Book excerpt: Death Grip chronicles a top climber's near-fatal struggle with anxiety and depression, and his nightmarish journey through the dangerous world of prescription drugs. Matt Samet lived to climb, and craved the challenge, risk, and exhilaration of conquering sheer rock faces around the United States and internationally. But Samet's depression, compounded by the extreme diet and fitness practices of climbers, led him to seek professional help. He entered the murky, inescapable world of psychiatric medicine, where he developed a dangerous addiction to prescribed medications—primarily "benzos," or benzodiazepines—that landed him in institutions and nearly killed him. With dramatic storytelling, persuasive research data, and searing honesty, Matt Samet reveals the hidden epidemic of benzo addiction, which some have suggested can be harder to quit than heroin. Millions of adults and teenagers are prescribed these drugs, but few understand how addictive they are—and how dangerous long-term usage can be, even when prescribed by doctors. After a difficult struggle with addiction, Samet slowly makes his way to a life in recovery through perseverance and a deep love of rock climbing. Conveying both the exhilaration of climbing in the wilderness and the utter madness of addiction, Death Grip is a powerful and revelatory memoir.

Book excerpt: Can people die, or have near-death experiences, and come back to life again? Is it possible to experience the afterlife in advance or are such impressions merely the result of brain chemistry changes at the point of death? Is there really an eternal destination after death? With so many people claiming to have these kinds of encounters, shouldn't we investigate them? In Evading Death's Grip, Dr. Steve Long shares his personally-driven perspective on this vital subject. After experiencing a heart attack and subsequent near-death experiences (NDEs) while in Taiwan, he was allowed to return to his body, 're-entering' this natural world with a brand-new set of values and insights. Since that pivotal point in his life, Dr. Long has researched around 1,500 sources of NDEs and out-of-body experiences, and has become an experiential and well-read expert in this intriguing and important field of study. Many of his findings are included in this book. Once you read these riveting accounts, you will know-more than ever-what path truly leads to eternal life.

Book excerpt: The fact that we will die, and that our death can come at any time, pervades the entirety of our living. There are many ways to think about and deal with death. Among those ways, however, a good number of them are attempts to escape its grip. In this book, Todd May seeks to confront death in its power. He considers the possibility that our mortal deaths are the end of us, and asks what this might mean for our living. What lessons can we draw from our mortality? And how might we live as creatures who die, and who know we are going to die? In answering these questions, May brings together two divergent perspectives on death. The first holds that death is not an evil, or at least that immortality would be far worse than dying. The second holds that death is indeed an evil, and that there is no escaping that fact. May shows that if we are to live with death, we need to hold these two perspectives together. Their convergence yields both a beauty and a tragedy to our living that are inextricably entwined.Drawing on the thoughts of many philosophers and writers - ancient and modern - as well as his own experience, May puts forward a particular view of how we might think about and, more importantly, live our lives in view of the inescapability of our dying. In the end, he argues, it is precisely the contingency of our lives that must be grasped and which must be folded into the hours or years that remain to each of us, so that we can live each moment as though it were at once a link to an uncertain future and yet perhaps the only link we have left.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When he was three years old, James Reed lost his family to a raging apartment fire. Reed, taken in by his loving, but unwell grandmother, turned to the streets of Englewood, on Chicago's South Side, for survival at age eight. There he found the love and sense of belonging and purpose that he could not have with his family. Life in the street gang turned violent as Reed, often feeling angry and alone in the world, entered his teenage years. Reed embraced criminality as he floated from home to home, and in and out of juvenile detention. But it was also a time in his life when he fell in love, ran with a loyal crew, made lots of money, and traveled the country. Years later, from a downstate prison in his early 20s, Reed, with only an eighth grade education, began writing by hand story after true story of this reckless period in his life, a time, he now realizes, when he did not value his life or the lives of others-a time when he wanted to die and be with the family he never really knew. Drawing upon writing guides from the prison library, Reed developed his skills as a writer as he rewrote, revised, and structured the assorted recollections from his teenage years into a riveting, fully-formed manuscript. Escaping Death's Grip, with an Afterword by University of Chicago sociologist Chad Broughton, is Reed's autobiography of growing up in Englewood. With violence spiking in Chicago, Escaping Death's Grip is a must-read for anyone who wants to learn about the streets from someone who lived them.

Book excerpt: The novel that launched the career of one of Australia’s greatest writers, following the doomed infatuations of a young, single mother, enthralled by the excesses of Melbourne's late-70s counterculture The name Helen Garner commands near-universal acclaim. A master novelist, short-story writer, and journalist, Garner is best known for her frank, unsparing, and intricate portraits of Australian life, often drawn from the pages of her own journals and diaries. Now, in a newly available US edition, comes the disruptive debut that established Garner's masterful and quietly radical literary voice. Set in Australia in the late 1970s, Monkey Grip follows single mother and writer Nora as she navigates the tumultuous cityscape of Melbourne’s bohemian underground, often with her young daughter Gracie in tow. When Nora falls in love with the flighty Javo, she becomes snared in the web of his addiction. And as their tenuous relationship disintegrates, Nora struggles to wean herself off a love that feels impossible to live without. When it first published in 1977, Monkey Grip was both a sensation and a lightning rod. While some critics praised the upstart Garner for her craft, many scorned her gritty depictions of the human body and all its muck, her frankness about sex and drugs and the mess of motherhood, and her unabashed use of her own life as inspiration. Today, such criticism feels old-fashioned and glaringly gendered, and Monkey Grip is considered a modern masterpiece. A seminal novel of Australia’s turbulent 1970s and all it entailed—communal households, music, friendships, children, love, drugs, and sex—Monkey Grip now makes its long-overdue American debut.

Book excerpt: The irresistible companion to the #1 New York Times bestseller Dumplin’, now a Netflix feature film starring Danielle Macdonald and Jennifer Aniston, and a soundtrack by Dolly Parton! Millie Michalchuk has gone to fat camp every year since she was a little girl. Not this year. This year she has new plans to chase her secret dream of being a newscaster—and to kiss the boy she’s crushing on. Callie Reyes is the pretty girl who is next in line for dance team captain and has the popular boyfriend. But when it comes to other girls, she’s more frenemy than friend. When circumstances bring the girls together over the course of a semester, they surprise everyone (especially themselves) by realizing that they might have more in common than they ever imagined. A story about unexpected friendship, romance, and Texas-size girl power, this is another winner from Julie Murphy.
