Book excerpt: The Southpaw is a story about coming of age in America by way of the baseball diamond. Lefthander Henry Wiggen, six feet three, a hundred ninety-five pounds, and the greatest pitcher going, grows to manhood in a right-handed world. From his small-town beginnings to the top of the game, Henry finds out how hard it is to please his coach, his girl, and the sports page?and himself, too?all at once. Written in Henry?s own words, this exuberant, funny novel follows his eccentric course from bush league to the World Series. Although Mark Harris loves and writes tellingly about the pleasures of baseball, his primary subject has always been the human condition and the shifts of mortal men and women as they try to understand and survive what life has dealt them. ø This new Bison Books edition celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of The Southpaw. In his introduction to this edition, Mark Harris discusses the genesis of the novel in his own life experience. Also available in Bison Books editions are The Southpaw, It Looked Like For Ever, and A Ticket for a Seamstitch, the other three volumes in the Henry Wiggen series.

Book excerpt: “[A] thriller that reads like a high-speed theme park ride . . . with dark humor so sharp it’ll make you bleed.” —Brian Freeman, New York Times–bestselling author Former Orlando detective Michael Garrity doesn’t have a good track record when it comes to women. With two ex-wives and a teenage daughter he rarely sees, the most significant relationship in his life right now is with the tumor in his head. Terminal cancer is no joke, but Mike is determined to make the best of it. He’s even named the tumor Bob. With Bob literally on his mind at all times, Mike needs a distraction. And he gets one when the most popular member of a platinum-selling boy band goes missing. Finding his daughter’s favorite pop star might just make him her hero—and his reputation desperately needs an upgrade. But his search stirs up blowback from a past case, and the gritty Orlando underworld that Mike thought he had left behind could cut his farewell tour shorter than he ever expected . . . Praise for Head Games “Carl Hiaasen fans will be thrilled to know there’s a new kid on the block. If you liked Basket Case, you’ll flip over Thomas B. Cavanagh’s sardonically and outrageously funny lead character, who will rope you in on page one and take you on a wild ride.” —Charlotte Hughes, New York Times–bestselling author “A next generation hard-boiled detective novel with a Travis McGee–styled hero whose sidekick is a brain-tumor named Bob.” —N. M. Kelby, author of White Truffles in Winter “Carl Hiaasen and Donald Westlake readers will enjoy Cavanagh’s debut, which crackles with cranky commentary on one man’s cranial state of affairs.” —Booklist

This book was released on 2023-11-26 with total page 4812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Works of Jack London: Novels, Short Stories, Poems, Plays, Memoirs & Essays is a comprehensive collection that showcases the diverse talents of the iconic American author. Jack London's works, known for their naturalistic themes and vivid storytelling, capture the essence of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This collection includes his well-known novels like 'The Call of the Wild' and 'White Fang', as well as his lesser-known essays and plays, providing readers with a complete picture of London's literary genius. London's writing style is engaging and thought-provoking, offering insights into the human condition and the wild beauty of nature. His works stand the test of time and continue to inspire readers around the world. Jack London, a prolific writer and adventurer, drew inspiration from his own experiences as a seaman, laborer, and gold prospector. His socialist beliefs and love for the wilderness shaped his writing, leading to the creation of some of the most enduring works in American literature. London's passion for social justice and exploration infuses his writing with a sense of urgency and authenticity. I highly recommend The Works of Jack London to any reader interested in literature that explores the depths of human nature and the untamed beauty of the natural world. London's timeless works continue to resonate with readers of all ages, making this collection a must-read for anyone looking to delve into the mind of one of America's greatest storytellers.
