Jeri Laber The Russian Key A Novel

An exciting debut for fans of The Americans and Red Sparrow.

In 1964, at the height of the Cold War, Kate Landau, a young American expert on Russia, joins the CIA.

When her big break comes, she’s recruited to work undercover in New York City, investigating a KGB officer posing as a UN diplomat. Exactly the kind of work she’d hoped for.

When Kate and Max meet up again in New York and inevitably resume their love affair, it is passionate, but fraught with distrust and secret agendas.

1 Praise for The Courage of Strangers:

“My friend Jeri Laber tells in this good book of risking her life as a spy with no connection whatsoever to any government. Her hatred for injustice set her into countries with cruel governments, some of them American allies, to gather news of atrocities from victims, which she then told the whole world about. Much as we might wish otherwise, our own government could not, for reasons diplomatic or economic or military or even ideological, engage in such compassionate espionage. A subtitle for the next printing might be: ‘The Privatization of National Honor and Common Decency.’” —Kurt Vonnegut

“This is the memoir of a brave woman, who left her traditional middle class life to confront the varieties of human depravity as a leading operative in the human rights movement. What this occupation can do to one’s soul is not dwelled upon. Her story, with its inevitable moments of high drama, is instructive as history and quietly moving as the statement of a person called to the ministry of humanism. It reminded me that the American Dream is something more than corporate thievery, celebrity worship, and political cant.” —E. L. Doctorow

“The Courage of Strangers is a moving autobiographical account of Jeri Laber’s journey from domestic life with its pleasures and trials to her public role as one of the founders of Human Rights Watch. Beneath her cool in detailing the history of the human rights movement, there is a moral passion that claims the reader’s attention on every page. Jeri Laber’s story—of personal bravery (she would never claim it) and stunning public testimony is compelling and beautifully told.” —Maureen Howard

“It took the labors of Hercules to hoist human rights onto the platforms of international conferences and to make those rights as important as business and political criteria among nations in their dealing with one another. Over the years a considerable number of people have attempted to pressure the Soviets and other regimes toward greater toleration of dissidence, and one of the most effective has been Jeri Laber. This book is her personal story but it is also a concise history if the human rights epoch as she saw it from the end of World War II to the present.” —Arthur Miller

“A persuasive memoir . . . The Courage of Strangers celebrates [political dissidents’] courage, as well as Jeri Laber’s own . . . ” —New York Review of Books

“Timely and impressive . . . Blending an account of an often uneasy private life with a portrait of the characters and events that shaped the American human rights movement—and bringing a cool, clear eye to both—Laber provides a fascinating record . . . The Courage of Strangers is a lucid and engaging history of human rights in both the West and the Soviet countries.” —The Times Literary Supplement

“An honest, moving and simple memoir which shows self-knowledge without self-indulgence . . . She won the trust of such giants of dissidence as Vaclav Havel . . . Andrei Sakharov . . . Natan Sharansky . . . and Larisa Bogoraz.” —The Economist

“The Courage of Strangers details the courage of dissidents and writers, scientists and intellectuals, and not least the courage of an American woman to reach out beyond her sphere of safety. It is an inspirational story, as well as a useful introduction to Soviet and human rights studies.” —The Forward

“[W]hen the governments in the East collapsed, it was often the friends of Jeri Laber, the outcasts of the Helsinki federation, who became the new leaders . . . Jeri Laber certainly was the real thing.” —New York Law Journal

“[D]etails her often dangerous trips to Brezhnev’s Soviet Union and East European nations and chronicles the events leading to the development of Helsinki Watch and Human Rights Watch . . . Inspirational testimony to the value of a human rights organization that investigates and publicizes human rights violations with fairness and without regard to political ideology or US foreign policy.” —Library Journal

“With a gift for storytelling, Laber weaves together passages that intrigue . . . with rare moments of glory . . . The result is a thoughtful . . . but usually fast-paces, inside view of Eastern Europe during a cataclysmic era.” —Hope

Why wouldn’t she be assigned community service for one tiny mistake (something she would DIE over if word ever got out)? And why, of all things, wouldn’t a boy from school happen to work at the pitbull rescue she chooses to do her community service hours at? Oliver West’s dad owns the rescue. And Oliver works there as his second in command. And Brynn and Oliver both know that she absolutely screwed him out of a major opportunity at school not twenty-four hours before she shows up for her community service.

