Bechdel, Alison

THE SECRET TO SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH (Tentative pub: 2017)

World Rights

The bestselling author of FUN HOME and ARE YOU MY MOTHER? and winner of both a Guggenheim

Fellowship and a MacArthur Genius award will again write an intensely personal and witty graphic memoir,

but instead writing about her family, this time she will explore her decade-by-decade pursuit of fitness, set

against the historical/cultural context of each fitness fad. Through the decades, as Alison pursues downhill

skiing, uphill skiing, martial arts, weightlifting, yoga, rollerblading, biking, hiking, home workout DVDs, and

running, she also confronts her own creativity, vices, and her mortality.

food swaps. Whether it's pizza, burritos, energy drinks, or cookies, Blattner will offer recipes and suggestions

counting. Blattner's recipes and meal plans are very solid and interesting, and she advocates what she calls

"delicious monotony," (eating the same foods often), which experts say helps with weight control. Blattner also

has a snappy, memorable style rarely seen in books of this sort.

Georges, Nicole

FETCH! – graphic memoir

World rights

Nicole Georges, author of the graphic memoir CALLING DR. LAURA, writes an utterly charming memoir

about her dog, Beija, a complex, soulful pup who sported a“Don’t Pet Me” bandana. Beija was never going to

be a good dog, but he was, for Nicole, the best dog. Anyone who’s had (and lost) a dog can relate to the feeling

that you and your pet are reinforcing each other’s personality quirks, and Georges takes it a step further with

the story of how caring for and being cared for by Beija made her who she is today. FETCH is a funny, self-

deprecating, and sometimes profound look at the interplay between rescue dogs and rescued humans.

advances that have helped them. Her subjects have all given her permission to see their medical records and

to speak to their therapists and physicians and families. Maya’s insights, and the science behind them, will be

substantiated by major, nationally recognized health professionals.

GRAVITY: The Great Absurdity (nonfiction)

World rights

By the author of THE 4 PERCENT UNIVERSE, this is the scientific and cultural story of humanity’s attempts to

make sense of this unruly concept. The influence of gravity is evident all round us, and not just in the physics

of falling down or in the armrest grip during takeoff. As of a momentous announcement on March 17, 2014,

gravity is even visible, in the form of gravitational waves – shudders in space-time that are the aftershocks of a

seismic event of cosmic proportions: the birth of the universe. Some leading scientists think that if this

discovery holds up, it will go down as one of the greatest in the history of science. And yet, gravity remains an

illusion: the greatest ghost in the grandest machine.

Amy Herman is the founder and president of The Art of Perception, a New York-based organization that

conducts professional development courses to leaders in such world-renowned organizations as the FBI, CIA,

Scotland Yard, the Federal Reserve, the New York Police Department, Johnson & Johnson, and the Peace

Corps. Her mission is to show how acute observation and communication skills yield big rewards in job

performance, personal relationships, and health – and can have a profound effect on readers across all walks of

life. Herman has the rare ability to blend science and self-help; here, she uses provocative research and riveting

stories to impart some powerful life lessons. THINK AGAIN shows how success is a direct result of what

Leonardo da Vinci called saper vedere: knowing how to see, not just what is right in front of us, but to see what's

not there that should be, to see the positives and the negatives, to see the opportunity, the invention, the

upside, the warning signs, the quickest way, the way out, the win. Herman, who holds degrees in art history,

international affairs, and the law, uses examples ranging from the invention of Velcro to the early detection of

eye cancer in a toddler, from the door handles at Disneyland to the discovery of kidnap victim Jaycee Dugard.

RESILIENCE: Hard-Won Wisdom for Living a Better Life (nonfiction)

World rights

From the author of the bestselling The Heart and the Fist: The Making of a Navy SEAL, comes a book of

inspiration and wisdom the reader can draw on when life’s challenges and obstacles seem insurmountable.

Pain can break us or make us wiser; suffering can destroy us or make us stronger; fear can cripple us, or it can

make us more courageous: it is resilience that makes the difference. Resilience is the virtue of adapting to

hardship to become wiser and stronger. Some people are naturally resilient, but those who aren’t can build

resilience in their lives and in their families, communities, companies, and schools by making the right choices

in thought, action, and spirit. Resilience draws from a deep well of wisdom that readers can use on their own

journeys through hardship to strength, wisdom, and joy. Written in a friendly, conversational style, the book

takes the form of a set of letters written by Greitens to a close friend and former colleague.

Written with veteran surfing journalist Bob Yehling, the book chronicles Marzo’s rise to the top of the pro

tremendous social obstacle, when Clay is in the water – and he can go for up to eight hours in a single surfing

session -- the Asperger’s is a huge asset. He might forget where he put his wallet or keys, but he can

remember every wave he has ever surfed.

SONIC BOOM: How Sound Transforms the Way We Think, Feel, and Buy (business)

World rights (except Japanese rights, controlled by Lynn Johnston)

From horror movie scores to national anthems to the crunchy sound of potato chips, sound and music greatly

impact how we feel about our lives and the messages and products we encounter every day. And you don’t

need to be a musician or a composer to harness the power of sound. Joel Beckerman explains how companies,

brands, and individuals can strategically use sound to get to the core of their mission, influence how they’re

perceived by their audiences, and gain a competitive advantage. The key to these sonic strategies involves

creating “boom moments” — transcendent instants when sound connects with a listener’s emotional core.

