Love, betrayal, petty larceny, and high fashion fuel this deliciously comic novel from the author of Fight Club and Survivor.
The fashion-model protagonist of Invisible Monsters has just about everything: a boyfriend, a career, a loyal best friend. But one day she's driving along the freeway when a sudden "accident" leaves her with half her face, no ability to speak, and next to no self-esteem.

Dancing monsters and prancing goblins jump off the page in this funky counting book by designer Mimi Maxwell. Children of all ages will delight in identifying and adding the monsters that darken each successive page. The charming rhymes, coupled with the positive message that monsters in the night aren't so scary after all, makes this a book that will transcend the Halloween season.
This account of Stalin's life begins with his early years, the family breakup, the abuse by his father and the growth of the traumatized boy into criminal, spy, and finally one of the 20th century's political monsters. The book explores why Stalin was not exposed after the collapse of the Tsarist regime. It gives an account of the discoveries in the odl archives of Stalin's Okhrana files after his rise to power. It came to light in 1926 and there were several attempts to use the file to depose and execute Stalin as an Okhrana provocateur. Soviet officials of Polish and Jewish ethnic origin played a part in the story of this file, and Brackman argues that this inspired Stalin's hatred for these two groups, igniting the irrational urge to destroy them that led to his alliance with Hitler and the partitioning of Poland, which started World War II.
