The narrator, a Vietnamese army captain, is a man of divided loyalties, a half-French, half-Vietnamese communist sleeper agent in America after the end of the Vietnam War. A powerful story of love and friendship, and a gripping espionage novel,The Sympathizer examines the legacy of the Vietnam War in literature, film, and the wars we fight today.

A Memoir

Beautiful. Willful. Charming. Blunt. Grace Coddington’s extraordinary talent and fierce dedication to her work as creative director of Vogue have made her an international icon. Known through much of her career only to those behind the scenes, she might have remained fashion’s best-kept secret were it not for The September Issue, the acclaimed 2009 documentary that turned publicity-averse Grace into a sudden, reluctant celebrity. Grace’s palpable engagement with her work brought a rare insight into the passion that produces many of the magazine’s most memorable shoots. With the witty, forthright voice that has endeared her to her colleagues and peers for more than forty years, Grace now creatively directs the reader through the storied narrative of her life so far. Evoking the time when models had to tote their own bags and props to shoots, Grace describes her early career as a model, working with such world-class photographers as David Bailey and Norman Parkinson, before she stepped behind the camera to become a fashion editor at British Vogue in the late 1960s. Here she began creating the fantasy “travelogues” that would become her trademark. In 1988 she joined American Vogue, where her breathtakingly romantic and imaginative fashion features, a sampling of which appear in this book, have become instant classics. Delightfully underscored by Grace’s pen-and-ink illustrations, Grace will introduce readers to the colorful designers, hairstylists, makeup artists, photographers, models, and celebrities with whom Grace has created her signature images. Grace reveals her private world with equal candor—the car accident that almost derailed her modeling career, her two marriages, the untimely death of her sister, Rosemary, her friendship with Harper’s Bazaar editor-in-chief Liz Tilberis, and her thirty-year romance with Didier Malige. Finally, Grace describes her abiding relationship with Anna Wintour, and the evolving mastery by which she has come to define the height of fashion. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY FINANCIAL TIMES “If Wintour is the Pope . . . Coddington is Michelangelo, trying to paint a fresh version of the Sistine Chapel twelve times a year.”—Time

The Women Who Propelled Us, from Missiles to the Moon to Mars

The riveting true story of the women who launched America into space. In the 1940s and 50s, when the newly minted Jet Propulsion Laboratory needed quick-thinking mathematicians to calculate velocities and plot trajectories, they didn't turn to male graduates. Rather, they recruited an elite group of young women who, with only pencil, paper, and mathematical prowess, transformed rocket design, helped bring about the first American satellites, and made the exploration of the solar system possible. For the first time, Rise of the Rocket Girls tells the stories of these women--known as "human computers"--who broke the boundaries of both gender and science. Based on extensive research and interviews with all the living members of the team, Rise of the Rocket Girls offers a unique perspective on the role of women in science: both where we've been, and the far reaches of space to which we're heading.

How It Was Built - and How It Fell

The sun never set upon the British Empire, its critics liked to say, because God didn't trust the British in the dark.  The joke was a backhanded tribute to the astonishing achievement of the inhabitants of small island kingdom off the European mainland.  Beginning in the 17th century with a few colonial settlements and trading posts clinging like barnacles to alien shores, and expanding dramatically thereafter by occupation and conquest, they created the greatest empire that the world had ever seen.  In its Victorian heyday, when Britannia ruled the waves, it consisted of 58 countries with a population of 400 million.  Covering 14 million square miles, or about a quarter of the earth's surface, it was seven times larger than the territories of Rome at their greatest extent. By then it was a far-flung but loosely-amalgamated assortment of dominions and dependencies that dwarfed its tiny base.  As early as 1810, one writer described it as an "oak planted in a flower-pot". In a book full of telling anecdotes and colourful characters Piers Brendon tells the story of this extraordinary empire, from its adolescence to its maturity to its demise and, with the benefit of hindsight, assesses its pros and cons.

World War I has long been an obsession of Jacques Tardi's. (His very first(rejected) comics story dealt with the subject, as does his most recent work,the two-volume Putain de Guerre.) But It Was the War of theTrenches is Tardi's defining, masterful statement on the subject. Tardi isnot interested in the national politics, the strategies, or the battles: hefocuses on the day to day of the grunts in the trenches, and, with icy,controlled fury and disgust, with sardonic yet deeply sympathetic narration, hebrings that existence alive as no one has before or since. Yet he also delvesdeeply into the underlying causes of the war, the madness, the cynical politicalexploitation of patriotism. And in a final, heartbreaking coda, Tardi grimlyitemizes the ghastly human cost of the war, and lays out the future 20th centuryconflicts, all of which seem to spring from this global burst of insanity.Trenches features some of Tardi's most stunning artwork. Rendered in alush illustrative style, inspired both by abundant photographic documentationand classic American war comics, augmented by a sophisticated, gorgeous use ofCraftint tones, Trenches is somehow simultaneously atypical for theartist and a perfect encapsulation of Tardi's mature style. It is theindisputable centerpiece of Tardi's oeuvre.
