Book excerpt: Love is a many splendored thing, as we are reminded in a wonderful old film with William Holden and Jennifer Jones. Many ordinary people in the course of their lives find themselves in an extraordinary romantic situation. It may be on the loading dock, in an office, at a party, or just by a chance meeting. Who can really say how a romance happens? Most discard these romances after they realize that continuing down that path might ruin their marriage or break up their lover’s marriage or for a number of other reasons. This story is about an Italian named Mario. Mario is one of those people who are not looking for romance but fall into the love trap; in this case a one-way love that he runs away from because of its trauma to him. The reader gets to travel with Mario to some exciting tourist places with exotic foods as he encounters other women and tries to shake off his love for Patricia, a married woman.

We all live in the same building, and I was very expressly warned to keep my hands to myself. In other words, Cara told me she’d cut off my balls if I went there. But when Declan asks me to spend time with Bree so he can convince her sister to move in with him, I can’t say no. I can do this. I can be her friend. I can ignore her lush lips, her killer curves and just be there for her, any way she needs me. I’m doing it too, never crossing that line…until she knocks on my door at midnight. Now I want to make her mine, but I’m not just up against our family, I’m also fighting Bree’s demons. And I’m pretty sure her sister runs faster than me, even in her stilettos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are what we eat—not just physiologically, but culturally. This collection of cross-cultural, generational essays, and accompanying recipes shows the profound importance of food dishes within American women's lives. For people of every ethnicity, food provides much more than mere fuel for the body—it contains an invisible component that ties families and generations together with the continuity of shared experience. And for the women who are entrusted with the responsibility of keeping that priceless cultural thread intact, family recipes embody tradition, bridge generation gaps, and erase age differences. This book is organized around 50 short essays and recipes presented by women from multicultural backgrounds and dissimilar walks of life. The chapters depict the paths of these individuals in their lives and the details of how they acquired their precious family recipes. The stories document how women universally use inherited family recipes to remember and memorialize key women in their lives and to aid and measure their own growth and development. Included are reminiscences of an Egyptian aunt, a poor mother from Australia, a Katrina-flooded New Orleans family, Turkish relations, Chinese mothers, and Indian grandmothers.

Download or read book Into the Great Wide Ocean written by Sönke Johnsen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A seagoing scientist explores how life thrives in one of the most mysterious environments on Earth The open ocean, far from the shore and miles above the seafloor, is a vast and formidable habitat that is home to the most abundant life on our planet, from giant squid and jellyfish to anglerfish with bioluminescent lures that draw prey into their toothy mouths. Into the Great Wide Ocean takes readers inside the peculiar world of the seagoing scientists who are providing tantalizing new insights into how the animals of the open ocean solve the problems of their existence. Sönke Johnsen vividly describes how life in the water column of the open sea contends with a host of environmental challenges, such as gravity, movement, the absence of light, pressure that could crush a truck, catching food while not becoming food, finding a mate, raising young, and forming communities. He interweaves stories about the joys and hardships of the scientists who explore this beautiful and mysterious realm, which is under threat from human activity and rapidly changing before our eyes. Into the Great Wide Ocean presents the sea and its inhabitants as you have never seen them before and reminds us that the rules of survival in the open ocean, though they may seem strange to us, are the primary rules of life on Earth.
