Download or read book William Mullan Odd Apples Special Edition written by and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A limited, large-format edition of this gorgeous study of apples, featuring a print from the series This large-format (9 x 11.25 inches) special edition of New York photographer William Mullan's (born 1989) Odd Applesincludes a print of the photograph titled Hidden Rosehoused in a pergamin paper sleeve inserted in the book. Mullan's obsession with apples began when he saw his first Egremont Russet at a Waitrose grocery store outside of London. Fascinated by its gnarled, potato-like appearance and shockingly fresh, nutty flavor, Mullan began searching for, and photographing, rare apple varieties. In Odd Apples, each apple is lovingly rendered and styled according to its individual "personality"--a combination of its looks and its flavors. The apples are set against complementary brightly colored backdrops; they are peeled or unpeeled, cut or whole, skin shriveled or perfectly smooth and shiny. Mullan embraces each apple's idiosyncratic aesthetic qualities completely.

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.

Download or read book The Botany of Desire written by Michael Pollan and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2002-05-28 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Pollan shines a light on our own nature as well as on our implication in the natural world.” —The New York Times “A wry, informed pastoral.” —The New Yorker The book that helped make Michael Pollan, the New York Times bestselling author of How to Change Your Mind, Cooked and The Omnivore’s Dilemma, one of the most trusted food experts in America Every schoolchild learns about the mutually beneficial dance of honeybees and flowers: The bee collects nectar and pollen to make honey and, in the process, spreads the flowers’ genes far and wide. In The Botany of Desire, Michael Pollan ingeniously demonstrates how people and domesticated plants have formed a similarly reciprocal relationship. He masterfully links four fundamental human desires—sweetness, beauty, intoxication, and control—with the plants that satisfy them: the apple, the tulip, marijuana, and the potato. In telling the stories of four familiar species, Pollan illustrates how the plants have evolved to satisfy humankind’s most basic yearnings. And just as we’ve benefited from these plants, we have also done well by them. So who is really domesticating whom?

Book excerpt: Nat Love has had enough adventures for ten men. From son of a former slave, to buffalo soldier, to gun hand, to Marshal for Hanging Judge Parker. Now, entering old age, he's a train porter. A job he's happy to have, but not exactly the cream of his life. And then an unlikely train robbery and a moment of bravery gives him an opportunity to relive his past and perhaps redeem his wayward son. He's still got the skills, but he's also older and stiffer, and a little less certain. He'll need his old pal, Choctaw, to help him track down the murderous Radiant Apple Gang, so named for the odd, glowing cheeks of the two brothers who lead it. They're not exactly the James Gang, but then again, Nat and Choctaw aren't exactly in their prime, even if they do have an automobile and an expense account. From the train tracks and cotton fields of East Texas, to the Oklahoma hills and a corrupt town, they'll end up in a desperate struggle for survival that includes gun play, an outlaw, who though dreadfully wounded, doesn't seem capable of dying, to a man gagging on dirty underpants. They'll need the right hat, the right guns, and plenty of rest. The biggest question is can Nat and his companion, Chocktaw, survive bullets and lumbago, and come out on top.

Shel Silverstein's incomparable career as a bestselling children's book author and illustrator began with Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back. He is also the creator of picture books including A Giraffe and a Half, Who Wants a Cheap Rhinoceros?, The Missing Piece, The Missing Piece Meets the Big O, and the perennial favorite The Giving Tree, and of classic poetry collections such as Where the Sidewalk Ends, A Light in the Attic, Falling Up, Every Thing On It, Don't Bump the Glump!, and Runny Babbit.
