighty-five black-and-white images of jazz giants, Glorious Days and Nights provides a long-awaited testimony to the friendships and artistry that Snitzer developed over his remarkable career.

Book excerpt: Everything about forty-four-year-old Renee Strazio's life is perfect. Just a little too perfect. Manicured, pampered, and pedigreed, she has a wealthy, successful, and attractive husband and a son who makes her proud. She is the envy of her friends and neighbors, but only she knows it's all a glittery façade. Despite the many comforts, benefits, and privileges of her luxurious life, she is not-so-quietly unsatisfied with it all. This shallow perfection becomes blatantly apparent when she takes a cruise with her husband and son. Inspired by the raw beauty of the sea and the islands, she finds herself questioning many of the choices she has made that have brought her to this point. Bored and frustrated, she wonders if she has even chosen the right partner in this life. At the core of her struggle lies a burning desire to live life on her own terms. Despite the risk, Renee sets out to find herself. When her longing for the deep, intimate connection her husband could never fulfill drives her to satiate her curiosity with the ship's female masseuse, Priti, Renee is reawakened. In Priti's arms, on that one glorious day, Renee discovers a passion unlike any she's ever known. The experience recharges her sexual and spiritual intensity. The luxury cruise becomes a journey of discovery and disclosure that could potentially give Renee more than she had ever imagined--a life of her own.
