Debra Monroe talks honestly about social class jumping in Salon.com

Here’s a great way to start your morning — a new essay by Debra Monroe about social class “jumping” and how strangely and comically lonely it can be. If you find this essay as painfully honest, witty, and true as we do, you’ll love her memoir, MY UNSENTIMENTAL EDUCATION, which the University of Georgia Press will publish on October 1, 2015 (you can even pre-order it now!). In the words of Rosellen Brown, Debra’s memoir “raises a dozen potent questions about what has changed for a generation of women not so much disillusioned but unillusioned about what it means to ‘live like a man.’”

Foreword Reviews loves Alan Lelchuk’s Breaking Ground

Alan Lelchuk’s BREAKING GROUND: How Jackie Robinson Changed Brooklyn will be on sale September 15th.  Foreword Reviews just gave it a wonderful review.

The reviewer, Melissa Wuske, writes, “Lelchuk sets the bar high for Robinson’s impact—’Robinson did something for and through baseball that no other great player had ever done’—but he calmly proves every bold statement through his narrative research.”  She goes on to explain that, “Many are familiar with Robinson’s baseball career and cultural impact, but Lelchuk gives insight into the hope Robinson brought specifically to Brooklyn, and particularly to its immigrant families.”
