    Space For Breathing: A Rock Star Romance I used to think I had it all – the fame, the fans, the adoration and most of all – the music. My brother and I were two halves of the rock band, Slone. We’d been famous since we were teenagers. Despite all those blessings, one day I looked up and realized, I had nothing. Couldn’t write a song to save my life…or my relationship with my brother. I was allowing myself to fail.

    But then I found her. Maeva. She was the proud, devastatingly beautiful adopted daughter of the president of the record label. Her father had invited me to The Estate, a mansion in the outskirts of Manila, Philippines. Maeva coaxed me back into myself – the real me with her unconditional love, her nurturing, her touch.

    In the end, I had to leave, cherishing every moment we’d had together. Could the two of us – from different sides of the world – find each other again?

    Dave Barry Hits Below the Beltway Just in time, Dave Barry supplies the wholly original, much needed history and guide to the new American politics and its three capitals, Washington, D.C., Austin, and South Florida. No surprise: it’s hilarious.

    Understanding the urgent need for a deeply thoughtful balanced book to explain our national political process, Dave Barry has not even come close. Though he himself has covered many campaigns, run for President several times, and run for cover at the rainy inauguration of George W. Bush (the man will spare nothing for his art) Barry has instead outdone himself.

    Below the Beltway includes Barry’s stirring account of how the United States was born, including his version of a properly rewritten Declaration (When in the course of human events it behooves us, the people, not to ask "What can our country do for us, anyway?" but rather whether we have anything to fear except fear itself…) and a revised Constitution (Section II: The House of Representatives shall be composed of people who own at least two dark suits and have not been indicted recently.).

    Dave also cracks the income tax code, explains the growth(s) of government, congressional hearing difficulties, and the persistent rumors of the influence of capital in the Capitol. Among other civic contributions, his tour of Washington, D.C., should end school class trips forever.

    From a medieval monastery to a cutting-edge government laboratory, Library of the Dead delivers a richly detailed, thought-provoking exploration of fate, predestination, and the choices we make in life.
