New Releases by Paul Reiser

IL DIAVOLO NON È COSÌ BRUTTO COME LO SI DIPINGE… O FORSE SÌ? Dopo che Ellen Ripley, sulla nave militare USS Sulaco, è riuscita a sventare il piano di Carter Burke, ha spiegato a Hicks, Hudson, Vasquez e agli altri Marine coloniali superstiti che i progetti del viscido aziendalista prevedevano anche la loro morte, oltre a quella della stessa Ripley e di Newt. Com’è ovvio, i soldati non l’hanno presa bene… ma subito prima che riuscissero a mettere in atto l’esecuzione sommaria di Burke gli xenomorfi sono riusciti a disattivare la corrente e, nel trambusto dell’attacco immediatamente successivo, l’uomo della Weyland Yutani è andato incontro a una morte orribile. E in pochi lo hanno pianto (o forse proprio nessuno). Cosa sarebbe successo però se Burke non fosse stato ucciso dall’alieno di cui stava fissando il ghigno quando l’abbiamo visto l’ultima volta? La risposta è in questo volume, che vede come protagonista il più detestato personaggio della saga cinematografica incentrata sugli xenomorfi! Un ipotetico sequel di Aliens – Scontro finale scritto da Hans Rodionoff, Brian Volk-Weiss, Adam F. Goldberg, con l’aiuto di Paul Reiser – l’attore che ha dato il volto a Burke! – e di suo figlio Leon Reiser, e disegnato da Guiu Vilanova che mette in scena un Carter Burke in là con gli anni di nuovo alle prese con gli xenomorfi! [VOLUME UNICO. Contiene Aliens: What If…? 1-5]

"What if... Carter Burke had lived? For years, fans of James Cameron''s legendary Aliens film questioned whether Carter Burke, a company man more hateable than the Xenos themselves, had actually survived the traumatic events on the terraforming colony Hadley''s Hope. Now the actor behind the beloved villain, Paul Reiser, joins his son Leon and a star-studded team of writers and producers for the twisted escape of a man who should have died! Thirty- five years later, Burke is eking out a cursed existence on a backwater asteroid. With his once-promising career in the toilet, Burke''s only remaining purpose is to care for his daughter, Brie--who already hates him. So what happens when she finds out what he''s up to now, and the Xenomorphs hit the fan? Has Burke learned his lesson, or is his fate only to suffer a different, even more horrible death?!"--

A sweeping and evocative memoir from the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, Grammy Award–winning, platinum selling singer-songwriter Michael McDonald, written with his friend, Emmy Award–nominated actor, comedian, and #1 New York Times bestselling author Paul Reiser. Doobie Brothers. Steely Dan. Chart topping soloist. Across a half-century of American music, Michael McDonald’s unmistakably smooth baritone voice defined an era of rock and R&B with hit records like “What A Fool Believes,” “Takin’ It to the Streets,” “I Keep Forgettin’,” “Peg,” “It Keeps You Running,” “You Belong to Me,” and “Yah Mo B There.” In his candid, freewheeling memoir, written with his friend, the Emmy Award-nominated actor and comedian Paul Reiser, Michael tells the story of his life and music. A high school dropout from Ferguson, Missouri, Michael chased his dreams in 1970’s California, a heady moment of rock opportunity and excess. As a rising session musician and backing vocalist, a series of encounters would send him on a wild ride around the world and to the heights of rock stardom—from joining Steely Dan and becoming a defining member of The Doobie Brothers to forging a path as a breakout solo R&B artist. Interwoven with the unforgettable tales of the music, Michael tells a deeply affecting story of losing and finding himself as a man. He reckons with the unshakeable insecurities that drove him, the drug and alcohol addictions that plagued him, and the highs and lows of popularity. Along the way he relays the lessons he’s learned, and that if he’s learned anything at all it’s that there’s often little correlation between what you get and what you deserve. Filled with unbelievable stories and a matchless cast of music greats including James Taylor, Ray Charles, Carly Simon, and Quincy Jones, What a Fool Believes is a moving and entertaining memoir that is sure to be a classic.

