Synopsis

Step away from the noise of ordinary life and discover Thoreau's timeless reflections on nature, simplicity, and self-reliance.

Henry David Thoreau's Walden chronicles his experience of living simply in a small cabin near Walden Pond while reflecting on society, work, nature, individuality, and the meaning of a purposeful life.

Through observations of the natural world and thoughtful discussions of everyday existence, Thoreau questions materialism and encourages readers to reconsider their relationship with time, possessions, society, and nature.

Blending memoir, philosophy, nature writing, and social commentary, Walden remains an influential work for readers seeking a deeper understanding of simple living and personal independence.

Rediscover the quiet wisdom of nature and explore Thoreau's enduring vision of a simpler, more deliberate life.

    What happens after everything ends? 
     
    On a heavy Chicago afternoon in June, with the world locked away by COVID quarantines, Gunnar Branson stood alone outside a garage. He watched his wife, college-aged daughter, and two cats drive away. A thirty-year marriage ended as he stood in the alley. Dark thunderheads loomed overhead, alternating with bursts of hot sun. A light breeze fluttered the linden tree. Story over. 
     
    But maybe not. 
     
    There are answers to be found in the past. This is the story of a boy growing up in Alaska and an older man waking up to the best part of his life. The story is not over. The world does not have to end. Not yet, anyway. 
     
    What happens when you chase the lights?

    From humble beginnings in the rural South to becoming a Morehead-Cain scholar at UNC-Chapel Hill, Antonio McBroom was always determined to achieve his C.E.O. dream of Creating Extra • Ordinary life. The only thing he didn’t expect was that a minimum wage ice cream scooping job would lead him there. 
    Presented with a chance to franchise his own Ben & Jerry’s, McBroom “scooped his way” to the top before co-founding his company, Primo Partners, in 2008. Within 15 years, he grew a single scoop shop from $200K per year to a vast enterprise that drives over $20 million annually. Primo now runs 25+ businesses with McBroom at the helm, including Starbucks cafés, coaching services and real estate development. 
    Through his multi-unit, multi-brand and multi-state empire, McBroom Created the Extra • Ordinary life he dreamed of, transforming his family and community in the process. In The Self•ish Servant, a hybrid memoir and business guide, McBroom shares the story behind his aspirational ascent. 
    Based on his own seven principles—Tenacity, Self-Awareness, Passion, Focus, Communi-Keys, Boss Time and Gratitude—The Self•ish Servant teaches other entrepreneurs and leaders-of-tomorrow to organize their impact through revolutionary service. 
    At its heart is McBroom’s counterintuitive secret to success: being “self•ish” is what helps us serve others even better. 
    With lessons on franchising, retail, real estate development, public speaking, servant leadership and everything in between, The Self•ish Servant establishes McBroom as a visionary new voice in business—and a one-stop-shop for all things needed to create an extraordinary life.

    The dark story behind the bright lights of Tinseltown 
     
    From the outside, Hollywood starlet Lana Turner seemed to have it all—a thriving film career, a beautiful daughter, and the kind of fame and fortune that most people could only dream of. But when the famous femme fatale began dating mobster Johnny Stompanato, thug for the infamous West Coast mob boss Mickey Cohen, her personal life became violent and unpredictable. Lana’s teenage daughter, Cheryl, watched her beloved mother’s life deteriorate as Stompanato’s intense jealousy took over. Eventually, the physical and emotional abuse became too much to bear, and Lana attempted to break it off with Johnny—with disastrous consequences. The details of what happened that fateful night remain foggy, but it ended in a series of frantic phone calls and Stompanato dead on Lana’s bedroom floor, with Cheryl claiming to have plunged a knife into his abdomen in an attempt to protect her mother. The subsequent investigation made for the biggest headlines of the year, its drama eclipsing every Hollywood movie. 
     
    New York Times bestselling author Casey Sherman pulls back Tinseltown’s velvet curtain to reveal the dark underbelly of celebrity, rife with toxic masculinity and casual violence against women, and tells the story of Lana Turner and her daughter, who finally stood up to the abuse that plagued their family for years. A Murder in Hollywood transports us back to the golden age of film and illuminates one of the twentieth century’s most notorious true crime tales. 
     
    “A must-read for fans of true crime and Hollywood history, A Murder in Hollywood never disappoints! Casey Sherman deftly serves just the right mix of glamour, glitz, and grit to keep the reader turning pages. It’s a stunner from start to finish.”—Kristin Dilley, cohost of the Mind over Murder podcast

    Rusty Egan, co-founder of Visage and resident DJ at London's iconic Blitz Club, helped define the New Romantic music movement. His autobiography captures the birth of British electronic music, 1980s London nightlife, and collaborations with Midge Ure, Steve Strange, and other pioneers.
    Rusty Egan is one of the most iconic and influential figures in the electronic music industry. His career began in the music industry as a runner at DJM studios, followed by a stint at WEA Records. Rusty collaborated with former Sex Pistols member Glen Matlock, alongside Steve New and Midge Ure, to establish the new wave band Rich Kids. Their debut album, Ghosts of Princes in Towers, released in 1978, achieved both critical acclaim and commercial success. During the Rich Kids tours, Rusty met Steve Strange. This encounter led to Rusty's concept for a club night at Billy's, a Soho venue, catering to fashionable punks and showcasing the music they were passionate about. In 1979, they moved their club night to the Blitz in Covent Garden. As the resident DJ at the Blitz, Rusty played a pivotal role in introducing British, German, and Japanese electronica to the British club scene, essentially curating the soundtrack for the burgeoning New Romantic movement.
    Rusty Egan was instrumental in the formation of the band Visage with Midge Ure. Steve Strange joined them as the frontman (face and voice), and the lineup was completed by Billy Currie on keyboards, along with John McGeoch (guitar), Dave Formula (keyboards), and Barry Adamson (bass), all from the band MAGAZINE.
    Beyond his band work Rusty co-founded the incredibly popular Camden Palace nightclub in London with Steve Strange, where he continued to champion and shape the development of electronica in the UK. He also established Metropolis Music, a publishing and production company, allowing him to create music as well as perform it.
    In more recent news, Rusty released his album Welcome To The Dancefloor in 2017, which featured collaborations with Midge Ure, Tony Hadley, and Peter Hook. Rusty Egan is still regularly DJing and in October 2025 will be releasing his new album Romantic to coincide with this autobiography and the Design Museum's Blitz Club Exhibition centred of course, around Rusty and the Blitz Kids.
