The first publication of Casa Kahlo, Frida Kahlo's private Mexico City family home and personal sanctuary, and its collections of her art, clothing, jewelry, and treasured keepsakes, the house has been opened to visitors for the first time in nearly 100 years.

Curated and written by her great-nieces, who lived in the house throughout their lives, this book offers an unparalleled glimpse into Frida Kahlo, opening a new perspective into this iconic artist's family home and refuge. Casa Kahlo was more than a second home--it was a place where Frida could truly be herself away from the house she shared with her husband, the artist Diego Rivera. At Casa Kahlo--surrounded by her artistic family and the vibrant Indigenous culture she immersed herself in--she spent time with her closest confidantes (her sisters), her friends, and her lovers. The house also served as an additional studio space for Kahlo where she taught art classes to a legion of loyal students who referred to themselves as Los Fridos.

Remarkably, Casa Kahlo has been occupied by Frida's family since they bought the house in 1930. Meticulously documenting the interiors, this book features a rich array of personal items and never-before-published letters and postcards to her sisters, her mother, and her most beloved niece Isolda. Hundreds of personal items offer an intimate view into her artistic environment and personal life: from her early drawings and paintings (including the first painting she showed Rivera at eighteen years old) to later drawings; her distinctive jewelry and clothing; key documents, including her birth and marriage certificates; artworks; and keepsakes ranging from dolls to her taxidermy butterfly collection.

Written by her closest family members, the book presents a very fresh and deeply personal perspective on the artist's life, enriched by their unique connection to her legacy.

A provocative look at the secret society that has controlled St. Louis for over a century, revealing how shadowy elites organize themselves against working-class power.

Every December in downtown St. Louis, the city's upper crust attend a garish costume party that doubles as a debutante's ball. The daughters of high society are paraded to the throne of a cloaked monarchical figure, and bow to the Veiled Prophet of Khorassan. At first glance, the event seems outdated and clownish, but in truth the Veiled Prophet Society has functioned as an exclusive club for the "city fathers," where solidarity is built between wealthy men who head major U.S. corporations, banks, and control whole industries. At the Veiled Prophet's Ball, these titans of capital come together to crown one of their daughters the Queen of Love and Beauty, and celebrate the breaking of strikes, the sabotage of protests, and the enforcement of racial hierarchies.

Devin Thomas O'Shea's The Veiled Prophet is the definitive history of the Veiled Prophet Society in all its violence and pageantry, offering a colorful alternate history of the United States through the lens of the Midwestern elite. O'Shea follows the Veiled Prophet Society from its origins in the wake of the 1877 general strike, through the 1904 World's Fair, to the height of the Prophet's--and St. Louis's--influence during the Cold War. The Veiled Prophet examines the unexpected ways this secret society has shaped the course of history, from the CIA to the Vietnam War to the assassination of Martin Luther King.

Yet the power wielded by the Veiled Prophet has not gone uncontested. Since the Gilded Age, the Prophet has faced resistance from orphans armed with pea-shooters, Communist Party organizers during the Depression, Civil Rights icons, and renegade debutantes. The Ferguson uprising of 2014 was only the most recent challenge to the Prophet's influence.

As the fight for the soul and streets of St. Louis intensifies, it's more critical than ever that we expose the sordid history of these powerful, masked figures and their control over our democracy.

A delightful, warmhearted book about home and nesting perfect for bird lovers, naturalists, and anyone charmed by the coziness of a snug nest.

This book is meticulously designed as a large-format visual portfolio of the world's most distinctive birds, whose nesting behavior and natural beauty are celebrated in beautifully detailed graphite and watercolor illustrations--all based on actual field studies. The exquisitely detailed bird, nest, and egg portraits are framed by details that include building techniques, materials, egg characteristics (shapes, colors, and number in a clutch), hatchlings and chicks, and parenting behaviors.

Nowhere is avian ingenuity more beautifully expressed than in the construction of nests. The book is organized into chapters based on species' nesting techniques: South America's crested oropendola, whose intricate, pendulous, sphere-like nests hang in trees like holiday ornaments; Arizona's ferruginous pygmy owl, whose nests are hidden in vicious yet protective thorns and bristles of giant saguaro cacti; and peregrine falcons, who scrape out a shallow depression called an eyrie in the sides of cliffs or--in urban settings--ledges on skyscrapers.

This beautiful book celebrates the very idea of making a warm, cozy home. It is also a timely reminder of the diversity, beauty, and ingenuity of the avian world.

