A riotously funny, emotionally raw New York Times bestselling novel about love, marriage, divorce, family, and the ties that bind—whether we like it or not. The death of Judd Foxman’s father marks the first time that the entire Foxman clan has congregated in years. There is, however, one conspicuous absence: Judd's wife, Jen, whose affair with his radio- shock-jock boss has recently become painfully public. Simultaneously mourning the demise of his father and his marriage, Judd joins his dysfunctional family as they reluctantly sit shiva and spend seven days and nights under the same roof. The week quickly spins out of control as longstanding grudges resurface, secrets are revealed and old passions are reawakened. Then Jen delivers the clincher: she's pregnant... “Often sidesplitting, mostly heartbreaking...[Tropper is] a more sincere, insightful version of Nick Hornby, that other master of male psyche.”—USA Today NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING JASON BATEMAN, TINA FEY, JANE FONDA, AND ADAM DRIVER

Demonic possession or psychic break? One of Esquire's Top 50 horror novels of all time delves deep into the terrifying consequences of losing control. "A perfect horror novel."—Paul Tremblay, author of The Cabin at the End of the World A recurrent, unidentifiable noise in her apartment. A memo to her boss that's replaced by obscene insults. Amanda—a successful architect in a happy marriage—finds her life going off kilter by degrees. She starts smoking again, and one night for no reason, without even the knowledge that she's doing it, she burns her husband with a cigarette. At night she dreams of a beautiful woman with pointed teeth on the shore of a blood-red sea. The new voice in Amanda's head, the one that tells her to steal things and talk to strange men in bars, is strange and frightening, and Amanda struggles to wrest back control of her life. A book on demon possession suggests that the figure on the shore could be the demon Naamah, known to scholars of the Kabbalah as the second wife of Adam, who stole into his dreams and tricked him into fathering her child. Whatever the case, as the violence of her erratic behavior increases, Amanda knows that she must act to put her life right, or see it destroyed. This new edition of the cult classic features a brand new post-script by the author and an "Are You Possessed?" questionnaire.

Bloomsbury presents Cult Classic written and read by Sloane Crosley.

I couldn't stop reading it' NICK HORNBY 'Cult Classic makes an uproarious time of romantic carnage' RAVEN LEILANI 'A witty and fantastical story of dating and experimental psychology in New York City' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY (starred review) One night in New York City's Chinatown, Lola is at a dinner with former colleagues when she excuses herself to buy a pack of cigarettes. On her way back, she runs into a former boyfriend. The next night, she runs into another ex. And then… another. The city has become awash with ghosts of heartbreaks past. What might have passed for coincidence becomes something far stranger when the recently engaged Lola must contend not only with the viability of her current relationship, but the fact that her best friend and her former boss – a magazine editor turned mystical guru – might have an unhealthy investment in its outcome. As memories of the past swirl and converge, Lola is forced to decide if she will surrender herself to the conspirings of one very contemporary cult. A smart, sharp and hugely entertaining tale of luck and love, Cult Classic asks: is it possible to have a happy ending in an age when the past is ever at your fingertips and sanity is for sale?

Beth Orton, die in den 90er Jahren durch ihre Zusammenarbeit mit William Orbit, Red Snapper und The Chemical Brothers zu erster Bekanntheit gelangte, bevor sie mit einer Reihe von hochgelobten und preisgekrönten Solo-Veröffentlichungen auf sich aufmerksam machen konnte, schlägt mit Weather Alive - ihrem ersten Album seit sechs Jahren - ein neues, spannendes Kapitel in ihrer nunmehr 30-jährigen Karriere auf und kehrt den Blick nach innen. Album Nummer sieben der englischen Singer-Songwriterin ist eine sensorische Erkundungsreise. Kein fertiges Meisterwerk, sondern eine Momentaufnahme, die von inneren Kämpfen zeugt, aber auch von Akzeptanz und Heilung. Und vielleicht auch die Antwort auf die Frage wie Springsteen's karges Meisterwerk Nebraska klingen würde, kämen Drums zum Einsatz und würde nicht der Boss sondern Solange singen. Oder würde man Ambient-Meisterwerke wie Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden oder David Sylvian's Brilliant Trees mit Alice Coltrane kreuzen und dem Gefühl, das Orton hatte, als sie die verstorbene Jazzgröße zum ersten Mal hörte. Auf Weather Alive findet sich die BRIT Award-Gewinnerin und zweimalige Mercury Prize-Nominierte, die man erst kürzlich auf ausgedehnter Tour im Vorprogramm von Alanis Morissette erleben konnte und die sich Bühne und Mikrofon schon mit Künstlern wie Patti Smith, Nick Cave, Sinead O'Connor, den Flaming Lips und Beck geteilt hat, zum ersten Mal auch in der Rolle der Produzentin wieder. 1.

METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES takes place in 1975 and sets in motion a series of events that culminate in the stunning plotlines of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN. GROUND ZEROES centers on Big Boss - legendary hero and mercenary - as he infiltrates a sprawling secret prison base called 'Camp Omega' in Cuba on a rescue mission. He soon finds himself alone behind enemy lines with a truly non-linear mission that showcases key advances to the series made possible by its use of the FOX Engine. Continuing the story of Big Boss, METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN is the series' largest and most ambitious edition to date, expanding upon themes and content seen in its predecessor: METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES. Set within huge open-world environments, METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN is brought to vivid life with realistic weather patterns and day/night cycles.

Similarly, a host of acclaimed METAL GEAR SOLID features return in hugely advanced forms, including expanded CQC (Close-Quarter Combat) skills, vastly improved enemy AI, online elements that complement the single player campaign, and an all-new version of METAL GEAR ONLINE, a competitive multiplayer mode, included within the main game, that is currently live, online and available for users to play. METAL GEAR ONLINE is built around a dedicated squad-based competitive multiplayer structure, which has been fully redesigned with the familiar gameplay and aesthetic styling of the acclaimed METAL GEAR SOLID series. The online element introduces Tactical Team Operations and features a 'class system' that more uniquely defines the strengths and abilities of player characters on the battlefield. Players can select from 3 distinct classes: Scout, Enforcer and Infiltrator.
