“They don’t make them like they used to” is such a truism in this era of whiplash-inducing trend cycles and films that inspire sequel chat despite the original’s critical drubbing. But I still found myself muttering that as I wandered through the look Hadley Hall Meares took back at Audrey Hepburn, the subject of multiple books (including one published this year) by her devoted sons. It’s been 33 years since the Breakfast at Tiffany’s star left us, but her influence lives on.
Also taken too soon was Steve Jobs, the Apple co-founder who died in 2011. No one needs to explain his significance at this point—you’re probably reading these words on a device he had an early hand in right now. But your preferred screen might have been from another company completely, Geoffrey Cain reminds us, as Jobs was booted from Apple in 1985. That professional strife pushed Jobs to new heights, Cain argues in his new book, Steve Jobs in Exile, which you’ll see in our exclusive excerpt. Being forced out of your job, then turning around and unveiling the iPhone? Guess they don’t make redemption stories like they used to, either.
