Story
Through candid accounts of stereotypically vilified individuals—a jihadist, gang member, and white supremacist—as well as additional interviews with people who have been equally cruel and those who have experienced profound victimization, we learn how rigorous inner work can shift even deeply polarized social issues for the better. Piercing the often unconscious and destructive patterns that arise from a legacy of abuse gives rise to a clear leadership methodology, one that heals individuals across racial, political, social, and cultural divides.

Story
Although the female movement is interwoven into our social world and people preach “girl power,” brand experience expert Katie Mares has seen that this mindset hasn’t penetrated business branding or the experience businesses provide to women. Very few businesses focus on elevating “interaction” so that a brand experience includes a personal connection with the consumer and addresses their genuine interests and needs. CustomHer Experience sends the clear message that true power comes when businesses focus on providing a brand and consumer experience that women can’t live without.

In 1966, John Kim Faye was born out of wedlock to a 40-year-old Korean mother and a 62-year-old Irish father. Faye grew up in the state of Delaware, where laws forbidding interracial marriage were still on the books until 1967. As the lead singer and primary songwriter of the Caulfields, Faye was one of the only mixed-race Asian American frontman to sign a major record contract in the alternative rock heyday of the 1990s. In an era that preceded K-Pop—and even the rise of the internet—Faye’s personal journey did not lead to superstardom.

Publisher's Summary
Can the last novel you've listened to tick these boxes?
- Entertaining
- Annotated for your pleasure
- Humorous
- It was the literary equivalent of a well-prepared steak—or celery, if you’re vegan
- It was written by a humble man whose only goal in life is to bring joy to others
A Man Walks into a Bank offers all of these things, plus a lifetime of ecstatic joy and happiness. Guaranteed.*
Ellis Coldwater is a pretty easy-going bank robber. Wendy Larkin is a pretty woman—a little shy, a little nervous, and a little married. What happens when these two get together “on the job”? Whose recipe for living life will lead to the most happiness, the most laughter, and the least amount of jail time?
Our tale jumps in immediately as this novel adroitly rolls up its sleeve to expose the funny bone of crime, love, right, wrong, the pursuit of money, happiness, the vagaries of humanity that gives life meaning, and the dicey world of run-on sentences that somehow make perfect sense in the end.
If you enjoy Donald Westlake and/or P.G. Wodehouse, you will love A Man Walks into a Bank. If you enjoy their writing, even better.