Beckerman draws on numerous examples, including the way Disney parks score every second of their guests’

experience and how the sound of a special edition Mustang’s engine is designed to make drivers feel like

action-movie heroes. Joel Beckerman is the Founder and Lead Composer of Man Made Music. His company

has worked with global giants (Disney, Mercedes, AT&T, Virgin), lifestyle brands (Lipton Brisk, Moet &

Chandon, Scion), and television networks (NBC, CBS, ABC, Showtime, HBO, FOX, Discovery, FX, History

Channel, A&E, HGTV, Cooking Channel, ESPN). Tyler Gray is editorial director of digital for Fast Company, a

business magazine focused on technology, business, and design.

their lives. Acutely observed, Falling from Horses charts what was to be a glittering year in the movie business

Gloss weaves a remarkable tale of humans and horses, hope and heartbreak.

THE NAZIS NEXT DOOR: How America Became a Safe Haven for Hitler’s Men (nonfiction)

World Rights

It is well known that the U.S. gave asylum to key Nazi scientists after World War II, along with some less

famous perpetrators who managed to sneak into the country and were eventually exposed by Nazi hunters.

Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times investigative reporter Eric Lichtblau, who interviewed dozens of

former agents from the OSS, CIA, and FBI, learned what has been covered up for decades: those agencies

brought in thousands of former Nazis as possible assets against America’s new Cold War enemies. When the

Justice Department finally investigated and learned the truth, however, the results were classified and buried.

Using the dramatic story of one former perpetrator who settled in New Jersey, conned the CIA into hiring him,

and then begged for the agency’s support when his wartime identity emerged, Lichtblau reveals the full,

shocking story of how America became a refuge for hundreds of postwar Nazis.

reclusive, cranky older woman who spends hours talking through a microphone to rescued dogs, helping

them acclimate to human kindness by reading them Black Beauty and books by Beatrix Potter. And there is a

THE PATRON SAINT OF UGLY (fiction)

World rights

Born in Sweetwater, West Virginia, with flaming red hair and a map of the world rendered in port-wine stains

on every surface of her body, Garnet Ferrari is used to being an outcast. With her sharp tongue, she has always

been able to defend herself against bullies and aggressors, but she finds she is less adept at fending off the

pilgrims who are flocking to her home, convinced that she is Saint Garnet, healer of skin ailments and maker

of miracles. Her grandmother believes that Garnet’s mystical gift can be traced back to the family’s origins in

Sicily, and now the Vatican has sent an emissary to Sweetwater to investigate the claim. Garnet, who does not

see herself as a saint at all, learns that the line between reality and myth is always blurred, and that the aspects

of ourselves we are most ashamed of can prove to be the source of our greatest strength, even our salvation. As

in Jeffrey Eugenides’ MIDDLESEX, part of the charm of this novel derives from the author’s lively treatment

of the history and customs of an immigrant group. Manilla draws an empathetic, indelible, and even inspiring

portrait of a young woman with a remarkable ability to accept herself as she is.

examines this dangerous sport, in which competitors swim to depths of 300 feet or more without any oxygen,

as the jumping-off point for a book about the secrets now emerging from the deep sea, and the intrepid group

of people who are uncovering those secrets. The book will descend from the ocean’s surface to its deepest

point, stopping at various depths along the way to explore the sea creatures and plants that inhabit this world,

such as “telepathic” corals that bloom at the same time, even hundreds of miles apart; sharks that swim in

perfectly straight lines through pitch blackness; octopuses that thrive in 700-degree water; and sperm whales

that routinely dive 10,000 feet to feed on giant squid. It will also look at James Cameron’s singular

accomplishment, his success in reaching the bottom of the seven-mile-deep Marianas Trench. Nestor himself is

learning to freedive, not to compete but to confirm for himself that all humans have a set of reflexes that enable

them to be submerged underwater far longer and deeper than they could have imagined.

Olopade, Dayo

BRIGHT CONTINENT (nonfiction)

World rights

Dayo Olopade, a Nigerian-American journalist, has been struggling for years to reconcile the usual image of a

warring, impoverished Africa with the Africa she’s known since childhood: resilient and joyful, a continent of

innovators and impassioned community leaders. It’s a land of hustle and complex connections, of bending the

rules when the rules themselves are broken. Olopade spent two years traveling the continent, and everywhere

she saw the drive for growth in business and technology and the push to develop better programs for families,

children, and the land. She believes that Africa’s model of doing more with less—of working around corrupt

and dysfunctional systems to establish effective networks—can be a powerful model for the rest of the world.

As institutions like politics, currency, education, and health care break down in the U.S. and in the rest of the

developed world, there is a great deal to be learned from those who have managed to survive and even thrive

in the face of adversity and chaos. Olopade argues that the answers to increasingly globalized challenges can

be found by examining the tools Africans are using to solve these problems for themselves. Olopade’s writing

has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, and The Nation. She has been a UN

Foundation Journalism Fellow and is currently a law and media scholar at Yale.

BEETHOVEN: Anguish and Triumph (biography)

This distinguished biography was published in September 2014 to superlative reviews in both the U.S. (where

he was by far the most famous composer of his time and the creator of some of the most iconic music ever

written. He was so widely celebrated that over 10,000 people attended his funeral. Jan Swafford’s biographies

of Charles Ives (which won a PEN award and was nominated for a National Book Critics Circle award) and

Johannes Brahms have established him as a superb music historian. This is the first new biography of

Beethoven in more than ten years, and Swafford brings his character vividly to life. He tracks his subject from

his birthplace in Bonn, then a corner of Germany, to Vienna, then the capital of European music, where

Beethoven built his career despite critical rejection, crippling ill health, romantic failure, and his ever-

encroaching deafness. Throughout, Swafford provides insightful readings of Beethoven’s key works.
