INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | #1 SUNDAY TIMES (UK) BESTSELLER | 2025 Housatonic Book Award Finalist "The must-read book of the summer" (Megyn Kelly) from New York Times bestseller Maureen Callahan: a "harrowing, incendiary" expose of the real Kennedy Cursethe familys generations-long legacy of misogyny, murder, and mayhem (Karen Abbott). The Kennedy name has long been synonymous with wealth, power, glamor, andabove all elseintegrity. But this carefully constructed veneer hides a dark truth: the pattern of Kennedy men physically and psychologically abusing women and girls, leaving a trail of ruin and death in each generations wake. Through decades of scandal after scandalfrom sexual assaults to reputational slander, suicides to manslaughterthe family and their defenders have kept the Kennedy brand intact. Now, in Ask Not, bestselling author and journalist Maureen Callahan reveals the Kennedys hidden history of violence and exploitation, laying bare their unrepentant sexism and rampant depravity while also restoring these women and girls to their rightful place at the center of the dynastys story: from Jacqueline Onassis and Marilyn Monroe to Carolyn Bessette, Martha Moxley, Mary Jo Kopechne, Rosemary Kennedy, and many others whose names arent nearly as well known but should be. Drawing on years of explosive reportage and written in electric prose, Ask Not is a long-overdue reckoning with this fabled family and a consequential part of American history that is still very much with us. At long last, Callahan redirects the spotlight to the women in the Kennedys orbit, paying homage to those who freed themselves and giving voice to those who, through no fault of their own, could not.One of Town & Countrys Must-Read Books of Summer 2024

Com a expertise da jornalista Maureen Callahan, Champagne Supernovas nos leva de volta aos anos 90, quando modelos brilhantes deram lugar a verdadeiras lendas, o que era considerado underground e alternativo desfilava nas principais passarelas mainstream, e a moda virou um cenario rico, alimentado pelas mentes mais brilhantes do mundo artistico e cultural. Repleto de historias divertidas e surpreendentes dos mais celebrados nomes, como os designers Anna Sui e Isaac Mizrahi, as celebridades Kim Gordon, do Sonic Youth, Jane Pratt, da revista Sassy, e um grande elenco de supermodelos, estilistas, editores, fotografos e club kids, Champagne Supernovas e, ao mesmo tempo, um relato vibrante sobre uma epoca e tambem um estudo revelador dos bastidores, trazendo a tona fatos da vida particular de Moss e ate do suicidio de McQueen. Em uma mistura elegante de arte, decadence e genialidade que definiram uma era, este e um panorama legitimo de uma ruptura cultural onde losers e freaks quebraram as regras e emergiram no mundo pop como deuses da moda, mudando drasticamente a forma como entendemos o mundo.

Ada Calhoun, author of St. Marks Is DeadTed Bundy. John Wayne Gacy. Jeffrey Dahmer. The names of notorious serial killers are usually well-known; they echo in the news and in public consciousness. But most people have never heard of Israel Keyes, one of the most ambitious and terrifying serial killers in modern history. The FBI considered his behavior unprecedented. Described by a prosecutor as "a force of pure evil," Keyes was a predator who struck all over the United States. He buried "kill kits"--cash, weapons, and body-disposal tools--in remote locations across the country. Over the course of fourteen years, Keyes would fly to a city, rent a car, and drive thousands of miles in order to use his kits. He would break into a strangers house, abduct his victims in broad daylight, and kill and dispose of them in mere hours. And then he would return home to Alaska, resuming life as a quiet, reliable construction worker devoted to his only daughter.When journalist Maureen Callahan first heard about Israel Keyes in 2012, she was captivated by how a killer of this magnitude could go undetected by law enforcement for over a decade. And so began a project that consumed her for the next several years--uncovering the true story behind how the FBI ultimately caught Israel Keyes, and trying to understand what it means for a killer like Keyes to exist. A killer who left a path of monstrous, randomly committed crimes in his wake--many of which remain unsolved to this day.American Predator is the ambitious culmination of years of interviews with key figures in law enforcement and in Keyess life, and research uncovered from classified FBI files. Callahan takes us on a journey into the chilling, nightmarish mind of a relentless killer, and to the limitations of traditional law enforcement.
