Why Men Are Suspicious of Yoga
We live in a world where smart fridges are more articulate than most politicians, where the leaders of two nuclear powers engage in a battle of elementary school wits, and where every fact can be dismissed as fake news. Sometimes it seems like the only humor left is tinged with bitterness and despair. Robert Isenberg doesn't believe that's true. He knows it's possible to find humor-true humor-everywhere. Why is it that a politician's choice of food makes or breaks his or her career, and why should we care? How important is it to attend a funeral if it means canceling your regular Sunday tennis game? What drives a man's suspicions of yoga, and perhaps more importantly, why are wives so determ...

The Green Season
A dynamic collection of essays and reportage, The Green Season illustrates daily life in Costa Rica, a tiny Central American nation dedicated to peace and teeming with tropical life. With his trademark humor and observation, Robert Isenberg describes the people, culture, and biodiversity that make Costa Rica so unique-from a centuries-old indigenous ceremony to a remote jungle crisscrossed by crocodile-filled canals. Isenberg explores the country head-on, fighting his way through San Jose traffic, mingling with venomous snakes, and even making a cameo in an epic soccer film at the height of World Cup fever. Richly detailed and tenderly written, The Green Season is one expat's love letter to his adoptive homeland."
Edgar G. Ulmer
Edgar G. Ulmer is perhaps best known today for Detour, considered by many to be the epitome of a certain noir style that transcends its B-list origins. But in his lifetime he never achieved the celebrity of his fellow Austrian and German émigré directors--Billy Wilder, Otto Preminger, Fred Zinnemann, and Robert Siodmak. Despite early work with Max Reinhardt and F. W. Murnau, his auspicious debut with Siodmak on their celebrated Weimar classic People on Sunday, and the success of films like Detour and Ruthless, Ulmer spent most of his career as an itinerant filmmaker earning modest paychecks for films that have either been overlooked or forgotten. In this fascinating and well-researched acc...

The Iron Mountain
In 1226, a young German noble plotted the unthinkable: to kidnap the Archbishop of Cologne. What followed was a cavalcade of murder, exile, torture and vengeance. The noble was named Friedrich von Isenberg.Eight centuries later, Robert Isenberg traveled to Germany to explore Friedrich's legacy. Picking through the ruins of Castle Isenberg and surveying scant documentation, he began to assemble Friedrich's tragic tale. Part travelogue, part historical mystery, The Iron Mountain explores the bloody landscape of medieval Europe and its ghostly echoes in a small German town.
