Hungry Monkey
A Food-Loving Father’s Quest to Raise an Adventurous Eater
by Matthew Amster-Burton
The delightful tale of a restaurant critic, his daughter, and
the joys of rediscovering food through a child’s eyes—with
recipes. “This charming, funny book is full of great ideas for
family meals. In a world of culinary pandering to kids, where
vegetables in disguise pass for cuisine, Amster-Burton gets
the recipe right” (Neal Pollack, author of Alternadad).

Stepmonster
A New Look at Why Real Stepmothers
Think, Feel, and Act the Way We Do
by Wednesday Martin, Ph.D.
What woman with stepchildren has not, in order to diffuse
the often overwhelming emotions and challenges of the role,
referred to herself as a “stepmonster”? Wednesday Martin’s
empowering and original book shines a light on what’s
unhelpful to women in the usual take on stepmothering—
namely, the focus on stepchildren and the emphasis on
how to be a substitute parent. Instead, Stepmonster
unlocks the mysteries of why stepmothers think, feel,
and act the way they do.

“At the ages of fourteen and fifteen, I had read Great Expectations twice—
Dickens made me want to be a writer—but it was reading The Tin Drum at nineteen and twenty
that showed me how. It was Günter Grass who demonstrated that it was possible to be a living
writer who wrote with Dickens’s full range of emotion and relentless outpouring of language.
Grass wrote with fury, love, derision, slapstick, pathos—all with an unforgiving conscience.”
“This is what Grass’s great novel said to me in its drumbeats: Go for broke.
Always try and do too much. Dispense with safety nets. Take a deep breath before you begin
talking. Aim for the stars. Keep grinning. Be ruthless. Argue with the world. And never forget
that writing is as close as we get to keeping a hold on the thousand and one things—childhood,
certainties, cities, doubts, dreams, instants, phrases, parents, loves—that go on slipping, like sand,

* Tom Brokaw
“I admit I picked up [Mrs. Astor Regrets] thinking I didn’t want to read one more word about
whether Brooke was exploited, extorted, or left to languish. It seemed too painful. But on the other
hand, it was news bound up in the essence of an Edith Wharton novel. And, incredibly, it is fair,
unbiased reporting. The story is simply riveting and so well told.”
“Gordon seems to have left no diary unread, no servant unsolicited, no socialite unturned.
Her stamina is remarkable . . . If the tabloids are your morning cup of tea, this is your book.”
—New York Times Book Review
“A family tragedy that’s also the best food-court conversation you’ve ever overheard.”
—Minneapolis Star Tribune
“With a journalist’s eye and a New Yorker’s raised eyebrow, Meryl Gordon weaves a web of fine detail
into an enthralling, engaging story of Mrs. Astor’s failing years. There are characters here that
no novelist would ever dare to invent, and the plot has more twists than a pretzel.”
—Geraldine Brooks, author of People of the Book and the Pulitzer Prize–winning March
