And if you can't, just think of your kids--all the time they have to spend in tight spaces--like cars, planes, trains, the doctor's office, the grocery store, being sick or housebound, waiting in line.

When someone says they live in a small house or apartment, the image that comes to mind is all too often negative—cramped, cluttered, or confining. But America’s leading small space designer, Libby Langdon, knows just how to counter that stereotype. In Libby Langdon’s Small Space Solutions, she finally offers a practical, user-friendly guide to decorating small spaces so they look stylish, beautiful, and larger than their actual dimensions. Setting out from the premise that it doesn’t take lots of money to achieve a warm and inviting atmosphere, she delivers practicality and inspiration that’s affordable. Armed with a bit of basic design knowledge and a few of Libby’s tricks of the trade, any small-space dweller can learn how to create gracious, inviting small-space homes that are also functional to a tee. Each chapter addresses the most common problems encountered in a particular space—living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, office, or hall—and presents solutions and sample layouts, as well as numerous color photos showing transformed spaces “before” and “after” that illustrate small-space design tips. Libby also spells out the top ten mistakes people make in small spaces, and provides step-by-step instructions for painting and hanging art. An invaluable resource for apartment dwellers, first-time homeowners, and anyone looking to downsize, Libby Langdon’s Small Space Solutions proves that living with less doesn’t mean living without luxury.

Big Things in Tight Spaces is a picaresque novel on sex and pornography, marijuana, lying, stress, dancing, Africa, Amsterdam, King David, sick bowels, Hank Aaron, American politics, urban trees, and Crazy Horse. The book is about a relentlessly ambitious character trying to fit everything that interests and excites him into a space that doesn't allow for its bulk. At the emotional center of the story is a marriage that keeps shifting over time in reaction to the character's whims and adventures. Fire, the protagonist, wants his marriage to be open, but he thinks he can be faithful at the same time. He refers to it as "a new paradigm of marriage." The hero is earnestly greedy. The writing style is an attempt to fuse the psychological nuance of Saul Bellow with the narrative speed of Elmore Leonard, but in its own rhythmic way, the beat of the sentences switching from 4/4 to 3/4 to 5/4, depending upon the mood of the moment.