Praise for Kissing Ezra Holtz (and Other Things I Did for Science):

“Realistic and will resonate with many teens. Give this to readers who love witty, humorous love stories mixed with STEM.” — Booklist

“Predictable hate-becomes-love romance is given new life by an inclusive cast. . . . Worth picking up.” —Kirkus Reviews

Praise for The Art of French Kissing:

"Fun, flirty, foodie, and filled with way more heat than your average kitchen, The Art of French Kissing has all the ingredients for a perfect summer romance!" —Dahlia Adler, author of Behind the Scenes

"I ate up this hate-to-love-and-back-again romance! If you love Top Chef but wish more of the show was focused on the romance and rivalries behind the scenes, you'll eagerly devour The Art of French Kissing. Like the best sweet and savory pastries, Carter and Reid deliver both sugar and spice." —Amy Spalding, author of The Summer of Jordi Perez (and the Best Burger in Los Angeles)

"This meet-cute romance stands out thanks to the nuanced characters and subtle treatment of bigger issues such as race, gender, and money (Carter's family flirts with poverty). Carter's insecurities about her culinary skill will resonate with any girl who has aspirations in a field dominated by males, and a sensitive sex scene models for readers what a consensual relationship looks like. A full cast of diverse characters, including Indian-American competitors, Carter's lesbian best friend, and Reid himself, who identifies as queer, are portrayed three-dimensionally, but Shrum's (How to Make Out, 2016, etc.) greatest accomplishment may be the intricate and mouthwatering descriptions of each dish. A thoughtful and delicious romance." —Kirkus Reviews

Praise for How to Make Out:

"An addictive mix of heart, humor, and hot. How to Make Out is the perfect lesson in how to fall in love with YA romance." — Gina Ciocca, author of Last Year's Mistake

“How to write a seriously addictive book? Mission accomplished. Smart, hilarious, and un-put-down-able, How to Make Out will capture readers’ hearts.” —Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of Firsts

"Full of humor, heart, and some serious chemistry, How to Make Out is a fun and romantic read with dynamic characters I won't soon forget." —Chantele Sedgwick, author of Love, Lucas

"Renley is an endearing character with a lot of baggage. Her father’s infidelity, which led to the breakup of her parents’ marriage, eats at Renley and keeps her commitment-phobic. Her mother’s aloofness stings more than Renley can admit. Readers will immediately recognize that Renley feels more for Drew than she is admitting and will root for them to find their way to each other. This is a story with an obvious lesson to it, but the lesson is delivered in an entertaining manner and will be an easy sell to teen girls." —VOYA Magazine

“This laugh-out-loud coming-of- age novel engages readers immediately and never lets go. . . This book distinguishes itself with peripheral characters who are also well-developed and support Renley and the fast-paced plot. Shrum addresses many bildungsroman issues throughout the narrative in a believable and interesting way and still manages to pull off a thought- provoking story that will let young adults understand and relate to Renley’s many crises and how she comes to handle them. VERDICT Readers of Carrie Jones’s Tips on Having a Gay (Ex) Boyfriend will love this.” —School Library Journal

24 Chris Cheung; Foreword by Maneet Chauhan Damn Good Chinese Food Dumplings, Fried Rice, Bao Buns, Hot Cakes, Sesame Noodles, and Other Delicious Dim Sum —50 Recipes Inspired by Life in Chinatown "The absolute best dumplings in New York." —New York Magazine From acclaimed chef Chris Cheung comes a cookbook inspired by the old tea houses of New York's Chinatown—with a foreword by Maneet Chauhan, celebrity chef, author, and judge on The Food Network's Chopped There is a particular region in today's renaissance of Chinese cooking that is often overlooked: Chinatown. In other words, Chinese food cooked in Chinatown for the Chinese community—stir-fried noodles, bao buns, pork buns, scallion pancakes, wontons, potstickers, spring rolls, the list goes on. At the very center of this beloved cuisine were the old tea houses that served countless mouth-watering snacks and treats, providing delicious affordable fuel that fed the working class community. Like many great chefs, Chris Cheung was inspired by the places he grew up eating in. The food of these tea houses is the central philosophy behind Cheung's ever-popular restaurant East Wind Snack Shop, which first opened in 2015 and now has four locations in Brooklyn. There, Chef Cheung's focuses primarily on an endeavor he calls "chasing the perfect dumpling." Whether it's making the dough from scratch, grinding the meat, hand-folding each skin, or perfecting HARDCOVER exact cooking temperatures, Cheung has painstakingly agonized over every specific detail that goes into cooking an understated On Sale: 08/17/21 masterpiece. Skyhorse In addition to learning his technique for creating what New York 9781510758124 Magazine called the "Absolute Best Dumplings in NY," this Cooking First Print: 20,000 cookbook teaches readers how to make all kind of classic delight 7.5 x 9, 208 pages reminiscent of the golden age in Chinatown, such as: Carton quantity: 30 $24.99 (US) / $33.99 (CAN) ·Potstickers ·Salt and Pepper Shrimp ·Spring Rolls ·Stir-Fried Noodles Translation Rights ·Scallion Pancakes ·Egg Tarts Available: World ·Wonton Soup ·Tea Eggs ·Congee ·Soup Dumplings Sales: None ·Hong Kong Hot Cakes ·Fried Wontons ·Sesame Balls Film/TV Rights: Yes ·Gwa Bao Buns ·Bubble Tea ·General Tso's Chicken ·Beef and Broccoli ·Har Gow (Shrimp Dumplings) ·Fried Rice ·Cucumber Salad ·Cold Sesame Noodles ·Roast Pork

