  In this high-security prison, escape is not an option for those who value their lives. The facility is fortified with cutting-edge technology and relentless security measures, designed to ensure that no one can breach its walls. Even if an inmate manages to find a way out, the harsh environment and constant surveillance beyond the perimeter make survival impossible. This is a place where hope of freedom is extinguished, and the only certainty is that anyone who dares to escape will not survive. The prison's reputation for absolute containment and its unforgiving surroundings serve as a stark warning: any attempt at freedom is a perilous journey with no promise of life beyond these walls.

  “Ghetto Klown is autobiographical dynamite—this is Leguizamo at his scathing, honest, moving, comedic best. Among the finest portraits of an artist as a young wounded talented man as I’ve read.” (Junot Díaz) 
    
  “My man Johnny Legs has done it again … DOPENESS.” (Spike Lee)  
    
  In Ghetto Klown, celebrated performer John Leguizamo lays bare his early years in blue-collar Queens, his salvation through acting and writing, and his colorful career trajectory. He brings us onto the sets of his films opposite stars such as Al Pacino and Patrick Swayze and with directors such as Baz Luhrmann and Brian De Palma, while also opening up about his offstage life in love and marriage. In this candid memoir, Leguizamo offers a strong message of moving beyond self-doubt—and beyond the doubters—to claim some happiness.  
    
  Originally staged on Broadway in 2011, Ghetto Klown won Leguizamo Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards before being adapted into an HBO special. Now Leguizamo shares his life story in this vibrant, funny, and moving adaptation.

  Heart to Heart - A Conversation...

  From His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Mutt’s cartoonist and award-winning author Patrick McDonnell comes a powerful and timely gem of a book on how to heal our relationship with the planet and each other. 
  At the Dalai Lama’s residence in Dharamsala, India, an unusual visitor has arrived. His Holiness interrupts his morning meditation to greet a troubled Giant Panda who has travelled many miles to see him. Welcoming him as a friend, His Holiness invites the Panda on a walk through a cedar forest. There in the shadow of the Himalayas, surrounded by beauty, they discuss matters great and small . . . 
  With a galvanizing message about the future of our planet, Heart to Heart calls for a Compassionate Revolution, reminding us that “we are indeed all members of a single family, sharing one little house.” Told with whimsy, wisdom, and warmth, this beautiful book is deceptively simple in its approach and all the more powerful for it, as it elegantly and decisively conveys a message of joy, hope and change. 
  “There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called Yesterday, and one is called Tomorrow.”
