In 1999, when Tom O’Neill was assigned a magazine piece about the 30th anniversary of the Manson murders, he worried there was nothing new to say. Weren’t the facts indisputable? Charles Manson had ordered his teenage followers to commit seven brutal murders, and in his thrall, they’d gladly complied. But when O’Neill began reporting the story, he kept finding holes in the prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi’s narrative, long enshrined in the best-selling Helter Skelter. Before long, O’Neill had questions about everything from the motive to the manhunt.

In Hatchet Man, former federal prosecutor Elie Honig uncovers Barr’s unprecedented abuse of power as Attorney General and the lasting structural damage done to the Justice Department. Honig uses his own experience as a prosecutor at DOJ to show how, as America’s top law enforcement official, Barr repeatedly violated the Department’s written rules, and those vital, unwritten norms and principles that comprise the “prosecutor’s code”.

This should be a text book used in school. Has interesting insights into the Justice Department and the code of conduct followed by “real” lawyers.

Writing fast is the most important skill you can develop as a writer. While it seems hard to hit high word counts, the secrets are easier than you think. In this writer's guide, prolific author M. L. Ronn pulls back the curtain on the process that he uses to write six to eight novels a year. He has kept this pace while juggling responsibilities as a husband, father, manager at a Fortune 100 company, and a law school student. The result is a catalog of over 40 books and counting.

I'm Simon Haynes, and I've been writing and publishing novels and short fiction for almost 20 years. This guide contains everything I've learned about writing a novel, both as an indie and as a trade-published author. Maybe you want to write a novel which has been on your mind for years. You don't care how long it takes, you just want to see it through to the end. Or maybe you see yourself as a career novelist - there's a real challenge - and you want to write books quickly and efficiently. I've done both, and I cover both approaches in How to Write a Novel.

From West Side Story in 1957 to Road Show in 2008, the musicals of Stephen Sondheim and his collaborators have challenged the conventions of American musical theater and expanded the possibilities of what musical plays can do, how they work, and what they mean.

Written by an academic in academic slang
Revisado: 03-22-20
I love the musicals of Stephen Sondheim. I was hoping for a biography of the artist and his work. I got an autopsy that uses every word in the thesaurus to analyze what musicals and what music really means within some objective cultural sense blah blah blah. This book goes on like that forever.
The book is a bit like listening to a NASA engineer talking about the interpersonal impact of the biological hormonal sensation known as "love". (Please stop!)
Listening to it I felt like saying, "just climb down from your ivory tower and tell us the story of Sondheim and his work!"
Someday someone will write a book about Stephen Sondheim, they will interview his friends and fellow artists they will interview his producers and performers who worked with him. They will write about Sondheim's philosophy and his inspiration behind his many great works.
But this isn't that book.
