&ldquo;Barbara Hall&rsquo;s work has always been remarkable for showing the hidden worlds within the world around us.&#160;Charisma&#160;tells the story a woman trying come to terms with what appears to be a supernatural &lsquo;gift&rsquo; and the doctor who tries to help her while not believing a word of it. As she did in her brilliant television series&#160;Joan of Arcadia, Hall presents the otherworldly elements in such a matter of fact way that the reader cannot help but believe in them. The duel of wits between patient and doctor dares to be witty, intelligent and emotionally generous all at once. It&rsquo;s pitch perfect, dazzling fiction.&rdquo; &mdash;Phoef Sutton&ldquo;Barbara Hall&rsquo;s writing is exquisite in this riveting glimpse into the world of spirituality and mental illness, near death experience and the real life search for authentic existence. With captivating characters, pitch perfect dialogue, and a seemingly innate understanding of the Divine,&#160;Charisma&#160;is an existential, theological and literary tour de force.&rdquo; &mdash;Rev. Andrea Raynor, author of&#160;The Voice That Calls You Home

Praise for The Best Minds of My Generation:

“A marvelous feat of editing and reorganization . . . A compact and often spellbinding text, preserving intact the story of the literary movement Ginsberg led, promoted and never ceased to embody . . . Put together by an erudite genius of encyclopedic recall.”—New York Times Book Review

“Scholarly, wide-ranging and full of penetrating insight and fascinating literary gossip, the book is a major contribution to the core Beat canon, and provides an astonishingly intimate view of a homegrown American literary movement that would have a generative influence worldwide . . . Best Minds situates the Beats in cultural history in a way that no other exploration of their work does.”—San Francisco Chronicle

“Bill Morgan has culled The Best Minds of My Generation from two decades of lectures
delivered by Ginsberg, the Beats’ chief mouthpiece, lit hustler, chronicler and flamekeeper . . . The Best Minds of My Generation is a reminder that great writing is not always about good taste or approved schools of technique, but engagement, energy and revolt.”—Irish Times

“Jack Kerouac may have coined the term Beat Generation, but it was Ginsberg’s indefatigable energy that shaped and sustained one of the most significant movements in American literature . . . Morgan, a leading authority on Ginsberg and author of numerous books on the Beat Generation, has done a superb job organizing and editing the material, while preserving the poet’s voice and lecture style . . . Essential reading.”—Library Journal

“A gold mine for anyone interested in beat literature . . . Ginsberg reads and thinks like a poet; interested in language and style, he abandons narrative to leap from image to image, yoking grandiloquent statements with pungent summations and deadpan remarks. Fans of the period will embrace Ginsberg’s raconteur style and insider knowledge about his friends and their achievements.”—Publishers Weekly

“Authoritatively edited by Morgan from course material and tapes . . . While many classes were as free-wheeling, digressive, and opinionated as anyone might expect from Ginsberg, most offered close readings, literary background, candid recollections, and cogent analyses, highlighting both craft and literary influence . . . A rich sourcebook for literary historians and fans of the passionate, iconoclastic Beats.”—Kirkus Reviews

“A compilation sure to please followers of the Beat Generation’s Jack Kerouac, William S. Burroughs and others.”—OutClique

&#147;Walk Like a Man beautifully and accurately describes the way that rock and roll and fandom can touch and change our lives.&#8221;&#151;Craig Finn, The Hold Steady"Walk Like a Man gives us one man's Boss, served up the way it should be-obsessive, penetrating, and rapturous. Wiersema is no critic, but an articulate every-fan who taps the Springsteen zeitgeist as it radiates from the music into his own life."&#151;Joel Selvin, senior pop music correspondent, San Francisco Chronicle"Walk Like a Man is about growing up, getting old, and being lucky enough to have a treasured soundtrack to make sense of it all."&#151;Ray Robertson, author of David and Moody Food"Walk Like a Man succeeds on multiple levels both as music writing and as a reflective story of how to navigate manhood"&#8212Bookslut"

