Book Gastrology  Or Life of Pleasure Or Study of the Belly Or Inquiry Into Dinner

Download or read book Gastrology Or Life of Pleasure Or Study of the Belly Or Inquiry Into Dinner written by Archestratus (of Gela.) and published by Quale Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, Gian Lombardo has culled together previous translations of Archestratos?s work to provide a version that best captures the author?s simultaneously dogmatically authoritative and irreverent tome. One could read Gastrology as a cookbook, if one could find pig-fish (?Braise its head but add no seasoning?) or Toronaian saw-tooth shark (?Sprinkle with cumin and roast with a pinch of salt?). It?s also a travelogue of ancient Greek port-towns, and a guide to the prejudices of the day (?Don?t let any Siracusan, or Italian for that matter, get near when you?re cooking?). Most of all, this book is a testament to the ways in which, since the beginnings of Western civilization, people have been taking serious and sensual pleasure in the food they eat.

Book Rules of Solitude

    Book Details:
  • Author : Eugène Savitzkaya
  • Publisher : Quale Press
  • Release : 2004
  • ISBN : 0974450308
  • Pages : 70 pages

Download or read book Rules of Solitude written by Eugène Savitzkaya and published by Quale Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Prose. Translation. "'Radiant as the helix, perishable as the potato,' the prose poems in RULES OF SOLITUDE require you to read slowly -- but not for its syntactical complexity. The very simplicity of the language points to something bigger, starker and more beautiful lurking beyond the page. This book explores the interconnectedness of the universe and individual isolation. If Duino Elegies were prose blocks, if Rilke's penchant for the cosmic were tempered by the grotesque, you could then achieve the delineations of the soul etched by Savitzkaya.Eugene Savitzkaya was born in Saint-Nicolas, Belgium, in 1955. Among his published works are several books of poetry and seven novels. Translated from the French by Gian Lombardo.

Book Boxing Inside the Box

Download or read book Boxing Inside the Box written by Holly Iglesias and published by Quale Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonfiction. Literary Criticism. Poetics.BOXING INSIDE THE BOX is a creative/critical work proposing "women's prose poetry" as a form distinct from that widely touted as "definitive" in journals, anthologies and critical texts. Iglesias believes that the shape of prose poems--a simple box--serves as a powerful metaphor for gender roles that constrain and contain women. Unlike most of their male counterparts who produce disembodied, ironic and surrealist prose poems, women write from within this genre-defiant box works that are at once lyrical and embattled, sensual and menacing.

Book You Had Me at Pet Nat

Download or read book You Had Me at Pet Nat written by Rachel Signer and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the publisher of Pipette Magazine, discover a natural wine-soaked memoir about finding your passion—and falling in love. It was Rachel Signer's dream to be that girl: the one smoking hand-rolled cigarettes out the windows of her 19th-century Parisian studio apartment, wearing second-hand Isabel Marant jeans and sipping a glass of Beaujolais redolent of crushed roses with a touch of horse mane. Instead she was an under-appreciated freelance journalist and waitress in New York City, frustrated at always being broke and completely miserable in love. When she tastes her first pétillant-naturel (pét-nat for short), a type of natural wine made with no additives or chemicals, it sets her on a journey of self-discovery, both deeply personal and professional, that leads her to Paris, Italy, Spain, Georgia, and finally deep into the wilds of South Australia and which forces her, in the face of her "Wildman," to ask herself the hard question: can she really handle the unconventional life she claims she wants? Have you ever been sidetracked by something that turned into a career path? Did you ever think you were looking for a certain kind of romantic partner, but fell in love with someone wild, passionate and with a completely different life? For Signer, the discovery of natural wine became an introduction to a larger ethos and philosophy that she had long craved: one rooted in egalitarianism, diversity, organics, environmental concerns, and ancient traditions. In You Had Me at Pét-Nat, as Signer begins to truly understand these revolutionary wine producers upending the industry, their deep commitment to making their wine with integrity and with as little intervention as possible, she is smacked with the realization that unless she faces, head-on, her own issues with commitment, she will not be able to live a life that is as freewheeling, unpredictable, and singular as the wine she loves.

Why are many of us subject to so-called yo-yo dieting, in a never-ending S-curve of fluctuating pounds as measured by a scale? Why do people with good intentions work so hard to become thinner, only to end up frustrated and defeated? By exploring these and similar questions around the issues of exercise, nutrition, and health, Ashly Torian developed the E.N.D. (Embrace~Nourish~Digest), a sustainable, natural way to a healthier lifestyle. The E.N.D. is not a weight-loss program. Its not a fad diet. But by integrating the elements of Embrace~Nourish~Digest into your daily life, you will lose the weight and it will stay off. If you are in an unhealthy relationship with food, the E.N.D. will help you find the balance thats best for optimizing your bodys potential. Thats because the E.N.D. is a mindset, a way to think about who you are, what you want to do, and the body you need to do it.

Book Manresa

  • Author : David Kinch
  • Publisher : Ten Speed Press
  • Release : 2013-10-22
  • ISBN : 1607743981
  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book Manresa written by David Kinch and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-awaited cookbook by one of the San Francisco Bay Area's star chefs, David Kinch, who has revolutionized restaurant culture with his take on the farm-to-table ethic and focus on the terroir of the Northern California coast. Since opening Manresa in Los Gatos in 2002, award-winning Chef David Kinch has done more to create a sense of place through his food—specifically where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the sea—than any other chef on the West Coast. Manresa’s thought-provoking dishes and unconventional pairings draw on techniques both traditional and modern that combine with the heart of the Manresa experience: fruits and vegetables. Through a pioneering collaboration between farm and restaurant, nearby Love Apple Farms supplies nearly all of the restaurant’s exquisite produce year round. Kinch's interpretation of these ingredients, drawing on his 30 years in restaurants as well as his far-flung and well-fed travels, are at the heart of the Manresa experience. In Manresa, Chef Kinch details his thoughts on building a dish: the creativity, experimentation and emotion that go into developing each plate and daily menu—and how a tasting menu ultimately tells a deeper story. A literary snapshot of the restaurant, from Chef Kinch's inspirations to his techniques, Manresa is an ode to the mountains, fields, and sea; it shares the philosophies and passions of a brilliant chef whose restaurant draws its inspiration globally, while always keeping a profound connection to the people, producers, and bounty of the land that surrounds it.
