<b>This hardcover edition celebrates the #1 <i>New York Times </i>bestseller that set our sights on Mars and inspired the major motion picture starring Matt Damon and Jessica Chastain, with special features including:<br/><br/>- Intricately designed sprayed edges<br/>- New cover art on a deluxe jacket<br/>- Full-color illustrated endpapers<br/>- A custom-stamped case</b><br/><br/><b>A mission to Mars. A freak accident. One man's struggle to survive. From the author of <i>Project Hail Mary</i> comes "a hugely entertaining novel that reads like a rocket ship afire" (<i>Chicago Tribune</i>).</b><br/><br/><b>"Brilliant . . . a celebration of human ingenuity [and] the purest example of real-science sci-fi for many years . . . utterly compelling."-<i>The Wall Street Journal</i></b><br/><br/>Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.<br/><br/>Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there.<br/><br/>After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive-and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.<br/><br/>Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.<br/><br/>But Mark isn't ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills-and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit-he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?<br/><b><br/>NAMED ONE OF <i>PASTE</i>'S BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE<br/></b><br/>"A hugely entertaining novel [that] reads like a rocket ship afire . . . Weir has fashioned in Mark Watney one of the most appealing, funny, and resourceful characters in recent fiction."<b>-<i>Chicago Tribune</i></b><br/><br/>"As gripping as they come . . . You'll be rooting for Watney the whole way, groaning at every setback and laughing at his pitchblack humor. Utterly nail-biting and memorable."<b>-<i>Financial Times</i></b>

<i>Ghost Stories</i> is Siri Hustvedt's most personal work yet, a searing and intimate meditation on grief, memory, and enduring love, written in the aftermath of the death of her husband, writer, poet and filmmaker Paul Auster.<br/><br/>It is a patchwork-quilt book that stitches together memories from over forty years of love and life together: journal entries Siri wrote between early November 2023, when Paul first became ill, and 3 May 2024, the day of his funeral; e-mails Siri sent to friends during Paul's cancer treatment; notes Paul sent her over the course of their relationship; and three love letters Siri wrote to him in 1981, when he left her for a period of nine or ten days to return to his former life with his first wife and son.<br/><br/>The book also contains Paul Auster's last ever piece of writing - the first thirty-five pages of what he hoped would be a small book of letters to Siri's and his grandson, Miles Auster Hustvedt Ostrander, born on 1st January 2024. <br/><br/>The result is an emotional, full-bodied story of Siri Hustvedt and Paul Auster's life together, an exploration of how grief unmoors time and how the intimacy of a shared life continues to mark the everyday. Part memoir, part philosophical inquiry, <i>Ghost Stories</i> is unflinching, tender, and wise. It is a story of a woman haunting her own life, and the ghosts that inhabit us even as we carry on.
