    • “Wow . . . a great book.” —Joe Rogan“Of all the books I've written, [The Business Secrets of Drug Dealing is] the one that I'm probably most proud of.” —Matt TaibbiThe Business Secrets of Drug Dealing tells the story of a hyper-observant, politically minded, but humorously pragmatic weed dealer who has spent a working life compiling rules for how to a) make money and b) avoid prison.Each rule shapes a chapter of this fast-paced outlaw tale, all delivered in his deliciously trenchant argot. Here are a few of them:• No guns but keep shooters.• Stay behind the white guy.• Don’t snitch.• Always have a job.• Be multi-sourced.• Get your money and get out.Part edge-of-the-seat suspense story, part how-to manual in the tradition of The Anarchist Cookbook, The Business Secrets of Drug Dealing is as scintillating as it is subversive. Just reading it feels illegal.

      Czym różni się dziennikarz popierający republikanów od tego, który stawia na demokratów? Co łączy konserwatywną sieć FOX z uchodzącą za postępową MSNBC? I czy na pewno media powinny budować kapitał na wzajemnej niechęci? Przed Państwem gorzki i pełen ironii audyt wielkiej korporacji Nienawiść sp. z o.o. Nagradzany amerykański reporter Matt Taibbi bezlitośnie rozprawia się z dziennikarskim bałaganem w USA i wnikliwie analizuje typy politycznej ortodoksji, które tylko pozornie się od siebie różnią. Dostaje się wszystkim po równo – bo jak inaczej traktować działania mediów, w których "różnorodność intelektualna" rozumiana jest jako "po jednym reprezentancie z każdej partii", nieuprzejmość stała się wymogiem, a dziennikarze porzucili zawodową bezstronność na rzecz politycznych agitacji. Szanowni Państwo, zapraszamy do reality show Ameryka kontra Ameryka! Wygrywają wszystkie stacje, przegrywają obywatele. Gwarantujemy – takiej porcji nienawiści nie zobaczycie nigdzie indziej.

      A Killing on Bay Street

      This riveting work of literary journalism delves into the roots and repercussions of the tragic killing of Eric Garner by New York City police. On July 17, 2014, Garner, a forty-three-year-old black man, died on a Staten Island sidewalk after an officer placed him in an illegal chokehold during an arrest for selling bootleg cigarettes. His final moments, captured on video, revealed his agonized last words, "I can't breathe," which became a rallying cry for the Black Lives Matter movement. A grand jury later declined to indict the officer involved. The author offers a deeply reported retelling that humanizes Garner, portraying him as a husband and father with a complicated personal history—neither villain nor victim, but a proud individual facing overwhelming challenges. The narrative also examines the broader conditions that allowed this tragedy to occur, featuring vivid depictions of life on the streets and within the flawed court system. The account highlights issues of policing, mass incarceration, and racial disparities in law enforcement. It critiques various figures, from the conservative district attorney to the progressive mayor, ultimately presenting a masterful narrative that confronts the human cost of a broken criminal justice system.

      A brilliantly illuminating and darkly comic tale of the ongoing financial and political crisis in America The financial crisis that exploded in 2008 isn't past but prologue. The grifter class--made up of the largest players in the financial industry and the politicians who do their bidding--has been growing in power, and the crisis was only one terrifying manifestation of how they've hijacked America's political and economic life. Matt Taibbi has combined deep sources, trailblazing reportage, and provocative analysis to create the most lucid, emotionally galvanizing account yet written of this ongoing American crisis. He offers fresh reporting on the backroom deals of the bailout; tells the story of Goldman Sachs, the -vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity-; and uncovers the hidden commodities bubble that transferred billions of dollars to Wall Street while creating food shortages around the world. This is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the labyrinthine inner workings of this country, and the profound consequences for us all.
