    Paperback. Condition: Good. NOTHING TO LAUGH ABOUT is a compilation of Larry Goodell's poems from 2015, Voice In The Round and poems from 2016, Comic Invasion with the poet's drawings integral to the poems. I was not a serious contender in the word-scalpel department nor did I fling my phonetics before the feet of the Kings of Academia. I was locked outside the gates with my feeble inaccuracies, my hodge-podge of innovation wondering why did it all seem so real. There was loneliness and beauty of hills, nature, rocks, arroyos. What wrote itself out of me under the ancient cottonwood and troublesome box elder was the form it took when there was no denial of the back of my head. The other side of everything spoke like a dance in the plaza. I could only come up with the set of my surroundings the set of nature, the set of my desk, the windows, the patio flagstones the volcanic vista which reflected my coming of age later than usual, the music and the dance of my youth formulating a 360 now - I could never be mono but plural as I was starved for affection and the warmth of companionship when it came and the teachers who broke through reality gave me a voice in the round. - Larry Goodell Mia Kirsi Stageberg: I have to tell you that I never knew the breadth, intensity and power of what you've been writing. . . . I'm not sure I've ever seen a more creative and just use of reasonable rage John Nichols: You get my vote as one of the great ones You got moxie, humor, politics, and you're crazy like a dancing Fox. Goodell, Lenore (illustrator).…

    Paperback. Condition: Good. As a Private Detective, James Don't Call Me Corky Corcoran has a lot in common with his adoptive hometown of Detroit. The past is brighter than the present; he's going nowhere fast, and he's running out of money. But things change when he starts to investigate Jonathan Wade's death. A childhood friend and longtime rival, Wade was the black sheep son of one of the oldest and wealthiest families who called the exclusive suburb of Grosse Pointe home. Each clue in the case dredges up yet another memory Corcoran has spent the past decade trying to drink into oblivion. It takes him back to Grosse Pointe, where he hasn't set foot for the past ten years, ever since Sara Jensen's death sent his career into a tailspin. Grosse Pointe looks the same, its quiet streets still lined with majestic homes, but behind those facades things aren't as they seem. Some of the best and the brightest families are hiding some secrets so dark, so destructive, that they are willing to do anything to keep them hidden. They try to buy him off, scare him off, and even try to kill him to keep Corcoran from discovering the truth, but as time goes by he realizes he can't quit because this case has become his road to justice, redemption, and even love. He'll solve this case, or die trying.…

    Hardback. Condition: Very Good. INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!NATIONAL BESTSELLERMost Anticipated Book by The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times A Next Big Idea Book Club Selection The New York Times Book Review Editor's ChoiceJeff Goodell's "masterful, bracing" (David Wallace-Wells) investigation exposes "through stellar reporting, artful storytelling and fascinating scientific explanations" (Naomi Klein) an explosive new understanding of heat and the impact that rising temperatures will have on our lives and on our planet. "Entertaining and thoroughly researched," (Al Gore), it will completely change the way you see the world, and despite its urgent themes, is injected with "eternal optimism" (Michael Mann) on how to combat one of the most important issues of our time. "When heat comes, it's invisible. It doesn't bend tree branches or blow hair across your face to let you know it's arrived. The sun feels like the barrel of a gun pointed at you." The world is waking up to a new reality: wildfires are now seasonal in California, the Northeast is getting less and less snow each winter, and the ice sheets in the Arctic and Antarctica are melting fast. Heat is the first order threat that drives all other impacts of the climate crisis. And as the temperature rises, it is revealing fault lines in our governments, our politics, our economy, and our values. The basic science is not complicated: Stop burning fossil fuels tomorrow, and the global temperature will stop rising tomorrow. Stop burning fossil fuels in 50 years, and the temperature will keep rising for 50 years, making parts of our planet virtually uninhabitable. It's up to us. The hotter it gets, the deeper and wider our fault lines will open. The Heat Will Kill You First is about the extreme ways in which our planet is already changing. It is about why spring is coming a few weeks earlier and fall is coming a few weeks later and the impact that will have on everything from our food supply to disease outbreaks. It is about what will happen to our lives and our communities when typical summer days in Chicago or Boston go from 90° F to 110°F. A heatwave, Goodell explains, is a predatory event- one that culls out the most vulnerable people. But that is changing. As heatwaves become more intense and more common, they will become more democratic. As an award-winning journalist who has been at the forefront of environmental journalism for decades, Goodell's new book may be his most provocative yet, explaining how extreme heat will dramatically change the world as we know it. Masterfully reported, mixing the latest scientific insight with on-the-ground storytelling, Jeff Goodell tackles the big questions and uncovers how extreme heat is a force beyond anything we have reckoned with before.…

    Hardback. Condition: Good. By century's end, hundreds of millions of people will be retreating from the world's shores. Nuclear reactors will be decommissioned. The greatest cities in human history, abandoned. This is the story of our rising seas. In a shocking cover story for Rolling Stone, Jeff Goodell predicted that within the lifetime of many of the readers of this book, Miami as we know it today will vanish. This is not a reckless hypothesis. From island nations to the world's major metropolises, our coasts will drown in the rising waters, which will soon inundate and transform our landscapes.
