A selected discography of Michael Jackson's music: Read story. Have fun at homeSunday, June 28, 2009
Many of us are cutting back on travel plans this summer in an effort to conserve cash. Instead of flying to some exotic location (expensive), staying in a fancy hotel (expensive) and eating in nice restaurants (expensive), we are choosing to stay home for a week. It's called a staycation. Read story. Jackson's 1982 'Thriller' was greatest achievementSunday, June 28, 2009
It was the crowning achievement for the King of Pop — and for pop in general. Michael Jackson's 1982 album, "Thriller," is not only the greatest-selling album of all time — more than 104 million copies sold — but it also broke the color barrier on an infant MTV Read story. 'Home Safe,' Berg's 21st book a silly effortSunday, June 28, 2009
In these grisly economic times, it's a stretch to be empathetic with someone who has to go search for her $850,000 "nest egg," the premise of Elizbeth Berg's 21st novel. And the framework that silliness sits on isn't even new. Read story. 'T.S. Spivet' story too self-awareSunday, June 28, 2009
In spots, "The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet" is wonderful. The fairy-tale/coming-of-age/adventure story soon has readers rooting for Tecumseh Sparrow Spivet, a 12-year-old Montana ranch boy, master cartographer and unlikely hero who is a little bit Huck Finn, a little bit Harry Potter and a little bit Holden Caulfield. Read story. Michael Jackson, a thrilling starSunday, June 28, 2009
WASHINGTON — In 1972, when the movie "Ben" premiered and sent that falsetto voice of little Michael Jackson soaring across movie screens, the joy inside black America was palpable. It wasn't just that the song raced to No. 1 on the charts, it was that it flowed from the magic of film. Read story. Insightful stories of excess, lossSunday, June 28, 2009
In the February 2006 issue of Vanity Fair, Jay McInerney's answers to the monthly "Proust Questionnaire" were published in the magazine's back pages. The last question was, "How would you like to die?" McInerney's answer, "In bed with my true love after a night on the town," is a good encapsulation of the strivings and failures of the fictional characters who occupy his novels and short stories.

Many mothers can be called superhuman, but only a few one-of-a-kind moms are memoir material. Author Nancy Bachrach's mother, Lola, who is the main subject of "The Center of the Universe," might not be one of the few. Read story. Book keeps reader guessingSunday, June 28, 2009
Bill Scheft's third novel introduces us to Phil Camp, a divorced fellow who is two-faced, appropriate since he also has two names. In this book-within-a-book, Camp writes a popular best-seller that he publishes using the pen name Marty Fleck. Read story. War tales intimate, personalSunday, June 28, 2009
This book is a bit of an anomaly in that it refuses to fit into any of the standard niches or categories. It is not a novel, but it tells a moving story. It is not a history because descriptions of the evolution of events are minimal. And there are just too many principals for it to be a biography. Read story.
