DIVA thrilling and irreverent memoir about the transformation of the advertising business from the 1980s to today /divDIV/divDIVRichard Kirshenbaum was born to sell. Raised in a family of Long Island strivers, this future advertising titan was just a few years old when his grandfather first taught him that a Cadillac is more than a car, and that if you can’t have a Trinitron you might as well not watch TV. He had no connections when he came to Madison Avenue, but he possessed an outrageous sense of humor that would make him a millionaire./divDIV /divDIVIn 1987, at the age of twenty-six, Richard put his savings on the line to launch his own agency with partner Jonathan Bond, and within a year, had transformed it from a no-name firm into the go-to house for cutting-edge work.

They were the bad boys of Madison Avenue—a firm where a skateboarding employee once bowled over an important client—but backed up their madness with results./divDIV /divDIVPacked with business insight, marketing wisdom, and a cast of characters ranging from Princess Diana to Ed McMahon, this memoir is as bold, as breathtaking, and as delightful as Richard himself./div

Faringdon House in Oxfordshire was the home of Lord Berners, composer, writer, painter, friend of Stravinsky and Gertrude Stein, a man renowned for his eccentricity – masks, practical jokes, a flock of multi-coloured doves – and his homosexuality. Before the war he made Faringdon an aesthete’s paradise, where exquisite food was served to many of the great minds, beauties and wits of the day. Since the early thirties his companion there was Robert Heber-Percy, twenty-eight years his junior, wildly physical, unscholarly, a hothead who rode naked through the grounds, loved cocktails and nightclubs, and was known to all as the Mad Boy. If the two men made an unlikely couple, at a time when homosexuality was illegal, the addition to the household in 1942 of a pregnant Jennifer Fry, a high society girl known to be ‘fast’, as Robert’s wife was simply astounding. After Victoria was born the marriage soon foundered (Jennifer later married Alan Ross). Berners died in 1950, leaving Robert in charge of Faringdon, aided by a ferocious Austrian housekeeper who strove to keep the same culinary standards in a more austere age. This was the world Sofka Zinovieff, Victoria’s daughter, a typical child of the sixties, first encountered at the age of seventeen. Eight years later, to her astonishment, Robert told her he was leaving her Faringdon House. Her book about Faringdon and its people is marvellously witty and full of insight, bringing to life a vanished world and the almost fantastical people who lived in it.

Colorado Book Award Winner for Literary Fiction: “The colorful characters make this account of the War of 1812 a rollicking page-turner” (Publishers Weekly). In the early nineteenth century, young Henry Phipps is on a quest to realize his dying mother’s last wish: to be buried at sea, surrounded by her family. Not an easy task considering Henry’s ne’er-do-well father is in debtors’ prison and his comically earnest older brother is busy fighting the redcoats on the battlefields of Maryland. But Henry’s stubborn determination knows no bounds. As he dodges the cannon fire of clashing armies and picks among the ruins of a burning capital, he meets looters, British defectors, renegade slaves, a pregnant maiden in distress, and scoundrels of all types. Mad Boy is at once an antic adventure and a thoroughly convincing work of historical fiction that recreates a young nation’s first truly international conflict and a key moment in the history of the emancipation of African American slaves. Entertaining, atmospheric, and touching, it is “a wartime coming-of-age story filled with nonstop action and genuine pathos” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). “This brilliant musket blast of a novel—in which the lucky reader will encounter falling cows, repurposed pickle barrels, fascinating schemes and fabulous schemers—is alive with humor, heat and heart. Mad Boy is a tremendous accomplishment. Nick Arvin is the real thing.” —Laird Hunt, author of Neverhome

Answer By Fire begins approximately fifteen years into the future and Miguel Longfire, an admired European politician, is assassinated. He is a perfect specimen for the new techno-neurological procedure known as Critical Biogenetronics Reclamation. The procedure has been performed on other specially selected candidates, but without success. LongFire is the first one on whom the operation took hold. His revival, and acquired brilliance, astonishes the watching world. Daniel Samson, a successful middle-aged editor at the Universal Times, loses his family along with a baffling mass disappearance of people. The remaining world population, including Daniel and many of his colleagues at the Times, is horrified. Daniel is determined to unravel the mystery, which has become known as The Event, as well as find his family: Betty Ann, Todd and Barbie. For many years Betty Ann had warned Daniel of this very time: the time the Scriptures call The Time of Jacobs Trouble. In his desperation, Daniel finds a message in Betty Anns Biblesomething he has never readand it gives him the direction he needs. Daniel and Adamm Oakes, colleagues at the Universal Times news machine, draw swords in the third chapter and never put them down. Adamms father, a small town preacher, has taken his own life and Adamm believes Daniel is responsible. Miguel Longfire (the new president) acquires the manysided Universal Times, now the most dominant news machine in existence, and promotes Adamm to manage the entire operation. As a result, Daniel is driven from his comfortable Pennsylvania lifestyle. He is forced across the entire country to the back streets of Los Angeles where he survives in exile with other refugees. In this three-dimensional story, the never-changing world of prophecy collides with the ever-changing world of advanced technology. Daniel and Adamm struggle in and out of both worlds stealthily and perilously. Adamm now has access to an array of high tech devices. He uses Madboy, a laser firing satellite, to lionize Miguel Longfire and pursue Daniel, with the intention of bringing him to an endrevenge for his fathers death. Daniel and his renegade group, struggle to escape the high tech threats of Adamm Oaks and his team of technicians. They work their way through the back streets of Los Angeles, surviving on whatever they can acquire from supermarket dump bins and from the fallen fruit of trees. Periodically, Biblical characters make brief appearances to alert Daniel and his group that the Lord is coming on a white horse with white-robed soldiers to reclaim the world. Daniel clings to this hope. Finally, Adamm and his technical team catch up with Daniel and his refugees in the concrete-walled LA River and bring him to an end. But in a mystical exchange Adamm loses his own life. In an ultra-dimensional showdown, Miguel Longfire persuades the worlds remaining armies to join forces with him and prevent the Lord from returning. But the Lord does return, and as he promised, he reclaims the world.

'Among the hottest books of this blazing summer' (Daily Telegraph): a bold, lushly written novel that will compel and disquiet in equal measure A BOOK OF THE YEAR 2018 - CHOSEN BY THE OBSERVER, NEW STATESMAN AND SPECTATOR It is the 1970s and Ralph, an up-and-coming composer, is visiting Edmund Greenslay at his riverside home in Putney to discuss a collaboration. Through the house's colourful rooms and unruly garden flits nine-year-old Daphne – dark, teasing, slippery as mercury, more sprite than boy or girl. From the moment their worlds collide, Ralph is consumed by an obsession to make Daphne his. But Ralph is twenty-five and Daphne is only a child, and even in the bohemian abandon of 1970s London their fast-burgeoning relationship must be kept a secret. It is not until years later that Daphne is forced to confront the truth of her own childhood – and an act of violence that has lain hidden for decades. Putney is a bold, thought-provoking novel about the moral lines we tread, the stories we tell ourselves and the memories that play themselves out again and again, like snatches of song.
