    "Brilliantly researched, utterly gripping history: the first full account of a remarkable group of Jewish refugees-a top-secret band of brothers-who waged war on Hitler." -Alex Kershaw, New York Times best-selling author of The Longest Winter and TheLiberatorThe incredible World War II saga of the German-Jewish commandos who fought in Britain's most secretive special-forces unit-but whose story has gone untold until now June 1942. The shadow of the Third Reich has fallen across the European continent. In desperation, Winston Churchill and his chief of staff form an unusual plan: a new commando unit made up of Jewish refugees who have escaped to Britain. The resulting volunteers are a motley group of intellectuals, artists, and athletes, most from Germany and Austria. Many have been interned as enemy aliens, and have lost their families, their homes-their whole worlds. They will stop at nothing to defeat the Nazis. Trained in counterintelligence and advanced combat, this top-secret unit becomes known as X Troop. Some simply call them a "suicide squad." Drawing on extensive original research, including interviews with the last surviving members, Leah Garrett follows this unique band of brothers from Germany to England and back again, with stops at British internment camps, the beaches of Normandy, the battlefields of Italy and Holland, and the hellscape of Terezin concentration camp-the scene of one of the most dramatic, untold rescues of the war. For the first time, X Troop tells the astonishing story of these secret shock troops and their devastating blows against the Nazis."Garrett's detective work is stunning, and her storytelling is masterful. This is an original account of Jewish rescue, resistance, and revenge." -Wendy Lower, author of The Ravine and National Book Award finalist Hitler's Furies

    From the author of The Arsonists' City and The Twenty-Ninth Year, a new collection of poetry that traces the fragmentation of memory, archive, and family-past, present, future-in the face of displacement and war.A diaspora of memories runs through this poetry collection--a multiplicity of voices, bodies, and houses hold archival material for one another, tracing paths between Brooklyn, Beirut, and Jerusalem. Boundaries and borders blur between space and time and poetic form--small banal moments of daily life live within geopolitical brutalities and, vice versa, the desire for stability lives in familiarity with displacement.These poems take stock of who and what can displace you from home and from your own body--and, conversely, the kind of resilience, tenacity, and love that can bring you back into yourself and into the context of past and future generations. Hala Alyan asks, What stops you from transforming into someone or something else? When you have lived a life in flux, how do you find rest?

    Discover how to rethink your relationship with stress and overcome burnout, depression, and anxiety with this accessible health-meets-self-help guide.Drawing on years of experience as a renowned Harvard doctor and nationally recognized stress expert, Dr. Aditi Nerurkar has developed a science-backed approach to help us change our relationship with everyday stress. In her anticipated debut, Dr. Nerurkar offers both a mindset shift about stress and her simple yet powerful five resets--pillars of wisdom that bring together physiological and psychological coping skills and enable you to cope when things get hard.For Dr. Nerurkar, the first step toward a healthier mind and body is overcoming a common misperception about stress: that it's "bad." Stress is actually good for us, she argues, because it is a driving biological force and an adaptive response to life's many demands. We run into problems, however, when our stress is maladaptive and out of tune with the frequency of our lives, manifesting in burnout, fatigue, meltdowns, and depression. To keep stress at healthy levels, Dr. Nerurkar offers her five science-backed resets to help us in our challenging moments: Get Clear on What Matters MostFind Quiet in a Noisy WorldSync Your Brain and Your BodyCome Up for AirBring Your Best Self ForwardLike any good doctor, she prescribes real solutions. Some of her bite-size techniques include adopting the rule of two (because research shows that making more than two large decisions at a time is overwhelming), rejecting the myth of multitasking (it just doesn't work!) and experimenting with her Bookend Method (find a ritual to start and end each workday to create boundaries between your professional life and everything else).With these small, smart adjustments, we can change our relationship with stress, nurture our mental health, and live better every day.
