“Lost and Found: Assemblage Artists of Northern California” is a captivating book that highlights the incredible talent and creativity of the Assemblage artists. With two hundred pages of visual jazz, this book is a journey into the world of Assemblage art, offering readers a unique and immersive experience.

Assemblage art is a form of sculpture that involves creating three-dimensional or two-dimensional artworks by assembling found objects, often discarded or repurposed materials. This art form gained prominence in the 20th century, particularly with the rise of the Dada and Surrealist movements. Assemblage artists use a wide range of materials, including wood, metal, plastic, textiles, and various other items to construct their pieces. The resulting artworks often convey complex narratives or assemblage art offers a unique platform for exploring environmental sustainability through creative expression.

This beautifully produced book has won nine national awards and is in its third printing solidifying its reputation as a must-read for not only art enthusiasts but the adventurous and curious reader.

The artists featured in the book are well known in the art world and some have appeared on the television show American Pickers, one with permanent display at the Smithsonian.

By purchasing “Lost and Found,” you will gain access to a treasure trove of stunning artwork, as well as valuable insights into the artistic process of the Assemblage artists. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore a captivating world of art that will leave you inspired and enchanted. It makes an amazing gift, sending that special someone on an artistic journey into a new world of art and expression.

The beloved novel and cult classic The Joy of Funerals, is set for a special edition rerelease.

The Joy of Funerals hailed as “Six Feet Under” meets “Sex & the City” – was originally released in 2003 by St. Martin's Press. In honor of its 20th anniversary, Palagram Press is reissuing the novel on Oct. 2, 2023, to highlight this triumphant milestone with an updated cover and new letter from the award-winning author and New York Times contributor, Alix Strauss.

The novel highlights the loneliness we all feel as human beings and our deep, innate, and necessary need we have for real relationships – something we are losing. Timing for a rerelease couldn’t be more necessary, or perfect, especially after a pandemic, where we have been forced into an unwanted lifestyle of solitude, our deep ache for organic – non zooming, non-device driven, human to human connection has been intensified – we have been mentally, physically, and emotional starved.

If timing is everything, then the world has caught up with Alix Strauss. It seems that books offering once “taboo” or too-edgy and dark themes are finally having a moment – ex: I’m Glad My Mom Died, Dear Edward, Bittersweet, Sorry for Your Loss, and a slew of others, are titles performing well and hitting a nerve right now with readers.

Written with raw wit, mordant humor and a uniquely penetrating voice, Strauss turns the spotlight on the unattractive subjects of loss, grief, and loneliness. The Joy of Funerals is a smart, vivid, and arresting look into the inner world of those left behind, and those still holding on.

Author Alix Strauss is a trend, culture, and lifestyle journalist; an award-winning, four-time published author; and speaker and a frequent contributor to the New York Times, among other publications. During the past 25 years she has written over 1500 articles. Her books include: The Joy of Funerals (St. Martin’s Press & Palagram Press), Based Upon Availability (Harper Collins), and Death Becomes Them: Unearthing the Suicides of the Brilliant, the Famous and the Notorious (Harper Collins). She is also the editor of Have I Got a Guy for You (Simon & Schuster), an anthology of mother coordinated dating horror stories. Her work has been an option for several TV and film projects.

The Joy of Funerals, on sale October 2nd ,2023 will be available via Amazon and other online retailers as well as your favorite local bookstore. Pre-orders are available wherever books are sold. Alix is available for interviews, readings, and events. Retailers can order through Ingram or their local book supplier. To our retailer friends, especially in Manhattan, this should be a must carry. Get in touch with us for more information.

26/05/2023

On sale July 18th, wherever books are sold, online and at your local independent or chain bookseller. Many of us know the story from the headlines of the day, many of us have seen the acclaimed Netflix docuseries, Trail 4. Now read the book and see first-hand through the eyes of the author, a dual American justice system, one for the privileged and one most of us never knew could exist.

IN FOR LIFE: A journey into Murder, Corruption, and Friendship
By Elaine Alice Murphy

Sean K. Ellis was convicted in 1995—at his third trial, after two prior hung juries—of the murder and robbery of controversial Boston detective John J. Mulligan. Age nineteen at the time of the crime, Sean insisted he was innocent. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

Elaine Alice Murphy learned of Sean's Boston conviction by happenstance, while living in Montreal. She was shocked to realize he was the same Sean Ellis who’d been her son Mark's former classmate a decade prior when the Murphy family lived in suburban Boston. He’d been bussed to their school district from inner-city Boston through a voluntary racial integration program. Sean and Mark had been best friends.

Stricken to think that the gentle boy she remembered would die in prison an innocent man, Murphy joined with his family and lawyers in a two-decade quest to free him. Her research uncovered evidence of Boston police corruption that tainted the Mulligan homicide investigation and trials. The finding was called a "game changer" by the Mass. Supreme Judicial Court and led to the reversal of Sean's convictions and his release from prison in 2015.

In for Life is Murphy's riveting account of her journey through a corrupt criminal justice system and her growing distress at the two different Americas Sean and her son faced growing up. The book goes far deeper into the Ellis case than does the acclaimed Netflix series, Trial 4. Woven throughout are insights from Murphy’s two decades of prison visits with Sean and the letters they exchanged. Their unique bond grew ever stronger over Sean’s near-22-year incarceration and became life changing for both.
