The Cocaine Chronicles

<div>&ldquo;A gem&rdquo; of a collection of marijuana stories, poems and artwork by Joyce Carol Oates, Lee Child, Linda Yablonsky, Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan, and others (New York Journal of Books). It&rsquo;s known by many names: Pot. Grass. Hash. Hemp. Reefer. Ganja. Dope. Weed. Smoke. Spliff. Mary Jane. Tea. Blunt. And it has played just as many parts in the mind of the public, from Reefer Madness to medical marijuana. Here is a collection of new works as diverse and provocative as the drug itself. From Joyce Carol Oates&rsquo;s &ldquo;High&rdquo; to Dean Haspiel&rsquo;s &ldquo;Cannibal Sativa&rdquo;; from Maggie Estep&rsquo;s &ldquo;Zombie Hookers of Hudson&rdquo; to Philip Spitzer&rsquo;s &ldquo;Tips for the Pot-Smoking Traveler,&rdquo; this collection explores the drug in its many forms and varietals. In prose, pictures, stories, and poems, you can delve into the folklore and the facts, rich cultural history, and dramas personal, political, spiritual, and legal. Like Dave Chappelle says: &ldquo;Hey, hey, hey. Smoke weed every day.&rdquo; </div>

The Marijuana Chronicles

<div>From a New York Times&ndash;bestseller, a thriller short story about a Vietnam veteran on the run who receives help from a young military cop named Jack Reacher. Before Jack Reacher became the seminal, nomadic hero he is today and #1 New York Times&ndash;bestselling writer Lee Child reached his current iconic literary stature, there was James Penney, who we meet in this intense thriller short. Penney was originally envisioned as a character in Child&rsquo;s second Jack Reacher tale, Die Trying. Though an interesting character, Penney was ultimately excised during the editing process and readers didn&rsquo;t have the pleasure of meeting him. Now he&rsquo;s been resurrected in a tale that features a brief glimpse of Jack Reacher&rsquo;s early career. Don&rsquo;t miss this heart-pumping tale of suspense! </div>

James Penney's New Identity

<div>The #1 New York Times–bestselling author reveals the story behind “one of this century’s most original, tantalizing pop-fiction heroes” (The Washington Post). In this short piece, the creator of Jack Reacher shares the origins of the ex-military cop who now makes use of his skills in the civilian world—a place where he never feels quite at home. In addition, Lee Child reflects on writing and his own life story: the importance of character; making the transition from a television career to a literary career; how his famous character was almost named Franklin—and how he wound up being called Reacher instead. “Jack Reacher is today’s James Bond, a thriller hero we can’t get enough of. I read every one as soon as it appears.” —Ken Follett, international-bestselling author of The Pillars of the Earth “Every Reacher novel delivers a jolt to the nervous system.” —Kirkus Reviews</div>
