Here’s a treat for Roches fans, past, present, and future: the sui generis folk-rock trio’s just released boxed set, Runs in the Family. It compiles remastered versions of Maggie, Suzzy, and Terre Roche’s first four albums (including their wondrous Robert Fripp-produced eponymous 1979 debut), along with their penultimate record, Can We Go Home Now, from 1995, and a couple of previously unreleased tracks. There’s a wealth of incisive songwriting, glorious harmonies, emotional heartbreak, and wry humor, and it still sounds fresh—how great to get (re)acquainted with “The Married Men,” “Mr. Sellack,” “Big Nuthin’,” “Hammond Song,” and the rest. Terre Roche will be marking the box’s release with a New York appearance—songs, Q&A, signing—at Rough Trade Below, in Rockefeller Center, this coming Wednesday, September 23.

If you have ever seen the newsreel footage—easily available on YouTube—of the massive Hindenburg airship attempting to dock in Lakehurst, New Jersey, on May 6, 1937, the image is likely seared into your memory: the German zeppelin suddenly explodes in a gigantic inferno, screams are heard, and the announcer is near tears. Catherine Grace Katz re-creates these moments and the aftermath in poignant detail, but what makes Shadow Before the Flame so good is her history of the zeppelin: invented by Count Zeppelin in the early 20th century, the romance of airship travel, the stories of the passengers who died and those who did not, and how this event helped shape news reporting and, in hindsight, became a milestone on the path to World War II. This is narrative history at its best. ($38, penguinrandomhouse.com) —Jim Kelly

The board game Clue is full of intrigue, sleuthing, and, well, murder. But Jonathan Lynn’s 1985 film has something the popular detective game never did: Tim Curry and his comedically talented co-stars—Madeline Kahn, Lesley Ann Warren, Eileen Brennan, Chirstopher Lloyd, Michael McKean, and Martin Mull—who turn a whodunit into a screwball comedy. Invited to an eerie mansion under the guise of a dinner party, they each receive a murder weapon upon arrival, the lights turn off, and the game begins. Clue hit theaters in 1985 with three distinct endings but didn’t find success until it was released on VHS with all three endings spliced together. The multi-option finale makes the film riveting, yes, but Clue’s true genius, I say, lies on Lynn and John Landis’s humorous script—equal parts slapstick and deadpan. (apple.com) —Eve Eismann

It’s impossible to know, with total certainty, where to take a cool friend for dinner in New York. What you find elegant they may find stuffy. That hot new restaurant you read about may just elicit an eye roll, even though it was a very difficult reservation to get in the first place. My advice? Take said friend to Sushi You on East 51st Street—and you will be free from such mortal concerns. On a television above the bar, Hollywood stars advertise whiskey and cars on a loop of Japanese commercials from the 80s. Below it, Chef Mika serves the kind of rolls that come with one stipulation: “No sauce.” You would never need it, anyway. (sushiyou.com) —Victoria Herman

New York City is home to many cultural institutions. The department store on Fifth Avenue wedged between 57th and 58th Streets, Bergdorf Goodman, is one of them. Assouline’s latest volume, Very Bergdorf, proves as much. Written by the design editor of New York magazine and Curbed, Wendy Goodman, the stunning coffee-table book traces the store’s 125-year history. Goodman writes in magnificent detail about the opulent window displays, room interiors, and, most notably, the people (including the designers, clients, salespeople, and photographers) that made the store a landmark. In true Bergdorf fashion, the book’s cover and spine feature the signature font and deep purple that’s usually reserved for its shopping bags. ($120, assouline.com) —Gabriella Maestri
