Hardcover. Condition: new. Chast, Roz (illustrator). Hardcover. Goodnight Moon meets Goodnight Already! in this very funny bedtime book from New Yorker contributors Patricia Marx and Roz Chast. This is the story of Nellie Bee Nightly, who is not tired at all. And swears she never will be! The popcorn is too pooped to pop, and the nightstand is too tired to stand up straight and must lie down -- but Nellie? Nope, she's wide awake, and not ready for bedtime AT ALL. Instead, she gives her goldfish a mustache and hangs her bed from the ceiling so that she can install a swimming pool in her room. Nellie, after all, went to sleep last night, and shouldn't that be enough sleep to last a lifetime? Wonderfully quirky, subversively sweet, and effortlessly classic, Tired Town is a brilliant new bedtime story from humorist Patricia Marx and Roz Chast, the #1 New York Times-bestselling and award-winning creator of Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?: A Memoir and I Must Be Dreaming. Goodnight Moon meets Goodnight Already! in this very funny bedtime book from New Yorker contributors Patricia Marx and Roz Chast.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 304 pages. From one of America's greatest comic novelists, a hilarious new novel about aging, family, loneliness, and love Th e Bergman clan has always stuck together, growing as it incorpora ted in-laws, ex-in-laws, and same-sex spouses. But families don't just grow, they grow old, and the clan's matriarch, Joy, is not slipping into old age with the quiet grace her children, Molly an d Daniel, would have wished. When Joy's beloved husband dies, Mol ly and Daniel have no shortage of solutions for their mother's lo neliness and despair, but there is one challenge they did not cou nt on: the reappearance of an ardent suitor from Joy's college da ys. And they didn't count on Joy herself, a mother suddenly as wi llful and rebellious as their own kids. The New York Times-bests elling author Cathleen Schine has been called full of invention, wit, and wisdom that can bear comparison to [ Jane] Austen's own (The New York Review of Books), and she is at her best in this in tensely human, profound, and honest novel about the intrusion of old age into the relationships of one loving but complicated fami ly. They May Not Mean To, But They Do is a radiantly compassionat e look at three generations, all coming of age together. Editori al Reviews Review Praise for They May Not Mean To, But They Do Cathleen Schine [is] one of our most realistically imaginative, dependably readable novelists. . . [H]er ten books comprise a sly , illuminating corpus that seems more related to the English comi c novel than to most contemporary American fiction. [S]hapely and precisely structured. . . ruefully satiric. . . buoyant. . . sha rply observant. . . Her tenth and newest novel . . . cuts deeper, feels fuller and more ambitious, and seems to me her best. ?Phil lip Lopate, New York Review of Books Schine's painfully beautifu l depiction of a woman's heroism in the face of that abyss offers , like the best literature, a reminder of the tender, frightening vulnerability we all share. ?Los Angeles Review of Books This m arvelous novel is emotionally stirring and hilarious on virtually every page. How does Cathleen Schine know everything about every thing? Her observations about family life, friendship, loss, agin g, dignity, indignity, and the attachments we miraculously make t hat never seem to unattach are profound and rewarding. I already miss living in the world of this special and winning book. ?Meg W olitzer, author of The Interestings Cathleen Schine has written an entirely different kind of coming-of-age novel. This is not ab out how a twentysomething becomes a thirtysomething. It's about h ow people making the difficult and at times scary journey into ol d old age figure out how to live. And it's about the people who s urround them?with love, anxiety, resentment, and sometimes comple te misunderstanding. They May Not Mean To, But They Do is a great read: empathetic, and also very, very funny. ?Roz Chast, author of Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant? Oh, but you do n eed Schine's novel. At least, you do if you're a reader who relis hes acute psychological perceptions and lots of laughs to leaven the existential grimness, like those other literary domestic godd esses to whom she's sometimes compared, Jane Austen and Nora Ephr on . . . Does anyone really ever do anyone else any good? That's the question this sparkling and sad novel mulls over and answers with a wry shrug. ?Maureen Corrigan, NPR They May Not Mean To, B ut They Do is a very funny novel. . .This is a situation plenty o f readers will recognize. . . Schine reminds us that a family is as united by its trials as by its triumphs. . . Schine writes wit h economy and style . . . [D]eftly handled storytelling. ?Penelop e Lively, The New York Times Book Review This is one of those la ugh-out-loud-on-the-subway novels, but it also manages to be sad and authentic . . . [S]he tells a story that is tender, wise, hil arious and painful. Give this book to your siblings and.

In 1988, when Kimball is only four years old, her mother attempts suicide on Mother's Day-and this becomes one of many things Kimball's family never speaks about. As she searches for answers nearly thirty years later, Kimball embarks on a thrilling visual journey into the secrets her family has kept for decades.Using old diary entries, hospital records, home videos, and other archives, Margaret pieces together a narrative map of her childhood-her mother's bipolar disorder, her grandmother's institutionalization, and her brother's increasing struggles-in an attempt to understand what no one likes to talk about: the fractures in her family.Both a coming-of-age story about family dysfunction and a reflection on mental health, AND NOW I SPILL THE FAMILY SECRETS is funny, poignant, and deeply inspiring in its portrayal of what drives a family apart and what keeps them together.

The Washington Post "10 Best Graphic Novels of the Year"New York magazine "The Years Most Giftable Coffee-Table Books"Newsday "Best Fall Books"The Verge "10 Best Comics of the Year"Oklahoman "Best Graphic Novels of the Year"Winner of the New York City Book AwardFrom the #1 NYT bestselling author of Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?, Roz Chast, an "absolutely laugh-out-loud hysterical" (AP) illustrated ode/guide/thank-you to Manhattan.New Yorker cartoonist and NYT bestselling author Roz Chast, native Brooklynite-turned-suburban commuter deemed the quintessential New Yorker, has always been intensely alive to the glorious spectacle that is Manhattan--the daily clash of sidewalk racers and dawdlers, the fascinating range of dress codes, and the priceless, nutty outbursts of souls from all walks of life.For Chast, adjusting to life outside the city was surreal (you can own trees!? you have to drive!?), but she recognized that the reverse was true for her kids. On trips into town, they would marvel at the strange visual world of Manhattan--its blackened sidewalk gum wads, "those West Side Storythings" (fire escapes)--its crazily honeycombed systems and grids.Told through Chast's singularly zany, laugh-out-loud, touching, and true cartoons, Going into Town is part New York stories (the "overheard and overseen" of the island borough), part personal and practical guide to walking, talking, renting, and venting--an irresistible, one-of-a-kind love letter to the city.
