On the side, she brokered marriages and started bank accounts for new emigres, presiding over all from her spotless pastry table. Katishoffers deliciously simple Russian country cooking enveloped in a warm and cheering narrative, tender as the crust of Katish's own piroshky. It includes Katish's Cheesecake, one of the most beloved recipes ever published inGourmetmagazine.

Book excerpt: "People, not even knowing who I was, have called me almost every derogatory name ever thought up-some were remarkably creative, but most simply relied on "bitch"-which was perfectly fine with me. Perhaps it was because I didn't live my life trying to wring pleasure from others as some people did. Never. My whole life was based on contingency, so I was out for myself. Out for survival." Welcome to Lake Hollow, a town with a secret that lies within its residents. After a rough and abusive upbringing, seventeen-year-old Lanx-Australis Sumner runs away from home to hide out in a town that was supposed to be a teen paradise, only to discover it was quite the opposite. When teens begin to disappear as they had the year before, she realizes there is something wrong and somebody is also after her. Things go from bad to worse as she valiantly struggles with both inner and outer conflicts that always seem on the verge of destroying her. The boys in town take an interest in Lanx, but can she find love after what she's been through? Ages 13 and up.

Download or read book The Book of Rumi written by Rumi and published by Hampton Roads Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Pullman, author of 'His Dark Materials' trilogy, has remarked that "after nourishment, shelter, and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world." This new collection of Rumi stories fills that need. This fresh prose translation of 105 short teaching stories by Rumi, which form the core of the six-volume Masnavi, explores the hidden spiritual aspects of everyday experience. Rumi transforms the seemingly mundane events of daily life into profound Sufi teaching moments. These prose gems open the mystical portal to the world of the ancient mystic. These stories include well-known and popular tales such as "Angel of Death," "The Sufi and His Cheating Wife," "Moses and the Shepherd," "Chickpeas," and "The Greek and Chinese Painters" as well as the less commonly quoted parables: "The Basket Weaver," "The Mud Eater," and "A Sackful of Pebbles." Rumi's voice alternates between playful and authoritative, whether he is telling stories of ordinary lives or inviting the discerning reader to higher levels of introspection and attainment of transcendent values. Mafi's translations delicately reflect the nuances of Rumi's poetry while retaining the positive tone of all of Rumi's writings, as well as the sense of suspense and drama that mark the essence of the Masnavi.
