A memoir from one of the most private but intriguing political characters in modern U.S. politics; a collection of essays about ownership and consent from one of the most popular public figures on Instagram; and a haunting new novel from a National Book Award–winning author.

Here is a selection of new books being published this month.

Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds by Huma Abedin

Available Nov. 2

The former top aide to Hillary Clinton has been famously tight-lipped amid personal and professional controversies over the past decade and then some. Huma Abedin shares her story for the first time in this memoir, detailing moments from growing up in Saudi Arabia and then the U.S. and from a college internship in the East Wing in 1996, as well as offering a candid examination of her marriage to Anthony Weiner.

My Body by Emily Ratajkowski

Available Nov. 9

The model and activist Emily Ratajkowski is publishing a collection of essays—both about her own experiences as well as the issues of image, ownership, and money. “Anyone who ingests media the way that we do, we’re taking out [one’s] ability to control the narrative,” Ratajkowski said earlier this year at Fortune’s MPW Next Gen summit. “When you write your own story. That’s the ultimate way of regaining control.”

Powder Days: Ski Bums, Ski Towns, and the Future of Chasing Snow by Heather Hansman

Available Nov. 9

The title of this cultural history might initially spark thoughts of typical ski tropes and stereotypes. But author Heather Hansman, a former editor at both Ski and Powder magazines, takes a critical look at the sport and the industry, examining how skiing is affected by climate change, gender, race, economics, and psychology. While also serving partly as a memoir for Hansman, she traces the evolution of skiing’s popularity in the U.S., from casual weekends at family-owned lodges decades ago to luxury resorts catering to the private-jet crowd of today, nodding at the looming future for the industry as climate change escalates.

November Books 2021-The Sentence

The Sentence by Louise Erdrich

Available Nov. 9

One of the most anticipated novels this fall—the busiest season for book publishing—Pulitzer Prize winner Louise Erdrich’s latest work is described by the publisher as a “funny ghost story” set at a small independent bookstore, haunted by an annoying customer. But the novel goes much deeper on grief, isolation, and social justice: The Sentence is set between November 2019 and November 2020 in Minneapolis—a city still reckoning with the murder of George Floyd—and the book’s protagonist is a store employee who was incarcerated for years and survived mentally through reading.

November Books 2021-Bias

Bias Interrupted: Creating Inclusion for Real and for Good by Joan C. Williams

Available Nov. 16

In her her TEDx talk “Why Corporate Diversity Programs Fail”—attaining more than 1.1 million views to date—Joan C. Williams posits that mentorship programs still only help people navigate social infrastructures that are fundamentally unfair and that bias trainings are mostly ineffective, if not counterproductive. In Bias Interrupted, Williams, director of the Center for WorkLife Law and professor at the University of California, Hastings, outlines four key points where bias is transmitted in the workplace: hiring, performance reviews, compensation, and promotion. But there is hope, as she proposes “bias interrupters”: evidence-based, metrics-driven tools that can, over time, result in change.
