ALEXANDER MCQUEEN: EVOLUTION
GLEASON, KATHERINE
Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012
From Jack the Ripper Stalks His Victims, his 1992 graduate collection, to Plato's Atlantis, the last show before
his death in 2010, Lee Alexander McQueen was as celebrated for the exquisite tailoring, meticulous
craftsmanship, and stunning originality of his designs as he was notorious for his theatrical—and often
controversial—runway shows. McQueen found inspiration for his avant-garde collections everywhere: his
Scottish ancestry, Alfred Hitchcock movies, Yoruba mythology, the destruction of the environment—even the
fashion industry itself. Whatever his inspiration, however, McQueen’s concept for his runway show came first
and was crucial to the development of the collection. Illustrated throughout with stunning photography and
liberally sprinkled with quotations from McQueen and those who knew him best, Alexander McQueen: Evolution
is the story of the designer’s thirty-five runway shows and the genius behind them.

AMERICA AGAIN
COLBERT, STEPHEN
Book store nation, in the history of mankind there has never been a greater country than America. You could say
we're the #1 nation at being the best at greatness. But as perfect as America is in every single way, America is
broken! And we can't exchange it because we're 236 years past the 30-day return window. Look around--we
don't make anything anymore, we've mortgaged our future to China, and the Apologist-in-Chief goes on world
tours just to bow before foreign leaders. Worse, the L.A. Four Seasons Hotel doesn't even have a dedicated
phone button for the Spa. You have to dial an extension! Where did we lose our way?!
