When Hugh Hefner quit his job at Esquire to start a magazine called Playboy, he didn't just want to make money, he wanted to make dreams come true. In this wise and penetrating biography, intellectual historian Steven Watts looks at what Hugh Hefner went on to become and how he took America with him. Hefner became one of the most hated and envied celebrities in America, standing just barely on the wrong side of decency - with as many as seven million subscribers to his magazine.

Story1
In 1953, Winston Churchill received the Nobel Prize - for Literature. In fact, Churchill was a professional writer before he was a politician, and published a stream of books and articles over the course of two intertwined careers. Now historian Peter Clarke traces the writing of the magisterial work that occupied Churchill for a quarter century, his four-volume History of the English-Speaking Peoples. As an author, Churchill faced woes familiar to many others - chronically short of funds, late on deadlines, scrambling to sell new projects....

Story0
A personal insight in to the life of John Keats, his thoughts, his friends, where was his life going?...his poetry said it all. He was a hothead, short to temper, but so completely focused on becoming a poet, he had a vision, an image of himself. Fashion mattered, frilly cuffs mattered and he was prepared for fisticuffs on the streets or a brawl at the local theatre. His time in Devon was the summer in his life for the most part - though it rained most of the time. His brother and the girls from the shop across the way, were young, free, and so enjoying their precious time together.

Story1
La temprana muerte del escritor chileno Roberto Bolaño fue el puñado de pólvora que encendió, de forma definitiva, la llama de su leyenda. Armada de un sutil instinto periodístico y con el compromiso solidario de los amigos, Mónica Maristain se dio a la tarea de buscar a las personas que pudieron disfrutar largas charlas con Bolaño, aquéllos que compartieron su juventud, niñez y madurez, para tejer un retrato más allá del personaje literario, descripción de cuerpo entero que toca las fibras de la persona, el padre, el hijo, el compañero.
