Listen to the Marriage
A riveting drama of marital therapy Gretchen and Steve have been married for a long time. Living in San Francisco, recently separated, with two children and demanding jobs, they’ve started going to a marriage counselor. Unfolding over the course of ten months and taking place entirely in the marriage counselor’s office, John Jay Osborn’s Listen to the Marriage is the story of a fractured couple in a moment of crisis, and of the person who tries to get them to see each other again. A searing look at the obstacles we put in our own way, as well as the forces that drive us apart (and those that bring us together), Listen to the Marriage is a poignant exploration of marriage—heartbreaking and tender.

The Learners
Fresh out of college in the summer of 1961, Happy lands his first job as a graphic designer (okay, art assistant) at a small Connecticut advertising agency populated by a cast of endearing eccentrics. Life for Happy seems to be -- well, happy. But when he's assigned to design a newspaper ad recruiting participants for an experiment in the Yale Psychology Department, Happy can't resist responding to the ad himself. Little does he know that the experience will devastate him, forcing a reexamination of his past, his soul, and the nature of human cruelty -- chiefly, his own. Written in sharp, witty prose and peppered with absorbing ruminations on graphic design, The Learners again shows that Chip Kidd's writing is every bit as original, stunning, and memorable as his celebrated book jackets.
Death Before the Fall

The Man who Owned New York
At thirty-five, Robert Fox, junior partner in the prestigious Wall Street firm Castle and Lovett, has leveled off in his profession, and the place he had worked so obsessively to make for himself suddenly seems far from perfect. He is in love with a beautiful woman who will not marry him, the young associates in the firm are nipping at his heels, and to top it off, more than three million dollars is missing from the estate of one of his most important clients. Fox's search for the missing Sifford millions -- and for his own sanity and happiness -- leads him into a sometimes dangerous exploration of the many factions that lay claim to the immense city where he works. Who really owns New York? The old families, with their town houses, country estates, and great art collections? The new brash entrepreneurs who are "into" real estate development, interior design, and "macho banking"? Or is it the strange sinister characters who hide in the out-of-the-way, darkly lit crevices of the city? The real answers to Fox's questions are as surprising to him as they will be to the many readers of this witty, suspenseful, and telling novel.
