  Exploding on the music scene in the early 1970s, the rock group KISS combined raw energy with theatrical showmanship—not to mention face painting! Founding member Gene Simmons—an outrageous star whose superlong tongue, legendary sexual exploits, and demonic makeup have made him a rock icon—recounts his own story as well as the history of the band. In KISS and Make-Up, Simmons shares a wild, shocking, and unbelievable tale about an immigrant boy from Israel who studied to be a rabbi but was saved by rock and roll and became one of the most notorious rock stars in the world.
  
  In his irreverent voice, Gene talks about the girls (more than 4,000!); his bond with KISS cofounder Paul Stanley; the struggles he and Paul had with Ace Frehley and Peter Criss, and the untimely death of Eric Carr. He also details his love life, including stories about his relationships with Cher, Diana Ross, and Shannon Tweed—the mother of his son and daughter and companion for almost forty years. And, of course, Simmons expresses his enormous love and affection for the people who put him there in the first place—the KISS Army and the ever-loyal KISS fans around the world!

  Growing up in the Polish village of Tarnogrod on the fringes of a deep pine forest, Mala Szorer had the happiest childhood she could have hoped for. But at the age of twelve, as the German invasion begins, her beloved village becomes a ghetto, and her family and friends are reduced to starvation. So she takes matters into her own hands and bravely removes her yellow star so she can sneak out to the surrounding villages to barter for food. It is on her way back that she sees her loved ones rounded up for deportation and receives a smuggled letter from her sister warning her to stay away. In order to survive, she walks away from everything she holds dear to live by herself in the forest, hiding not just from the Nazis but from hostile villagers as well. She is followed by a stray cat who stays with her—and seems to come to her rescue time and time again. Malach the cat becomes her family, her only respite from painful loneliness, her guide, and a reminder to stay hopeful even when faced with unfathomable darkness. Allowing listeners to see the war through the innocence of a child's eyes, Mala's Cat is a powerful and unique addition to the Holocaust canon.
