SHE MARRIED OSAMA BIN LADEN'S BROTHER.
NOW SHE DARES TO TELL HER STORY!
Inside the Kingdom, perhaps the most vivid account yet to appear in the West of the oppressive lives of Saudi women. This international bestseller gives the shocking account of what it's like to be a woman- even a wealthy woman from a privileged family- in Saudi Arabia today. In an unprecedented act, Carmen Bin Ladin dares to throw off the veil that conceals one of the most powerful, secretive, and repressive countries in the world- and the Bin Laden family's role within it.
The latest book by Pulitzer-prize winner Richard Russo is now available. Bridge of Sighs is classic Russo, coursing with small-town rhythms and the claims of family, yet it is brilliantly enlarged by an expatriate whose motivations and experiences-often contrary, sometimes not- prove every bit as mesmerizing as they resonate through these richly different lives. Here is a town, as well as a world, defined by magnificent and nearly devastating contradictions.
In his first novel since his New York Times bestseller Forever, Pete Hamill returns with North River, a love story set against the backdropof some of New York City's toughest streets. Re-creating old New York with the vibrancy and rich detail that are his trademarks, Pete Hamill weaves a story of love, family, and one man's simple courage that no reader will soon forget.