Walk Like a Man

&#147;[Harrison&#8217;s] books glisten with love of the world, and are as grounded as Thoreau&#8217;s in the particulars of American place&#151;its rivers and thickets, its highways and taverns. Bawdily and with unrelenting gusto, Harrison&#8217;s 40 years of writing explores what constitutes a good life, both aesthetically and morally, on this planet. . . . Quietly magnificent . . . A luminous, sad calm pervades this novel. . . . [An] extraordinary valediction to mourning. It sharpens one&#8217;s appetite for life even at its darkest.&#8221; &#151;Will Blythe, The New York Times Book Review&#147;Time, memory, and the land all play key roles in Harrison's remarkable new novel. . . . A deeply felt meditation on life and death, nature and God, this is one of Harrison's finest works.&#8221;&#151;Library Journal (starred review)&#147;Jim Harrison is a writer with a bear in him. Fearless, a top predator, omnivorous, he consumes all manner of literature and history and philosophy while walking the North Woods, fishing in streams or driving the back roads of North America &#133; He is one of the great writers of our age for the muscularity of his prose; his strong, declarative sentences boom one after the other like waves pounding a Lake Superior shore, each carrying some new flotsam from the conscious or unconscious worlds.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Jim Lenfestey, Minneapolis Star-Tribune&#147;Wrenchingly sad &#133;&#8221; &#150;&#150;Charles McGrath, The New York Times&#147;[Harrison] offers &#133; roomy definition of integrity endlessly open to interpretation and based on relationships with the earth, with one&#8217;s family, with oneself. Locating ourselves in the four directions, in the march of ancestors, in the web of species, Harrison means to tell us, might help us feel safer, which would make us kinder and less destructive&#133;. Although these characters share a common heritage and interests, they remain so distinct, so memorable, that you would recognize their voices in a crowded bar, even if you had your back to them. As for the places they love and inhabit, the chokecherry and dogwood and porcupine-quill baskets and feathers and stones &#150; well, let&#8217;s just say that all five senses were used to re-create them.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Susan Salter Reynolds, The Los Angeles Times&#147;Beautifully written&#133;&#8221; &#150;&#150;Ashley Simpson Shires, Rocky Mountain News&#147;Beautiful, complex and &#133; heart-wrenching&#133;. Really&#133; really, Harrison is one of the most remarkable writers on the planet. He is one of the few who can write a book about death and dying that is at once dignified, uplifting and hilarious, without a trace of mawkishness or sentimentality&#133;. On every page of a Harrison novel are revelatory gems of seemingly off-handed wisdom&#133;. It is useless to catalog the wisdom on every page of &#145;Returning to Earth,&#8217; except to say that like great poetry, Harrison&#8217;s prose has the power to stop the eye and the mind at the same time, to suspend a reader in an absolute moment of contemplation, and to tear away the junk of the world, revealing only what our deepest nature desires, peace and contentment&#133;. Redemption and courage flow from Harrison&#8217;s heart to ours. We&#8217;re lucky to have him. He&#8217;s a genuine treasure, an American writer who deserves the Nobel Prize for Literature.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Gaylord Dold, The Wichita Eagle&#147;For more than four decades his sinewy prose and poetry have been exhorting us &#150; without timidity &#150; to embrace life in all its sensuality. Now, with his splendid new novel, [Harrison] delivers a treatise on love, loss, and longing, and reminds us that such embarrassment can compromise our lives while we yet live&#133;. This should not be mistaken as an endorsement of &#145;closure&#8217; that false sedative to which we, in our instant-gratification society, seem addicted. Harrison fairly thumbs his nose at that hollow concept. He knows that yearning outlives acceptance. His point is more profound.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Craig L. Smith, Santa Fe New Mexican&#147;Mr. Harrison [is] one of the finest American writers of the last half-century&#133;. Mr. Harrison &#133; writes with great beauty and power about nature and the outdoors&#133;. This is a major book by a major writer working at the top of his powers. Don&#8217;t miss it.&#8221; &#150;&#150;John Greenya, The Washington Times&#147;Harrison is a companionable writer whose best work reads like a long conversation with an eccentric friend. In Returning to Earth, the anecdotes within the larger narrative have the drift of oral language and the texture of the oft-repeated tales good buddies exchange when they reconnect after a long absence&#133;. The sort of speaker most people can listen to for hours.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Joe Campana, The Missoula Independent&#147;At the center of the novel, the irreducible conundrum: What matters after life is stripped away? That is the question. It is not an easy question and it is the question we most often look away from, in a culture swept up in the distractions of the everyday. Be kind, Harrison might say by way of a sideways answer. Be true and be kind.