Macksey was a celebrated Johns Hopkins University professor whose affiliation with the university spanned six and a half decades. A legendary figure not only in his own fields of critical theory, comparative literature, and film studies but across all the humanities, Macksey possessed enormous intellectual capacity and a deeply insightful human nature. He was a man who read and wrote in six languages, was instrumental in launching a new era in structuralist thought in America, maintained a personal library containing a staggering collection of books and manuscripts, inspired generations of students to follow him to the thorniest heights of the human intellect, and penned or edited dozens of volumes of scholarly works, fiction, poetry, and translation." - Johns Hopkins University.

Lauren Peters Collaer (illustrator). New York: Riverhead Books:, 2024. First printing, Hardcover, New in dust jacket, 306 pp. Cover artwork by: Lauren Peters Collaer "September 1913. A young Pole suffering from tuberculosis arrives at Wilhelm Opitz's Guesthouse for Gentlemen in the village of Görbersdorf, a health resort in the Silesian mountains. Every evening the residents gather to imbibe the hallucinogenic local liqueur and debate the great issues of the day: Monarchy or democracy? Do devils exist? Are women born inferior? War or peace? Meanwhile, disturbing things are happening in the guesthouse and the surrounding hills. Someone - or something - seems to be watching, attempting to infiltrate this cloistered world. Little does the newcomer realize, as he tries to unravel both the truths within himself and the mystery of the sinister forces beyond, that they have already chosen their next target."

"I've been waiting for the right person to write the definitive biography of Janis Joplin! All fans should be grateful it's finally here." - Rosanne Cash, four-time Grammy Award winner. "A rich, interestng portrayal of Janis. George-Warren has an engaging writing style, and I was impressed by the breadth of her new interviews and information." - Laura Joplin, sister of Janis Joplin. "Empathetic and thrilling. Like an investigative reporter, George-Warren has tracked down every detail of Janis's young life and influences, and with loving care she has given us rare insight into this genius musician." - Kate Pierson, The B-52s. "By far and away the most comprehensive and best-researched Joplin biography. It's an extraordinary life, set to a legendary rock death arc, but the triumph of Janis is that George-Warren understands that the evolution of Joplin's artistry is what matters most. Janis blossoms as she finds her voice onstage, and her act becomes something of great beauty. So too does George-Warren's book." - Charles R. Cross, New York Times bestselling author of Room Full of Mirrors: A Biography of Jimi Hendrix. "Janis Joplin has passed into legend as an impassioned soul doomed by the pain that produced one of the most extraordinary voices in the history of rock 'n' roll. But this intimate new biography shows a woman in command, one who won her place in history by never compromising who she was and how she wanted to express herself. Joplin's first transgressive act was to be a white girl with an early passion for the blues. She stood out in her conservative Texas oil town as a tomboy who was intellectually curious and artistic, drawing the scorn of her peers for her embrace of the Beats and her progressive views. So many women of her era used beauty, privilege, or marriage to get a foothold in life, but Janis decided early on to use the truth of her emotions. Her success was no accident, and this is the story of her very intentional life. Like many groundbreaking artists, she was complicated: marked by her father's deep cosmic blues but determined to overcome them, a sexually shy teenager who later pushed the boundaries of sexuality, a lover who wanted to marry and settle down but couldn't or wouldn't. She was a musician who stumbled over her talent but then became determined to perfect it, a Texan who yearned to flee Texas but could never quite get away, even after becoming the queen of counter-cultural San Francisco. Written by one of the most highly regarded chroniclers of American music history, and based on unprecedented access to Janis Joplin's family, friends, bandmates, personal archives, and long lost interviews, Janis is a powerful portrait of an American pioneer - the ultimate woman who persisted, and who is finally getting her due." - from the inner front jacket flap.