The comedian and actor presents his humorous observations on parenting, marriage, and midlife.

From the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Couplehood and Familyhood: Insights on infants with “an out-loud laugh on every page” (San Francisco Chronicle). Just as Paul Reiser and his wife had finally figured out how to successfully live together as two people, why would they want to jeopardize everything with a whole new human being? Sitting next to two exceptionally loud little ones on an airplane gives them some strong arguments against it, but if they don’t “take the next step,” who’s going to drive them around when they’re old and cranky? This classic New York Times bestseller from the actor and comedian contemplates the indecision, the anxiety, the exhaustion, and the hard-earned rewards of deciding to perpetuate the species. “For the couple considering parenthood as well as for parents who are decades past their days of diaper changing . . . this book hits home and hits the funnybone.” —Chicago Tribune “Reiser knows how to wrench a laugh from sticky situations, and in his life, since his firstborn arrived, every situation has been sticky or moist.” —Los Angeles Times “This book won’t help you be a better parent, but it might put you in a better frame of mind about the whole experience.” —Detroit News

Tendre, divertit, hilarant... tot això i molt més és “Els fills i la mare que els va parir”. Aquest és un llibre recomanat per tots aquells que han estat pares ja fa temps, pels que ho seran properament, pels que es creuen que no ho seran mai, i pels que ho volen ser però troben que encara és massa aviat per fer el pas. Per a tots ells, però especialment per aquests darrers, llegir aquest llibre pot tenir efectes secundaris. Paul Reiser (1957) és el protagonista, creador i el productor de la sèrie de televisió “Boig per tu” (Mad about You). El seu primer llibre, “Sobreviure en parella” , fou publicat en aquesta mateixa col·lecció.

De Amerikaanse acteur en stand-up comedian vertelt zijn ervaringen tijdens de zwangerschap en bevalling van zijn vrouw en de geboorte en eerste babytijd van zijn kind.

Nach vielen Diskussionen hat sich ein bisher kinderlos glückliches Paar entschlossen, das Leben zu dritt zu versuchen. Und nun beginnen die Freuden und Leiden, die Tücken und Fallstricke von Schwangerschaft und Geburt- und wenn es soweit ist, eine chaotische Neuorientierung des gesamten Alltags. Ein mit viel Witz und Selbstironie geschriebener amüsanter bericht - nich nur für äschwangere Paareä.

Sobreviure en parella és un llibre àgil, divertit i entranyable. Amb un humor fi i molt proper, descriu les situacions quotidianes en què un home i una dona es troben quan decideixen formar una parella. La identificació amb els personatges és gairebé instantània, i hom no pot evitar de riure quan se sent el protagonista de les situacions que s’hi expliquen. Paul Reiser ( 1957 ) és un dels noms més importants de l’actual panorama audiovisual americà. Actor, productor i guionista de cinema i televisió, publicà Sobreviure en parella, convertint-se ràpidament en tot un fenomen social, arribant als més de dos milions d’exemplars venuts als Estats Units. Després ha publicat el seu segon llibre “Els fills i la mare que els va parir”, editat en aquesta mateixa col·lecció.

Humoristische schetsen van allerlei situaties binnen het huwelijk.

In the tradition of the #1 best-seller SeinLanguage, Bantam Books proudly presents the first book by Paul Reiser, television''s sharpest, funniest observer of love, marriage and other mysteries of life. A veteran comic performer, Reiser is best-known as the co-creator and star of the highly-rated NBC comedy, "Mad About You", which Time Magazine called "The season''s best new sitcom" in its 1992 debut. Every Thursday night more than twenty million viewers watch as Paul Reiser reveals the most intimate and hilarious scenes of a marriage. Now for the first time, Reiser brings his trademark wit to the page in a book that will delight his eagerly-awaiting audience, and anyone else who has ever fallen in love -- or tried not to. In Couplehood, a New York Times bestseller for more than 40 weeks, Reiser reflects on what it means to be half of a couple -- everything from the science of hand holding, to the technique of tag-team storytelling, to the politics of food and why it always seems to come down to chicken or fish.
