Pulitzer Prize–winning literary critic Michiko Kakutani shares 100 personal, thought-provoking essays about books that have mattered to her and that help illuminate the world we live in today—with beautiful illustrations throughout. “A book tailormade for bibliophiles.”—Oprah Winfrey “An ebullient celebration of books and reading.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) In the introduction to her new collection of essays, Ex Libris: 100+ Books to Read and Reread, Michiko Kakutani writes: “In a world riven by political and social divisions, literature can connect people across time zones and zip codes, across cultures and religions, national boundaries and historical eras. It can give us an understanding of lives very different from our own, and a sense of the shared joys and losses of human experience.” Readers will discover novels and memoirs by some of the most gifted writers working today; favorite classics worth reading or rereading; and nonfiction works, both old and new, that illuminate our social and political landscape and some of today’s most pressing issues, from climate change to medicine to the consequences of digital innovation. There are essential works in American history (The Federalist Papers, The Writings and Speeches of Martin Luther King, Jr.); books that address timely cultural dynamics (Elizabeth Kolbert’s The Sixth Extinction, Daniel J. Boorstin’s The Image, Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale); classics of children’s literature (the Harry Potter novels, Where the Wild Things Are); and novels by acclaimed contemporary writers like Don DeLillo, William Gibson, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and Ian McEwan. With richly detailed illustrations by lettering artist Dana Tanamachi that evoke vintage bookplates, Ex Libris is an impassioned reminder of why reading matters more than ever.

An introduction to the rapidly growing category of New Adult (NA) literature, this text provides a roadmap to understanding and introducing NA books to young people in high school, college, libraries, and other settings. As a window into the experiences and unique challenges that young and new adults encounter, New Adult literature intersects with but is distinct from Young Adult literature. This rich resource provides a framework, methods, and plentiful reading recommendations by genre, theme, and discipline on New Adult literature. Starting with a definition of New Adult literature, Kane demonstrates how the inclusion of NA literature helps support and encourage a love of reading. Chapters address important topics that are relevant to young people, including post-high school life, early careers, relationships, activism, and social change. Each chapter features text sets, instructional strategies, writing prompts, and activities to invite and encourage young people to be reflective and engaged in responding to thought-provoking texts. A welcome text for professors of literacy and literature instruction, first-year college instructors, researchers, librarians, and educators, this book provides new ways to assist students as they embark upon the next stage of their lives and is essential reading for courses on teaching literature.

Writing Guide with Handbook aligns to the goals, topics, and objectives of many first-year writing and composition courses. It is organized according to relevant genres, and focuses on the writing process, effective writing practices or strategies—including graphic organizers, writing frames, and word banks to support visual learning—and conventions of usage and style. The text includes an editing and documentation handbook, which provides information on grammar and mechanics, common usage errors, and citation styles. Writing Guide with Handbook breaks down barriers in the field of composition by offering an inviting and inclusive approach to students of all intersectional identities. To meet this goal, the text creates a reciprocal relationship between everyday rhetoric and the evolving world of academia. Writing Guide with Handbook builds on students’ life experiences and their participation in rhetorical communities within the familiar contexts of personal interaction and social media. The text seeks to extend these existing skills by showing students how to construct a variety of compelling compositions in a variety of formats, situations, and contexts. The authors conceived and developed Writing Guide with Handbook in 2020; its content and learning experiences reflect the instructional, societal, and individual challenges students have faced. The authors invite students and instructors to practice invitational discussions even as they engage in verbal and written argument. Instructors will be empowered to emphasize meaning and voice and to teach empathy as a rhetorical strategy. Students will be empowered to negotiate their identities and their cultures through language as they join us in writing, discovering, learning, and creating. This is an adaptation of Writing Guide with Handbook by OpenStax. You can access the textbook as pdf for free at openstax.org. Minor editorial changes were made to ensure a better ebook reading experience. This is an open educational resources (OER) textbook for university and college students.

Лауреат Пулитцеровской премии, влиятельный литературный обозреватель The New York Times Митико Какутани в ярко иллюстрированном сборнике рассказывает о самых важных книгах современности – и объясняет, почему их должен прочесть каждый.Почему книги так важны? Митико Какутани, критик с мировым именем, убеждена: литература способна объединять людей, невзирая на культурные различия, государственные границы и исторические эпохи. Чтение позволяет понять жизнь других, не похожих на нас людей и разделить пережитые ими радости и потери. В «Экслибрисе» Какутани рассказывает о более чем 100 книгах: это и тексты, определившие ее жизнь, и важнейшие произведения современной литературы, и книги, которые позволяют лучше понять мир, в котором мы живем сегодня.В сборнике эссе читатели откроют для себя книги актуальных писателей, вспомнят классику, которую стоит перечитать, а также познакомятся с самыми значимыми научно-популярными трудами, биографиями и мемуарами. Дон Делилло, Элена Ферранте, Уильям Гибсон, Иэн Макьюэн, Владимир Набоков и Хорхе Луис Борхес, научпоп о медицине, политике и цифровой революции, детские и юношеские книги – лишь малая часть того, что содержится в книге.Проиллюстрированная стильными авторскими рисунками, напоминающими старинные экслибрисы, книга поможет сориентироваться в безграничном мире литературы и поможет лучше понимать происходящие в ней процессы. «Экслибрис» – это настоящий подарок для всех, кто любит читать.«Митико Какутани – это мой главный внутренний собеседник: вечно с ней про себя спорю, почти никогда не соглашаюсь, но бесконечно восхищаюсь и чту». – Галина Юзефович, литературный критик«Книга для настоящих библиофилов». – Опра Уинфри«Одухотворенная, сердечная дань уважения книгам и чтению». – Kirkus ReviewВ формате PDF A4 сохранен издательский макет книги.

퓰리처상을 수상한 [뉴욕타임스] 서평가 미치코 가쿠타니의 독자적 본격 서평집 ‘영어권에서 가장 영향력 있는 서평가’라고 불리는 미치코 가쿠타니의 본격 서평집. 100여 권의 책에 관한 간결하고도 핵심을 찌르는 서평이 실려 있다. “비평가보다는 책을 좋아하는 사람”, 즉 독자의 입장에서 선별된 책들은 고전부터 동시대 작가가 쓴 소설, 회고록, 기술·정치·문화 분야 논픽션을 아우르며, 우리가 왜 책을 읽는지 근본적인 이유를 상기시킨다. 이 책을 읽는 것은 책읽기의 기쁨과 중요성을 재확인하는 일이며, 이 서평가가 무엇을 읽고 어떻게 읽는지 ‘서평가의 독서법’을 만나는 일이며, 분열과 고립의 시대를 지나는 방법을 고민하면서 길을 찾는 책들로 지도를 그려내는 일이다. 이빈소연의 독창적인 그림들이 소장 욕구를 자극하며, 서평가 정희진과 금정연이 동료 서평가이자 서평가들의 서평가일 가쿠타니의 책을 함께 읽기를 권하는 추천글을 보탰다.