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Ft. Lauderdale Sun-SentinelHarrison offers a &#133; view of death and redemption that is as earthbound and humble as it is spiritual and profound.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Tim McNulty, The Seattle Times &#147;[Jim Harrison] has become a major figure in American literature, and nowhere are the reasons for that more clear than in his newest novel, &#145;Returning to Earth.&#8217; &#133; &#145;Returning to Earth&#8217; is &#133; a prodigious achievement. It is both familiar and strange, rooted and rootless, endlessly dark and occasionally hilarious. It is above all human: raucous, literary, bawdy, goofy and wise. It is heartbreakingly sad. And it registers the redemption of love, the power of the word to speak the truth, the peace that comes to those who live even when it is time to die.&#8221; &#173;&#173;&#150;&#150;Bart Thurber, San Diego Union-Tribune&#147;Harrison's characters speak with a gripping frankness and intimacy about their own shortcomings, and delve into their  grief with keen sympathy.&#8221;&#151;Publishers Weekly&#147;&#145;Returning to Earth&#8217; is a poignant and powerful reflection of how all stories become one in the end &#133; a story told with bare-bones honesty and simple eloquence.&#8221; &#150;&#150;David Nolt, Livingston Weekly&#147;[Jim Harrison&#8217;s] fiction is rooted in primitive feelings of earthy connectedness and the mystical bonds shared by human beings and nature, or that could be shared were not our innocence corrupted by greed and unholy aspiration.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Fredric Koeppel, The Commercial Appeal&#147;Readers will find Returning to Earth both substantial and nourishing &#133; Robust, soulful, satisfying, Returning to Earth is a reminder of the death-defying power of deep and abiding love.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Kathleen Johnson, Kansas City Star&#147;Each section of this brilliant novel set in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan is told from the perspective of a different character dealing with loss and love. I think this is one of the best novels I've read in months, and if you're discovering Jim Harrison for the first time, this is a great book to get you started on his work.&#8221;&#151;Gayle Shanks, Changing Hands Bookstore, Tempe, AZ, Book Sense quote&#147;Harrison&#8217;s newest novel, &#145;Returning to Earth,&#8217; contains some of the most poignant moments he has ever imagined.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Daniel Dyer, Cleveland Plain Dealer&#147;Grade: A.&#133; Returning to Earth is a beautifully written account of one man&#8217;s passing and the effect on his multifaceted and multicultural family.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Ashley Simpson Shires, Rocky Mountain News&#147;[Returning to Earth] is told in a prose so pure and scraped of excess that a paragraph can seem a novel, a sentence a poem.&#133; Breathtaking.&#8221; &#150;&#150;Ted Roelofs, The Grand Rapids Press&#147;Deeply moving&#133;&#8221; &#150;&#150;Book Passage&#147;A wise and moving story about life, death, and letting go.&#8221; &#150;&#150;The Octavian&#147;Returning to Earth (another wonderful title from an author who understands their importance) is best at the level of the sentence and the paragraph, which is where Harrison&#8217;s prose most shines. As a poet, he is especially attentive to the power of single words &#133; there is much to be said in praise of this quiet reflective work that presents an ordinary life in its final state of repose. Here we will all go in the end, and Jim Harrison has traveled that future length of the trail for us. &#133; The novel reaffirms his dedication to the craft and the persistence and clarity of his vision.&#8221;&#151;The Bloomsbury Review&#147;Jim Harrison is a rare find. His characters are so skillfully rendered that they become real to the reader &#150; self-conscious, spontaneous and imperfect. Harrison&#8217;s voice is direct and brutal, bringing to light the parts of ourselves that we try to keep hidden, and the tiniest thought we leave unsaid.&#8221;&#151;Bridget Randles, Albuquerque Journal

Praise for Not Your Mother's Meatloaf"I wish I could go back in time and learn about sex from this book."&#151;Alison Bechdel, author of Are You My Mother? and Fun Home"Not Your Mother&#8217;s Meatloaf&#151;seven chapters of candidly self-aware comics and writings&#151;explores the multifarious world of the human sexual experience. Topics include experimentation, faking orgasms, cross-dressing, learning how to casually talk about sex with friends, abusive relationships, finding liberation through positive influences, first times, last times, health, age, identity, body image, substance abuse, masturbation and strange desires. While some traditional sex-ed books can seem patronizing toward adolescents, Not Your Mother's Meatloaf consists of real people telling their own stories." -Albuquerque Weekly
