Book excerpt: Unscheinbare Selbstverständlichkeiten neigen dazu, bei genauerem Hinsehen ein ganzes Universum faszinierender Details und ausgefallener Besonderheiten zu offenbaren. Man muss nur das richtige Auge dafür haben. Das ist bei William Mullan absolut der Fall. Durch seine Begegnung mit dem wechselhaften Erscheinungsbild eines Egremont-Russet-Apfels kam er auf den Geschmack. Seitdem erforscht er die gewaltige Bandbreite an Apfelsorten und fängt ihren jeweils eigenen Charme in liebevollen Porträts voll stilistischer Eleganz ein. Es ist gerade das seltsam Anmutende und bislang Unbekannte, das diese Aufnahmen zu faszinierenden Studien der vermeintlich alltäglichen Frucht macht. Mullan vertraut sich ganz ihrer eigenwilligen Ästhetik an und lädt in diesem attraktiven Geschenkbuch dazu ein, auf visuelle Entdeckungstour in die Welt des Apfels zu gehen.

Book Good Apple

  • Author : Elizabeth Passarella
  • Publisher : Thomas Nelson
  • Release : 2021-01-19
  • ISBN : 1400218829
  • Pages : 252 pages

Download or read book Good Apple written by Elizabeth Passarella and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “For a woman who thinks of herself as a New Yorker at this point, I buy a lot of clothes from companies named things like Shrimp & Grits. Why? Because identity is complicated.” Elizabeth Passarella is content with being complicated. She grew up in Memphis in a conservative, Republican family with a Christian mom and a Jewish dad. Then she moved to New York, fell in love with the city—and, eventually, her husband—and changed. Sort of. While her politics have tilted to the left, she still puts her faith first—and argues that the two can go hand in hand, for what it’s worth. In this sharp and slyly profound memoir, Elizabeth shares stories about everything from conceiving a baby in an unair-conditioned garage in Florida to finding a rat in her bedroom. She upends stereotypes about Southerners, New Yorkers, and Christians, making a case that we are all flawed humans simply doing our best. Good Apple is a hilarious, welcome celebration of the absurdity, chaos, and strange sacredness of life that brings us all together, whether we have city lights or starry skies in our eyes. More importantly, it’s about the God who pursues each of us, no matter our own inconsistencies or failures, and shows us the way back home.

Book The Turk Who Loved Apples

Download or read book The Turk Who Loved Apples written by Matt Gross and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While writing his celebrated Frugal Traveler column for the New York Times, Matt Gross began to feel hemmed in by its focus on what he thought of as “traveling on the cheap at all costs.” When his editor offered him the opportunity to do something less structured, the Getting Lost series was born, and Gross began a more immersive form of travel that allowed him to “lose his way all over the globe”--from developing-world megalopolises to venerable European capitals, from American sprawl to Asian archipelagos. And that’s what the never-before-published material in The Turk Who Loved Apples is all about: breaking free of the constraints of modern travel and letting the place itself guide you. It’s a variety of travel you’ll love to experience vicariously through Matt Gross--and maybe even be inspired to try for yourself.

Book Apples of Uncommon Character

Download or read book Apples of Uncommon Character written by Rowan Jacobsen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his classic A Geography of Oysters, Rowan Jacobsen forever changed the way America talks about its best bivalve. Now he does the same for our favorite fruit, showing us that there is indeed life beyond Red Delicious-and even Honeycrisp. While supermarkets limit their offerings to a few waxy options, apple trees with lives spanning human generations are producing characterful varieties-and now they are in the midst of a rediscovery. From heirlooms to new designer breeds, a delicious diversity of apples is out there for the eating. Apples have strong personalities, ranging from crabby to wholesome. The Black Oxford apple is actually purple, and looks like a plum. The Knobbed Russet looks like the love child of a toad and a potato. (But don't be fooled by its looks.) The D'Arcy Spice leaves a hint of allspice on the tongue. Cut Hidden Rose open and its inner secret is revealed. With more than 150 art-quality color photographs, Apples of Uncommon Character shows us the fruit in all its glory. Jacobsen collected specimens both common and rare from all over North America, selecting 120 to feature, including the best varieties for eating, baking, and hard-cider making. Each is accompanied by a photograph, history, lore, and a list of characteristics. The book also includes 20 recipes, savory and sweet, resources for buying and growing, and a guide to the best apple festivals. It's a must-have for every foodie.

Book Uncultivated

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andy Brennan
  • Publisher : Chelsea Green Publishing
  • Release : 2019-06-17
  • ISBN : 1603588450
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Uncultivated written by Andy Brennan and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, food is being reconsidered. It’s a front-and-center topic in everything from politics to art, from science to economics. We know now that leaving food to government and industry specialists was one of the twentieth century’s greatest mistakes. The question is where do we go from here. Author Andy Brennan describes uncultivation as a process: It involves exploring the wild; recognizing that much of nature is omitted from our conventional ways of seeing and doing things (our cultivations); and realizing the advantages to embracing what we’ve somehow forgotten or ignored. For most of us this process can be difficult, like swimming against the strong current of our modern culture. The hero of this book is the wild apple. Uncultivated follows Brennan’s twenty-four-year history with naturalized trees and shows how they have guided him toward successes in agriculture, in the art of cider making, and in creating a small-farm business. The book contains useful information relevant to those particular fields, but is designed to connect the wild to a far greater audience, skillfully blending cultural criticism with a food activist’s agenda. Apples rank among the most manipulated crops in the world, because not only do farmers want perfect fruit, they also assume the health of the tree depends on human intervention. Yet wild trees live all around us, and left to their own devices, they achieve different forms of success that modernity fails to apprehend. Andy Brennan learned of the health and taste advantages of such trees, and by emulating nature in his orchard (and in his cider) he has also enjoyed environmental and financial benefits. None of this would be possible by following today’s prevailing winds of apple cultivation. In all fields, our cultural perspective is limited by a parallel proclivity. It’s not just agriculture: we all must fight tendencies toward specialization, efficiency, linear thought, and predetermined growth. We have cultivated those tendencies at the exclusion of nature’s full range. If Uncultivated is about faith in nature, and the power it has to deliver us from our own mistakes, then wild apple trees have already shown us the way.