25 Like Cheung's restaurants, this cookbook is a tribute to both the food served in those wonderful Chinatown establishments and the community they fed, the food Chris loves to cook, which he says give us "a few moments of happiness that bring us back to our childhood."

Chris Cheung is a New York native and grew up in the heart of Chinatown. He was brought up around great Cantonese food, where he undoubtedly picked up his affinity for Chinese cuisine. Right out of school he started working for world-famous chefs like Jean Georges Vongerichten, Nobu Matsuhisa, and Masaharu Morimoto. Later, he became part of the opening kitchen staff at Jean-Georges, cooking alongside Wylie Dufresne and Didier Virot. Chef Cheung also had the privilege being Anthony Bourdain's guide to New York's Chinatowns on the hit show No Reservations and has competed on The Food Network's Beat Bobby Flay, Next Great Chef (against celebrity chef Sean Brock), and on Esquire's Knife Fight (where he won a cheap knife!). His inspiration for Chinese cooking took him to Shanghai where he prepared banquets in the country side farming and fishing villages. There he learned the nuances of Shanghai cuisine and was blown away by its farm-to-table and sea-to-table style of cooking. Currently, he is the chef and owner of East Wind Snack Shop, which has four locations in Brooklyn.

Maneet Chauhan is a celebrity chef, author, and judge on the Food Network's hit show Chopped, and won the James Beard Award of Excellence winner. She has received glowing accolades from a vast array of media for her globally-inspired culinary acumen. The only Indian female to ever compete on Iron Chef and lauded by Bon Appétit, USA Today, Time, Esquire, Travel & Leisure, Gourmet, Town & Country, Business Week, and O Magazine, as well as garnering a stunning three-star review from the Chicago Tribune, Chef Chauhan is a celebrated chef who is an inspiration to many, and a force to be reckoned with. She authored the book Flavors of Our World in 2013 and her forthcoming book Chaat: The Best Recipes From the Kitchens, Markets, and Railways of India will publish in October of 2020.

Praise for Chris Cheung and East Wind Snack Shop:

"A homage to the [Chinatown's] bygone working-class coffeehouses, run by immigrants who, like Mr. Cheung’s grandparents, came from Taishan, in Guangdong Province." —The New York Times

"Thanks for making it all make brilliant sense." —Anthony Bourdain, on Chris Cheung's knowledge of New York's Chinatowns

"The absolute best dumplings in New York." —New York Magazine

"I picked up my life and moved just to be closer to this Brooklyn dumpling spot. . . . I looked down at my table full of gorgeous stir-fried vegetables, plump dumplings, and pork belly bao, and knew: I was home." —Bon Appétit

"Brooklyn's best (Bao) buns." —Brooklyn Magazine

"A skilled craftsman." —The Village Voice

"A dumpling destination." —Grub Street

"Stellar dumplings . . . The pork dumplings and dry-aged beef potstickers are certainly fantastic, but it’s chef Chris Cheung’s gwa bao- style bun, which places caramelized pork belly on top of the bun rather than inside of it, that has earned the most street cred among in- the-know diners." —Eater

"Dumplings aren't just a lowbrow option for a quick bite—especially with a Nobu vet doing the steaming. That's the story behind East Wind Snack Shop, a brand new chopsticks spot in Windsor Terrace specializing in dumplings, buns and other quickly inhaled Chinese foods." —Gothamist 26 Hannah Kaminsky Super Vegan Scoops!

