Macy returns to the subject in a new book, noting that given the scale of the opioid epidemic, the nation is sorely lacking in effective treatment programs, often due to the indifference of state and local officials or their hostility to treating people they regard as parasites or criminals. Her last book, "Dopesick," which was adapted into an eight-part series on Hulu, detailed the dimensions and impact of the opioid crisis, particularly on rural communities. Our guest, journalist Beth Macy, writes that addiction has become the No. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that more than a million Americans have died from drug overdose since 1996. I'm Dave Davies, in today for Terry Gross. Because of the stress of Carl's life, the deadly rhyme becomes unusually powerful, allowing him to kill by only thinking the poem. As Carl learns, the rhyme has the power to kill anyone to whom it is spoken. In every case, the book was open to a page that contained the culling song. During his investigations into other SIDS cases, he finds that a copy of the book was at the scene of each death. Carl discovers that his wife and child had died immediately after he read them a "culling song", or African chant, from the book Poems and Rhymes Around the World.

It won the 2003 Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Award, and was nominated for the Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel in 2002.

"The Look Book," a collection of photographs of fashion-conscious New Yorkers originally published in New York Magazine, came out last September, and one of its subjects is already a star: André J., a bearded cross-dresser, graced the November cover of French Vogue. (Schuman needn't be too worried about the competition: he has a monthly page in GQ and two book deals in the works, and last week's opening of a show of images from his blog drew a line down the block.) Bloggers say their sites (Street Peeper, Last Night's Party, Fashionista and Stylesight, to name a few) are both creating and responding to interest in street fashion. Schuman is part of a growing group of bloggers posting pictures of fashion as worn by real people around the world. The image, when posted on Schuman's blog, The Sartorialist, draws more than 70 comments about the coat: a good response, but hardly unusual-a single photo on the site can attract posts from hundreds of fashion-savvy commenters, who hotly debate the length of a jacket cuff or the fold of a pocket square. But ultimately he decides her look is "a little too Nordstrom." Instead, he shoots a bearded man wearing a brown puffer coat that cinches at the waist. He spots a promising model: a girl with long, shiny hair, wearing high heels midday on a Saturday-two signs, he says, of a fashionista. Scott Schuman is prowling SoHo, camera over his shoulder, looking for subjects for his photo blog of street fashion.

He is an important American novelist and writes what he chooses when he chooses.” Now, Penguin Random House has announced that his upcoming book will be published by their imprint William Heinemann. It may not involve the Hannibal character at all. Mort Janklow, his agent, had told Entertainment Weekly in a 2007 interview, “I have no idea what Tom’s next book will be. The last book the author wrote was Hannibal Rising in 2006, the fourth part of the Hannibal Lecter series. Thomas Harris, best known for his series on the now iconic Hannibal Lecter, has announced a new book, 13 years after his last one!