One of Literary Hub's Most Anticipated Books of 2026

A deeply moving, continuously surprising meditation on loss, time, psychology, and numerology in this genre-defying blend of memoir, poetry, and history from Grief Girl author Erin Vincent.

When Erin Vincent was fourteen years old, both of her parents were killed in a traffic accident. Almost forty years later, the number 14 began haunting Erin, appearing everywhere--in the books she was reading, in films, TV shows, and on the news.
The repetition felt significant, so Erin began to explore the number beyond her personal understanding. The result is Fourteen Ways of Looking, a memoir of magisterial fractals and a profound reflection on grief, memory, the creative process, and the patterns and symbols all around us.

Positioning Alice Neel as a champion of civil rights, this book explores how her paintings convey her humanist politics and capture the humanity, strength, and vulnerability of her subjects

"One of the most ambitious and thorough collections of Neel's work to date."--Allison Schaller, Vanity Fair

"For me, people come first," Alice Neel (1900-1984) declared in 1950. "I have tried to assert the dignity and eternal importance of the human being." This ambitious publication surveys Neel's nearly 70-year career through the lens of her radical humanism. Remarkable portraits of victims of the Great Depression, fellow residents of Spanish Harlem, leaders of political organizations, queer artists, visibly pregnant women, and members of New York's global diaspora reveal that Neel viewed humanism as both a political and philosophical ideal. In addition to these paintings of famous and unknown sitters, the more than 100 works highlighted include Neel's emotionally charged cityscapes and still lifes as well as the artist's erotic pastels and watercolors. Essays tackle Neel's portrayal of LGBTQ subjects; her unique aesthetic language, which merged abstraction and figuration; and her commitment to progressive politics, civil rights, feminism, and racial diversity. The authors also explore Neel's highly personal preoccupations with death, illness, and motherhood while reasserting her place in the broader cultural history of the 20th century.

This publication explores the rich intersections of portraiture and fashion in the art of the English painter Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788), one of the most sought-after society portraitists of his age and a continued inspiration today.

Gainsborough, whose importance was akin to that of later society artist John Singer Sargent, made hundreds of portraits, becoming one of the leaders of the fledging British School of artists. Very much a part of the social dynamic of the time, portraiture is described as a "means by which artists and their subjects could reinforce, resist, or break rules of social order." The engrossing text examines how fashion was understood, often in complex ways, in Gainsborough's time; how the artist would sometimes revisit a portrait to update a style; and how the documentation of both sitter and garment can be deciphered centuries after the creation of a work. Entries are provided on each of the twenty-five works in the exhibition that the catalogue accompanies.

The book explores how and why Gainsborough and his sitters chose the trappings in which they would be immortalized in paint. From dukes and duchesses to the once-enslaved Ignatius Sancho, Gainsborough captured the essence of his contemporaries. A century after Gainsborough's death, his portraits experienced renewed popularity among wealthy American collectors such as the Fricks, Vanderbilts, and Huntingtons, who coveted his works for their private collections. This book provides a comprehensive understanding of Gainsborough's oeuvre and his time, and is an invaluable resource for understanding the longstanding appeal of eighteenth-century art.

Fictional popstars and their fans -- in tales of love and dangerous obsession -- inspired by 2000's icons. Collins created two fictional music groups exclusively for this publication. Collins pulls themes of identity and mental health through this compellingly realistic but narrative fiction.

This book is a cinematic journey of the performers as seen through the eyes of their fans and stalkers, images of performances, rescues, and confrontations, interspersed with letters, conversations, and diary entries. The five chapters follow Ashley, a solo star, and Siren8, a teen idol group designed for bubblegum appeal. Ashley, once a quiet artistic student, is discovered at a school performance and pushed into pop stardom. She starts sincere and gentle, but fame twists her identity. Manipulated, isolated, and disassociated, she becomes a ghostlike figure to those who knew her before disappearing under mysterious circumstances. Siren8 contrasts with Ashley's "dreamy-girl-next-door" image. They tour with Ashley before an unexplained falling-out. Vuyu, Ashley's quiet, protective best friend, knew the real Ashley and reappears in anonymous forums to correct misinformation. Momo, a hardcore Ashley fan and obsessive researcher who created a viral timeline thread that's a monument to Ashley's erasure. B, a loner at Ashley's school, fixates on Ashley as a symbol of truth. She writes dozens of letters, convinced she's protecting Ashley, an obsession that slowly turns violent.
