Conversation With Jon Batiste
The most of any artist this year. Eight for his album \"We Are,\" and three for his work on the soundtrack of the movie \"Soul.\" \"We Are\" demonstrates this extraordinary rang from his funky New Orleans roots, heard on the track \"Freedom,\" that dares you not to dance. To the classical-jazzy hybrid \"Movement 11.\" Best-known for his day job, the bandleader on \"The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.\" Jon Batiste is no one's wingman now.

Between two kingdoms : what almost dying taught me about living
At just twenty-two, Suleika Jaouad was diagnosed with leukemia and given a 35 per cent chance of survival. For five years her world comprised four white walls, a hospital bed, fluorescent lights, tubes and wires. She became patient 5624. At twenty-seven, and celebrating her first year of remission, Suleika realized that, having survived, she had no idea how to live. And so she set out to meet some of the strangers who had written to her about their experiences of life, death, healing and recovery in response to her Emmy-Award winning New York Times column, 'Life Interrupted'. Between Two Kingdoms is the result. We all face moments that bring us to our knees - heartbreak, trauma, illness. When things don't go to plan, this is the book to reach for. Drawing on Suleika's TED Talk, it illuminates universal questions about how we live, mourn, heal, grow up and begin again.
