Praise for THIRD EAR: Reflections on the Art and Science of Listening: 

"THIRD EAR: Reflections on the Art and Science of Listening is a marvel – a beautifully-written, meticulously researched, and fascinating exploration of the transformative power of listening. If you’re anything like me, your copy will be dog-eared and underlined, like all of your favorite books.” —Adrienne Brodeur, author of Little Monsters

“Elizabeth Rosner’s Third Ear should be required for the entire human race. Rosner is one of the greatest writers and thinkers of our time—with insight into this century’s difficult socio-political and ethical questions. With clarity and intimacy, Rosner renders a sonic universe in which reciprocity connects all of life through deep listening. We are one small part of a large, delicate ecosystem—from the soil bioacoustics to the toxic pesticides we use, from the extinction of different species to the threat of our own. Third Ear gives us a second chance to look inside ourselves and find something human in us.” —E. J. Koh, author of The Liberators and The Magical Language of Others

"Elizabeth Rosner asks us to consider how listening can profoundly shape who we are, long before we really understand what it is we've heard." —Bonnie Tsui, bestselling author of Why We Swim and American Chinatown

“There is a world of knowledge of listening floating around us, in sound and on the page. No one has connected these stories to their own life and memories better than Elizabeth Rosner. I thought I knew this material after years of swimming in it, but she has revealed depths of sonic purpose through the unique connections she draws. This is a rare and profound book.” —David Rothenberg, author of Whale Music and Secret Sounds of Ponds

"[A] lyrical blend of memoir and science. . . . This soothes the soul." —Publishers Weekly

Alison Owings is the author of three previous oral history-based books: Frauen: German Women Recall the Third Reich (a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and a New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice), Indian Voices: Listening to Native Americans, and Hey, Waitress!: The USA from the Other Side of the Tray. A former television news writer at CBS News, she lives in San Francisco with her husband.

"[A] richly satisfying tapestry . . . the scintillating volume of knowledge put forth is well worth the reading journey. Not only does this book portray the brave determination of a man to rise above turmoil, but it offers copious nuggets for those not familiar with life on the bottom. Like tricks for finding good doorways to sleep in, how to surf bus rides for hours to get out of the cold, or why shelters can feel like prison if not run well. What shines through most is how Seymour’s heart softened toward others as he fought his way out of bare-knuckle survivor mode."—San Francisco Chronicle

"In this impressive book, author Alison Owings brings colorful anecdotes of Del's life and of his continued advocacy for the downtrodden in San Francisco. This is a memorable biography that proves to be both entertaining and life-affirming."—Booklist

“Alison Owings is a master of oral history…[She] is a great storyteller and in Mayor of the Tenderloin, she has a great story to tell.”—Dan Rather, author of What Unites Us

“Mayor of the Tenderloin is a charming, sometimes heartbreaking, tender, and inspiring story, important and beautifully written.”—Anne Lamott, author of Almost Everything 

“There are very few complex social dilemmas facing this country more front-burner than homelessness. Mayor of the Tenderloin provides a window as never before to this issue. These pages are filled with a reverence for complexity and the courage of tenderness. Alison Owings and her remarkable prose point to the passion and humanity of Del Seymour, and we see things anew. From addiction to eviction, from mental anguish to racial inequity, we are shown the contours of a social problem we thought we knew. No one becomes homeless because they run out of money. They become homeless because they run out of relationships.”—Gregory Boyle, founder of Homeboy Industries and author of Tattoos on the Heart

“With her pen at the ready and one eyebrow cocked, Alison Owings brings us deep into the prismatic life of the unforgettable Del Seymour. This book is as funny at times as it is harrowing, and as dedicated to Seymour’s unique journey as the multitudinous systemic failures that led to his addiction, sex trafficking, fractured relationships, and, of course, homelessness. Ownings has unsentimentally written a story of both struggle and hope in the absence of real structural humanity, one that winds from the Vietnam War through the crack epidemic, to the gleaming facades of the Bay Area’s boom, with Seymour squarely inventing his own path through it all. You won’t forget it.”—Lauren Sandler, author of This Is All I Got: A New Mother’s Search for Home

"When I met Del years ago, I had no idea of his incredible life journey but was struck by his compassion, humor, and grace. Today, San Francisco is in awe of the Mayor of the Tenderloin. His story—which could have been any of ours—gives hope that deep community divides can be bridged, and addiction and homelessness can be overcome."—San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu

“Mayor of the Tenderloin looks unflinchingly at the realities of a huge and expanding population left out and left behind by even our most progressive and enlightened social change movements—the institutional refugees commonly referred to as the homeless. Through examination of the life and redemptive struggles of a single individual, Del Seymour, Owings brilliantly highlights the strategic imperative of not only inclusion but the acquisition of agency by the homeless in resolving the issues and thereby diminishing the myriad costs so critically burdening both them and society.”—Harry Edwards, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus of Sociology at the University of California, Berkeley

“With every page, Mayor of the Tenderloin offers society a sobering sight that let Seymour and the Tenderloin speak for themselves while also presenting readers with tangible possibilities for how we might find a way out of a continuing social nightmare and restore the Tenderloin to its rightful and humane place among San Francisco's colorful fabric…A work produced out of radical listening, compassionate questioning, deft writing, and a genuine desire to give agency, space, and recognition to one of the Tenderloin's fiercest survivors, advocates, and protectors.”—Nigel De Juan Hatton, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Literature and Philosophy at University of California, Merced

"[A] richly satisfying tapestry . . . the scintillating volume of knowledge put forth is well worth the reading journey."

San Francisco Chronicle Reviews MAYOR OF THE TENDERLOIN

"In this tale that’s packed with nonstop action, the events of the War of 1812 are told through a human lens that eschews the glorification of battle and includes the role of Black people in the British and American armies. While the rollicking narrative is full of humor, it doesn’t shy away from hard questions. As Marissa contemplates the phrase 'we the people' in the opening line of the U.S. Constitution, she asks, 'Did Madison think that meant all the people?'...Timely and wildly entertaining."

Kirkus Reviews WHITE HOUSE ON FIRE!

“Relatable for kid readers, nicely nostalgic for adults, and all-around wonderful.”

Booklist Gives THAT ALWAYS HAPPENS SOMETIMES a Starred Review