43 Aaron & MJ Gouveia Men and Miscarriage A Dad's Guide to Grief, Relationships, and Healing After Loss

From an esteemed author known for battling gender norms and bringing down "man up" culture, comes this essential guide for men and those who love them. Miscarriage, infertility, and abortion are generally considered women’s issues—and while they are far from uncommon in our society, open conversations surrounding those topics are exceedingly rare. They're seen as taboo, even distasteful. And that’s just for women. When it comes to men and how they are impacted by these issues, it’s almost complete radio silence. It’s not that men don’t think about these things or aren’t affected—after all, they make up half of most couples experiencing these issues—it’s that toxic masculinity and gender stereotypes in our society tell men that suffering in silence equals strength and expressing emotions is weakness. It’s men not knowing how to feel, how to express those feelings, or if they’re even allowed to feel this trauma beyond supporting their partner. In Men and Miscarriage, husband and wife Aaron and MJ Gouveia ask men (and others) these questions directly. Using their own personal experiences enduring four miscarriages and a medically-necessary abortion combined with interviews of people from all different backgrounds and walks of life, the couple sheds light on how these topics influence men, women, their relationships, HARDCOVER their mental health, and examines the shame and stigma too often On Sale: 07/06/21 associated with pregnancies that don't go as planned. Skyhorse 9781510763609 Family & Relationships Aaron Gouveia is a former award-winning journalist who has appeared in TIME, the First Print: 10,000 TODAY Show, Good Morning America, People, Mashable,and USA Today to discuss 5.5 x 8.25, 216 pages topics on parenting young boys in the age of toxic masculinity.

44 Praise for Men and Miscarriage:

"As an early IVF pioneer in the 1980s, I learned that emotional support for women was scarce, but for men was nonexistent. 'Test tube babies' were still viewed as suspect, if not monstrous. Without social media and blogging, depression and isolation were commonplace yet hidden from view. Therapeutic support could only be accessed privately or through the national infertility association RESOLVE, which provided in-person groups and phone contacts that men did not use. Male grief and loss were left unaddressed. Over three decades later, long after the miraculous birth of my daughter, Aaron and MJ Gouveia have created the resource that might have made a difference in the health of my first marriage. As a psychologist and feminist author, I think and write a lot about gendered communication patterns in a society that expects men to stoically forgo mental healthcare lest they be viewed as weak. The Gouveias bust this myth wide open and expose it for the damaging stereotype that it is. This is a must-read for all people struggling with reproductive issues and the strain they put on relationships. If romantic relationships involve two people, then the care and feeding of those relationships require two people as well. This is an indispensable resource for couples experiencing pain and heartbreak in the journey toward parenthood."—Lori Day, educational psychologist and author of Her Next Chapter

Praise for Aaron Gouveia's Raising Boys to Be Good Men:

"If you are the parent of a boy—especially a dad—this is the book you have been waiting for, the book you need. Gouveia, who has three sons, has thought deeply and sometimes uncomfortably about his own masculine identity and how it informs his fatherhood. His insightful, enlightened, practical guidance will help you raise not only ‘good' but in fact the very best of men!" —Peggy Orenstein, New York Times bestselling author of Boys & Sex

"Whether we admit it or not, every guy struggles with the question of what it means to be a man. With good humor and practical advice, Aaron Gouveia tackles the question head-on in this unflinching but tender account of his own journey through the minefield of masculinity to become a better husband, dad, and human. The perfect read for any father or father-to-be." —Michael Ian Black, New York Times bestselling author, actor, and comedian

“This book is gold! Not only is this a great parenting book, but it’s a great book about life in general. Raising Boys to be Good Men is a fun, hard-hitting, enjoyable read that will make people rethink how they’re raising their tiny humans in today’s world.” —Doyin Richards, bestselling author of What’s the Difference and Daddy Doin’ Work

"How refreshing to see a man, and dad of three sons, take on the 'restrictive bullshit that's been choking boys forever' and teaching them a different way." —Upworthy

"Aaron has been an important voice in the online parenting community for years, and he delivers this important message with his characteristic bluntness, passion, and erudition. He'll call out anyone's behavior—including his own—to make sure his three sons inhabit a world with a healthier appreciation for what men can and should be. And we'll all be better for it." —Doug French, cofounder of Dad 2.0
