Lasciato dalla fidanzata e licenziato nello stesso giorno, Alberto, giovane chef romano, si ritrova a dover reinventare la sua vita da zero. Proprio nel momento in cui aveva deciso di andare a vivere da solo, allontanandosi da una madre che per lungo tempo era stato il suo unico punto di riferimento. Un ruolo che lei – Laura, come spesso Alberto la chiama, evitando il più affettuoso “mamma” – aveva ricoperto con qualche difficoltà, persa tra un amore passeggero e una sessione di meditazione. Quando, poche settimane dopo, anche lei viene improvvisamente a mancare, il giovane sprofonda in un abisso di rabbia e di cose non dette. Messo in valigia ciò che Laura gli ha lasciato in eredità – la sua cartella clinica, un mattarello e una confezione di Zaleplon – decide di partire per Los Angeles alla ricerca di suo padre, di cui possiede poche e frammentarie notizie, elargite con qualche incertezza da Margherita, l’amica con cui sua madre aveva condiviso gli anni spensierati della giovinezza. Così, poco a poco, mentre ricostruisce con fatica i contorni di una figura paterna per troppo tempo esistita solo nella sua immaginazione, una nuova consapevolezza si fa strada nella sua mente e perfino l’obiettivo di una vita – la ricerca della ricetta perfetta – si rivela all’improvviso, come un’epifania. Sullo sfondo della città simbolo del sogno americano, che non manca tuttavia di mostrare il suo lato più oscuro e bizzarro, Perso a Los Angeles è un viaggio straordinario alla ricerca di se stessi, un romanzo di formazione che ha come obiettivo ultimo la conquista della felicità.

2020 Miriam Matthews Ethnic History Award from the Los Angeles City Historical Society As Southern California was reimagining leisure and positioning it at the center of the American Dream, African American Californians were working to make that leisure an open, inclusive reality. By occupying recreational sites and public spaces, African Americans challenged racial hierarchies and marked a space of Black identity on the regional landscape and social space. In Living the California Dream Alison Rose Jefferson examines how African Americans pioneered America’s “frontier of leisure” by creating communities and business projects in conjunction with their growing population in Southern California during the nation’s Jim Crow era. By presenting stories of Southern California African American oceanfront and inland leisure destinations that flourished from 1910 to the 1960s, Jefferson illustrates how these places helped create leisure production, purposes, and societal encounters. Black communal practices and economic development around leisure helped define the practice and meaning of leisure for the region and the nation, confronted the emergent power politics of recreational space, and set the stage for the sites as places for remembrance of invention and public contest. Living the California Dream presents the overlooked local stories that are foundational to the national narrative of mass movement to open recreational accommodations to all Americans and to the long freedom rights struggle.

A LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER. NAMED A BEST CALIFORNIA BOOKS OF 2021 BY THE NEW YORK TIMES A provocative, exhilaratingly new understanding of the United States’ most confounding metropolis—not just a great city, but a full-blown modern city-state America is obsessed with Los Angeles. And America has been thinking about Los Angeles all wrong, for decades, on repeat. Los Angeles is not just the place where the American dream hits the Pacific. (It has its own dreams.) Not just the vanishing point of America’s western drive. (It has its own compass.) Functionally, aesthetically, mythologically, even technologically, an independent territory, defined less by distinct borders than by an aura of autonomy and a sense of unfurling destiny—this is the city-state of Los Angeles. Deeply reported and researched, provocatively argued, and eloquently written, Rosecrans Baldwin's Everything Now approaches the metropolis from unexpected angles, nimbly interleaving his own voice with a chorus of others, from canonical L.A. literature to everyday citizens. Here, Octavia E. Butler and Joan Didion are in conversation with activists and astronauts, vampires and veterans. Baldwin records the stories of countless Angelenos, discovering people both upended and reborn: by disasters natural and economic, following gospels of wealth or self-help or personal destiny. The result is a story of a kaleidoscopic, vibrant nation unto itself—vastly more than its many, many parts. Baldwin’s concept of the city-state allows us, finally, to grasp a place—Los Angeles—whose idiosyncrasies both magnify those of America, and are so fully its own. Here, space and time don’t quite work the same as they do elsewhere, and contradictions are as stark as southern California’s natural environment. Perhaps no better place exists to watch the United States’s past, and its possible futures, play themselves out. Welcome to Los Angeles, the Great American City-State.
