I was sitting at a circular table in a blindingly sunny apartment on the Upper East Side, fumbling my way through a series of card tricks I’d just learned from Asi Wind, a magician and mentalist whose book, “How Did You Do That?,” is coming out on Nov. 17.

The Utah quilting novel that stormed the bestseller list

|
By Elisabeth Egan Verified
| The Salt Lake Tribune Verified
“Stitched” wasn’t a shoo-in for the bestseller list, at least according to the many editors who rejected it. Eli McCann’s debut novel isn’t about dragons, witches or video games.

The most surprising thing about Julie Orringer’s third novel, “Luna, Phoenix, Queen,” isn’t that it features a talking dog, a girl who identifies as a deer or a memory care facility that sounds like a genuinely fun place to hang out. The most surprising thing is that Orringer started writing about Dava, a literature professor who has early onset Alzheimer’s, before learning that her husband and fellow author Ryan Harty, 61, had the disease himself.

No matter your relationship to celebrity — you are one, you aspire to be one, you wouldn’t know Bruce Springsteen from Bruce Lee — there’s nothing like hearing a famous person’s life story in their own, instantly recognizable voice. As any audiophile knows, author-narrated books can be dicey: too raspy, too peppy, too monotone, you name it. But put one in the hands of a pro and the effect is strangely intimate, like watching a one-person show from a front-row seat in an empty theater.
