Society’s Child: My Autobiography Janis Ian 9781585427499 16.95 paper Tarcher
Janis Ian was catapulted into the spotlight in 1966 at the age of fifteen, when her soul‐wrenching song "Society's Child" became a hit. An intimate portrait of an interracial relationship, "Society's Child" climbed the charts despite the fact that many radio stations across the country refused to play it because of its controversial subject matter. But this was only the beginning of a long and illustrious career. In this fascinating memoir of her more than forty years in the music business, Ian chronicles how she did drugs with Jimi Hendrix, went shopping for Grammy clothes with Janis Joplin, and sang with Mel Tormé—all the while never ceasing to create unforgettable music.

As Arthur struggles with his sexuality and Katrina’s beauty and talent land her in a Broadway musical, the two forge a tender friendship.

Stitches: A Memoir David Small 9780393068573 24.95 hardcover W.W. Norton
This prize‐winning author depicts a childhood from hell in this searing yet redemptive graphic memoir.
In this profound and moving memoir, Small, an award‐ winning book illustrator, uses his drawings to depict the consciousness of a young boy. The story starts when the narrator is six years old and follows him into adulthood, with most of the story spent during his early adolescence. The youngest member of a silent and unhappy family, David is subjected to repeated x‐rays to monitor sinus problems. When he develops cancer as a result of this procedure, he is operated on without being told what is wrong with him. The operation results in the loss of his voice, cutting him off even further from the world around him.
Some understanding is gained as family secrets are unearthed (including his mother’s lesbian life and closeted affairs), but for the most part David fends for himself in a family that is uncommunicative to a truly ghastly degree.
