When Rex was outed the summer after he graduated high school, his father gave him a choice: he could stay at home, find a girlfriend and attend church twice a week, or he could be gay-and leave. Rex left, driving toward the only other gay man he knew and a toxic relationship that would ultimately leave him homeless and desperate on the streets of New Orleans.Here, Rex tells the story of his coming out and his father's rejection of his identity, navigating abuse and survival on the streets. Road Home is a devastating and incandescent reflection on Rex's hunger-for food, for love and for a place to call home-completing the trilogy of memoirs that began with the award-winning Free Lunch.

Claiming to come from Afghanistan, Ikbal and Idries Shah convinced spies, poets, orientalists, diplomats, occultists, hippies and even a prime minister that they held the keys to understanding the Muslim world. Gambling with the currency of cultural authenticity, father and son became master players of the great game of empire and its aftermath as their careers extended from colonial India and wartime Oxford to swinging London and literary New York. Empire's Son, Empire's Orphan unravels a quagmire of aliases and pseudonyms, fantastical pasts and self-aggrandising anecdotes, high stakes and bold schemes that painted the defining portrait of Afghanistan for almost a century. From George Orwell directing Muslim propaganda to Robert Graves translating a fake manuscript of Omar Khayyam and Doris Lessing supporting jihad, Nile Green tells the fascinating tale of how the world was beguiled by the dream of an Afghan Shangri-La that never existed.

Economist Glenn C. Loury is one of the most prominent public American intellectuals of our time: he's often radically opposed to the political mainstream and delights in upending what's expected of a Black public figure. But more so than the arguments themselves-on affirmative action, institutional racism, Trumpism-his public life has been characterised by fearlessness and a willingness to recalibrate strongly held and forcefully argued beliefs.Loury grew up on the south side of Chicago, earned a PhD in MIT's economics programme and became the first Black tenured professor of economics at Harvard at the age of thirty-three. He has been, at turns, a young father, a drug addict, an adulterer, a psychiatric patient, a born-again Christian, a lapsed born-again Christian, a Black Reaganite who has swung from the right to the left and back again. In Late Admissions, Loury examines what it means to chart a sense of self over the course of a tempestuous but well-considered, life.
