Synopsis The Conservative Sensibility by : George F. Will

The Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist's "astonishing" and "enthralling" New York Times bestseller and Notable Book about how the Founders' belief in natural rights created a great American political tradition (Booklist) -- "easily one of the best books on American Conservatism ever written" (Jonah Goldberg). For more than four decades, George F. Will has attempted to discern the principles of the Western political tradition and apply them to America's civic life. Today, the stakes could hardly be higher. Vital questions about the nature of man, of rights, of equality, of majority rule are bubbling just beneath the surface of daily events in America. The Founders' vision, articulated first in the Declaration of Independence and carried out in the Constitution, gave the new republic a framework for government unique in world history. Their beliefs in natural rights, limited government, religious freedom, and in human virtue and dignity ushered in two centuries of American prosperity. Now, as Will shows, conservatism is under threat -- both from progressives and elements inside the Republican Party. America has become an administrative state, while destructive trends have overtaken family life and higher education. Semi-autonomous executive agencies wield essentially unaccountable power. Congress has failed in its duty to exercise its legislative powers. And the executive branch has slipped the Constitution's leash. In the intellectual battle between the vision of Founding Fathers like James Madison, who advanced the notion of natural rights that pre-exist government, and the progressivism advanced by Woodrow Wilson, the Founders have been losing. It's time to reverse America's political fortunes. Expansive, intellectually thrilling, and written with the erudite wit that has made Will beloved by millions of readers, The Conservative Sensibility is an extraordinary new book from one of America's most celebrated political writers.

Synopsis Tory Burch by : Tory Burch

Tory Burch sees the world in color, inspired by people, places, and ideas—all of which influence her brand, synonymous with print and color. In her first book, she explores what living in color means to her. The book is organized by color, each one brought to life through images of her own collections and travels; how she entertains; style icons; the works of artists, authors, and interior designers she admires; and the advice of business leaders—many of whom are interviewed within. The book also offers a glimpse into the more personal moments in Tory’s life, such as family trips with her boys or the indelible ways in which her parents, Buddy and Reva Robinson, influenced her collection, company, and philosophy. The foreword is written by Anna Wintour, artistic director of Condé Nast and editor-in-chief of Vogue, and the cover features Damien Hirst's Beautiful Primal Urges Rug, © Damien Hirst and Science Ltd., all rights reserved / DACS, London / ARS, NY 2014.

Synopsis The Complete Novels of George Eliot by : George Eliot

George Eliot's 'The Complete Novels of George Eliot' is a collection that showcases the author's literary brilliance and keen insight into human nature. Known for her deep psychological insights and realistic portrayals of Victorian society, Eliot's novels explore themes of morality, social class, and the complexity of human relationships. Her writing style is characterized by a rich and detailed prose, with characters that are complex and multi-dimensional, making her work a staple in English literature. George Eliot, a pen name for Mary Ann Evans, was a trailblazing female writer in a male-dominated literary world. Drawing from her own experiences and observations, Eliot's novels reflect her deep empathy for her characters and her passion for social reform. Her background as a translator and editor also contributed to her literary success, as she was able to weave together different narrative threads with finesse and precision. I highly recommend 'The Complete Novels of George Eliot' to readers interested in Victorian literature and exploring the complexities of human nature. Eliot's works continue to resonate with readers today, offering timeless insights into the human experience and the challenges of navigating society's expectations.
