From Mistakes to Meaning: Owning Your Past So It Doesn't Own You
NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A powerful examination of the nature of mistakes, why we make them, the hidden ways they can haunt us, and how surfacing and reckoning with them can help us lead to fuller, more satisfying lives by two powerhouse authors with high-profile, executive experience and vast networks, who made public, life-altering mistakes. While very few people start enormous companies or discover lifesaving medical cures, we all make mistakes. Yet there are lots of books about successful entrepreneurs, massive failures, and compelling scientific discoveries, and no book that helps us understand how our personalities drive mistakes and how mistakes shape our lives. Longtime friends Michael Lynton and Joshua L. Steiner made mistakes that shaped their careers and lives, but it wasn't until the isolation of the pandemic that they began to open up to each other about them. When Lynton was the CEO of Sony Entertainment, he greenlit the film that led to the infamous North Korean hack; meanwhile, a private diary Steiner had kept as Chief of Staff at the Treasury Department became a focal point in the Clinton Whitewater scandal. As their conversation deepened, they searched for a book to guide their exploration, they came up empty. So they set out to write one themselves. Through a revealing examination of their own stories and candid interviews with influential figures such as Karol Mason, Joanna Coles, and Malcolm Gladwell along with people from all walks of life, the authors unveil the hidden dimensions of mistakes and the universal struggle to move beyond them. Working with Alison Papadakis, Director of Clinical Psychological Studies at Johns Hopkins, they ground their observations in relevant research and unpack the difference between failures and mistakes, the stages of mistakes, and how it's possible to break the patterns that lead to misunderstandings and shame. From Mistakes to Meaning is an essential and fascinating read, combining compelling narrative and actionable advice, showing that mistakes can be used as portals for personal growth instead of lifelong burdens. -

Breathing Room: Poems of Rest and Retreat
James Crews' newest poetry collection gives readers permission to find the pause in every moment and cultivate healing from a sense of everyday awe for nature, each other, and our fractured world. With the world returning to its old, unsustainable pace (and expecting us to return with it), we all must learn how to make time to slow down, to pause, and to appreciate the beauty around us. In this inspiring collection of poems, award-winning poet and mindfulness educator James Crews models how the smallest moments of deep attention can also be the most joyful and healing. Each poem offers gentle wisdom and comfort, providing life-changing insights that will resonate long after the last page. There should be a room in every house or office building set aside strictly for breathing. No speaking allowed, no phones, clocks, or other devices may be brought inside. Let the walls be empty and white, only potted ferns stirring near windows thrown open to a night-breeze bearing the scents of jasmine and lilac. You can count if you like until your heartbeat slows to its own natural pace, and your mind's as blank as a page in the back of a book. If someone asks for directions, say it's the room at the end of the hall with nothing else in it but a few plants and all the air you can breathe. AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR: James Crews is an award-winning poet and writer. His work has been awarded the Prairie Schooner Prize and Cowles Prize. He has also been featured in The New York Times Magazine, The New Republic, Ploughshares, and The Sun Magazine. UNIVERSAL THEMES: Crews's poems are accessible and relatable, exploring the universal experiences of rest, reflection, and renewal. ENCOURAGES MINDFULNESS: Breathing Room emphasizes the importance of slowing down and cultivating peace amid life's chaos. THOUGHTFUL GIFT: A gorgeous illustrated hardcover case, satin ribbon marker, and spot illustrations throughout make this a giftable collector's item that will be treasured for decades. -
Kawase Hasui: Capturing the Soul of Japan
Discover the timeless beauty of Kawase Hasui, the master of shin hanga, in this stunning new book, featuring his most breathtaking woodblock prints and expert insights into his legacy. Kawase Hasui (1883-1957) was one of the most important and prolific Japanese printmakers of the 20th century. He was one of the main creators of the shin hanga ('new prints') movement, whose artists depicted traditional subjects in a style influenced by Western painting. Shin hanga prints are harmoniously balanced designs, printed on the highest quality paper using the finest pigments, and in small editions. They are the fruit of a traditional yet successful collaboration between artist, publisher, block cutter and printer and have become increasingly popular among collectors of Japanese prints in the last decade. Hasui began his artistic career studying Japanese painting. However, soon after seeing Shinsui's Eight Views of Lake Biwa series, Hasui turned to woodblock printing in 1919. Shozaburo Watanabe was the first to recognize his artistic genius, and Hasui Kawase soon became the most popular artist working for this prestigious publisher. He produced nearly a thousand woodcuts in a career that spanned almost forty years. Towards the end of his life, the Japanese government recognized him as a 'Living National Treasure' for his contribution to Japanese culture.Sold out -
