Universal and timeless, Delia Ephron's How to Eat Like a Child is a delightful revisiting of the joys -- and tricky ploys -- of childhood. Made into a children's television special and a musical theater revue performed across the country each year, How to Eat Like a Child offers advice beyond the artful etiquette of food consumption. Ephron also teaches us "How to Laugh Hysterically," "How to Have a Birthday Party," "How to Torture Your Sister," and much, much more. As the Washington Post Book World noted, "After the giggles of recognition have subsided, one thing will be very clear: all adults are kids in grown-ups' clothing."

Writings from the first 25 years of Buchwald's career, while based in Paris and later in Washington DC.

In the grand satirical tradition of Swift, Rabelais, and Twain comes...Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot, and Other Observations...a scathing--but uncompromisingly fair--look at America's largest talk show host and the rest of the Republican right.  Penned by the Emmy award-winning Saturday Night Live writer whom John Podhoretz of the New York Post has called "the man responsible for some of the most brilliant political satire of our time," Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot tackles the issues--and the politicians--in ways few have dared...        Exploding Medicare Costs: "Why not shoot the elderly into space?  Stay with me.  Because I'm not just thinking about the budget here.  I'm talking about science.  Just think how many more manned space operations NASA could undertake if they didn't have to worry about getting the astronauts back."      Crime: "I have a radical gun-buyback idea that I guarantee would be a huge success.  Here's how it works: hand in a gun, get a free vial of crack."      Newt Gingrich: "Many of us, like Newt, have acknowledged smoking dope and reading Toffler in the early 70s.  But after reading his book, I think Newt's dirty little secret is that he smoked dope and watched The Jetsons."   Phil Gramm: "If you get beyond the fact the Gramm is ugly, mean, hypocritical, has a boob fetish, and drives his wife like a mule, he does have a certain folksy charm."On the subject of Rush Limbaugh, Franken lets the facts speak for themselves. Listen to Rush, the "rugged individualist" and enemy of government handouts, explain how his second wife made him stop sitting around the house eating just food and go file for unemployment insurance.  And learn all of Rush's several explanations for how he avoided the draft.       Of course, when it comes to draft-dodging Republicans, Rush isn't alone. Reading Al's Vietnam short story, "Operation Chickenhawk," you'll savor the exploits of Privates Limbaugh, Gramm, Quayle, Buchanan, Gingrich, and George Will as Lieutenant Oliver North leads them kicking and screaming into combat.     And don't miss Al's informative discussion with the man who has "the easiest job in America": Rush Limbaugh's fact-checker.  And much, much more.

From Publishers Weekly In his most gripping, most hallucinogenic thriller to date, the author of Ghost Story and Shadowland takes us on a dizzying spin through those eerie psychic badlands where nightmare and insanity seem to fuse with reality. It's 15 years after the Vietnam War and a string of murders in Southeast Asia convinces four veterans of the same Vietnam platoonone now a doctor, another a writerthat the murderer, whose trademarks are mutilation and a playing card with ``Koko'' scrawled on it, was also a member of the platoon. They resolve to find him, for purposes of their own, before the police do. Led by the platoon's one-time lieutenant, who has a cold-blooded killing of villagers on his record, they follow Koko's trail to the sleazy bars and sinister dives of Singapore and Bangkok, and finally to New York where one of them becomes his latest victim. A probe into the killer's grim childhood yields his true identity, as well as his genesis as a psychopath, but in a thrilling climax, the now-you-see-me, now-you-don't Koko proves just how wily he is. The characters are realistic and complex, and the story continues to resonate in the mind long after the final page is turned.

The rock star Vampire Lestat prepares for a concert in San Francisco, unaware that hundreds of vampires will be among the fans that night and that they are committed to destroying him for risking exposing them all. The sleep of a group of men and women, vampires and mortals, around the world is disturbed by a mysterious dream of red-haired twins who suffer an unspeakable tragedy.

As these three threads wind seamlessly together, the origins and culture of vampires are revealed, as is the length and breadth of their effect on the mortal world.

A Mischievous Charade... Harriet, Duchess of Berrow, is tired of her title and the responsibilities that come along with it.

But to attend such an event -- especially if the event in question is Lord Justinian Strange's rollicking fete, filled with noble rogues and rotters, risque ladies and illicit lovers -- would be certain scandal. That's why she must disguise herself...

As a viscount's daughter, vivacious Coralee Whitmore is perfectly placed to write about London's elite in the outspoken ladies gazette, Heart to Heart. But beneath her fashionable exterior beats the heart of a serious journalist. So when her sister's death is dismissed as a suicide, Corrie vows to uncover the truth, suspecting the notorious Earl of Tremaine was Laurel's lover and the father of her illegitimate child. Corrie infiltrates Castle Tremaine posing as a wide-eyed country relation whose charming figure -- and reduced circumstances -- make her irresistible to the confirmed scoundrel. But Corrie finds the earl is not all he seems... nor is she immune to his charms, however much she despises his caddish ways. Far from a society column, Corrie's life soon reads more like one of Mr. Dicken's serials. But the danger of her ruse is hardly fictional: someone is bent on ensuring Corrie's questions go unanswered -- and unasked.

When it comes to love, a lady should always listen to her mother... A LADY WITH A FORTUNE Althea Markham is a young woman with responsibilities, not the least of which is providing her family with a male heir.  Of course, that would entail marrying, and for a lady too proud to entertain a sparse collection of gold-diggers and rogues, the prospects are exceedingly dim.  Even as she shoulders the burdens of being an unattached countess, Althea must keep a close eye on her freewheeling French mother, who tends to act more the debutante than the dowager.  It seems she's been meeting at midnight with a mysterious man -- and Althea is determined to get to the bottom of his intentions -- whoever he is....   A GENTLEMAN WITH A MISSION Recently jilted and weary of living in his older brother's shadow, John Ridley is ready for a distraction.  And what a distraction he gets when he engages in a game of espionage against the French.  Posing as a smuggler, John's main contact is a lady by the name of Celeste Markham.  But while Celeste is the portrait of glittering charm, it is her protective daughter Althea who captures John's attention.  His determination to avoid affairs of love soon gives way to the realization that his feelings for Althea extend beyond affairs of state.  Now, John must convince her that he is more than a spy, and more than worthy to safeguard her future -- and her heart.
