GalleyCat spent the weekend at New York Comic Con, but here are some selections from our New Books section for a graphic novel break.
No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think About Power by Gloria Feldt: “Feminist icon Gloria Feldt reveals that no one is holding women back but themselves—and offers real strategies for what they can do to change their thinking, reclaim their power and step into leadership position.” (October 5th)
Russell Wiley Is Out to Lunch by Richard Hine: “This wry contemporary comedy — one part Glengarry Glen Ross and two parts Sophie Kinsella — will make readers cheer. Russell Wiley is Assistant Sales Director for one of a dying breed, The Daily Business Chronicle newspaper. Rumor says former shopping cart magnate Larry Ghosh (pronounced “gauche”), new owner of the media company that publishes the Chronicle, is going to dismantle the paper. Can Russell save his job, and the paper?” (October 12th)
That Old Black Magic by Tom Clavin: “During the 1950s and into the early ’60s, the married Prima and Smith were very popular performers who along with pals Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and others ruled Las Vegas and TV variety shows. This is their finger–snapping story of great music and great times in the booming desert city.” (November 1st)
