Segreti, bugie e cioccolato

Bratley Amy, 2014

Quando Ethan, l'amore della sua vita, l'ha lasciata senza una spiegazione da un giorno all'altro, Eve aveva il cuore a pezzi e pensava che non sarebbe mai più riuscita a essere felice, invece il tempo sembra aver curato le sue ferite e, pian piano, Eve è tornata a sorridere. Ora, a distanza di tre anni, ha un nuovo fidanzato, Joe, e sta per aprire la caffetteria dei suoi sogni. Insomma, le cose sembrano finalmente andare per il verso giusto. Almeno fino a quando Eve non si lascia convincere da Joe a partecipare a una gara culinaria organizzata dal giornale per cui il ragazzo lavora: ognuno dei partecipanti preparerà una cena a casa propria per gli altri concorrenti, i quali dovranno poi dare un voto al loro ospite. Tra mille dubbi, ansie e timori, Eve finisce per lanciarsi a capofitto nella sfida, e si mette ai fornelli. È intenta a preparare i suoi manicaretti, quando si ritrova davanti l'ultima persona al mondo che avrebbe desiderato invitare a cena: Ethan. Possibile che il destino abbia deciso di metterla di nuovo di fronte all'uomo che le ha spezzato il cuore? Подробнее

Alice nel paese delle meraviglie-Attraverso lo specchio

Carroll Lewis, 2014

A oltre un secolo dalla sua pubblicazione, Alice, come romanzo e come personaggio, conserva ancora intatta tutta la sua freschezza, incantando non solo i più giovani ma anche gli adulti, che nel suo mondo meraviglioso scoprono un altro sé, pronto a sfidare ardui giochi linguistici, entusiasmanti trucchi psicologici, situazioni impossibili che mettono in discussione la realtà e svelano l'irresistibile fascino dell'assurdo. In un romanzo in cui la sospensione dell'incredulità è d'obbligo, il gusto del gioco non può essere dimenticato e va riscoperto con occhi che sappiano guardare al di là del consueto. Perché qui è l'essenza della vita, e forse tra i sogni segreti di tanti c'è proprio la tana di un coniglio bianco in cui perdersi, uno specchio al di là del quale riscoprire la bellezza della vita reale. È letteratura per ragazzi? È un libro da leggere punto e basta. Premessa di Simona Vinci, introduzione e note di Paola Faini. Подробнее

Inizio tutto con un bacio

Dickinson Miranda, 2014

Romily lavora come autrice di musiche per la pubblicità e nel weekend si esibisce con una band ai matrimoni. Pochi giorni prima di Natale, dopo essersi lanciata in una disastrosa dichiarazione d'amore al suo migliore amico, incontra un affascinante sconosciuto tra le bancarelle del mercatino di Birmingham. Tutto accade in un attimo: i loro occhi si incrociano e, senza una ragione apparente, i due si scambiano un bacio appassionato. Un minuto dopo, l'uomo scompare e Romily, sopraffatta dall'emozione, non ha neppure il tempo di chiedere il suo nome. I mesi passano, ma per lei è impossibile dimenticare quel bacio. Così, con l'aiuto e il sostegno degli amici, decide di dedicare il suo ventinovesimo anno alla ricerca di chi, con un solo bacio, l'ha stregata. Per poter condividere i suoi pensieri e i suoi sentimenti crea un blog che, con il passare del tempo, ha sempre più successo, così come la sua carriera di cantante. Ma, nonostante le affannose ricerche, l'uomo del bacio sembra essersi dissolto nel nulla. Romily, ormai scoraggiata, ha quasi deciso di abbandonare il sogno di ritrovarlo, ma proprio in occasione di un importante matrimonio, tra la folla intravede l'affascinante sconosciuto, con un abito davvero elegante. Possibile che sia arrivata troppo tardi? I grandi amori non dovrebbero resistere a tutti gli scherzi del destino? O forse la risposta è un'altra e il vero amore è sempre molto più vicino di quanto si creda. Подробнее

Modernist Cuisine: At Home

Myhrvold Nathan, 2012

The culinary revolution that has transformed restaurant menus around the world is also making its way into home kitchens. The Cooking Lab, publisher of the encyclopedic six-volume set Modernist Cuisine, which immediately became the definitive reference for this revolution, has now produced a lavishly illustrated guide for home cooks, complete with all-new recipes tailored for cooking enthusiasts of all skill levels. Modernist Cuisine at Home, by Nathan Myhrvold with Maxime Bilet, is destined to set a new standard for home cookbooks. The authors have collected in this 456-page volume all the essential information that any cook needs to stock a modern kitchen, to master Modernist techniques, and to make hundreds of stunning recipes. The book includes a spiral-bound Kitchen Manual that reprints all of the recipes and reference tables on waterproof, tear-resistant paper. Drawing on the same commitment to perfection that produced Modernist Cuisine, Modernist Cuisine at Home applies innovations pioneered by The Cooking Lab to refine classic home dishes, from hamburgers and wings to macaroni and cheese. More than 400 new recipes are included, most with step-by-step photos that make it easy to bring dining of the highest quality to your own dinner table. Among the amazing techniques you'll find are: how to cook fish and steak perfectly every time, whether you're in the kitchen, the backyard, or tailgating in a parking lot; how to use a pressure cooker to make stocks in a fraction of the usual time while capturing more of the flavor; the secret to making quick, sumptuous caramelized vegetable soups and purees; how to outfit your home oven to make pizzas as crispy as you would get from a wood-fired brick ovenalong with recipes for: perfect eggs and breathtaking omelets that remove the guesswork for stress-free breakfasts, even for a crowd;gravies and a hollandaise sauce that are wonderfully rich, perfectly smooth, and never separate; a flawless cheeseburger and an ultrafrothy milk shake; chicken wings made better with Modernist techniques, plus seven great sauces and coatings for them;macaroni and cheese, including stove-top, baked, and fat-free versions, that can be made with any cheese blend you like, from gouda and cheddar to jack and Stilton. Cooking like a Modernist chef at home requires the right set of tools, but they're less expensive and easier to find than you might think. You'll also learn how to get the best out of the kitchen appliances you already own. Learn how to use your microwave oven to steam fish and vegetables to perfection, make exceptional beef jerky, and fry delicate herbs. The first 100 pages of the book are a trove of useful information, such as: how to test the accuracy of a thermometer, and why it's time to switch to digital; how to use (and not to use) a blowtorch to sear food fast and beautifully; how to marinate meats more quickly evenly by injecting the brine; the myriad uses for a whipping siphon beyond whipped cream; why those expensive copper pans may not be worth the price; how to deep-fry without a deep fryer; how to stop worrying and get the most out of your pressure cooker; how to cook sous vide at home with improvised equipment, a special-purpose water bath, or a home combi oven. Modernist Cuisine at Home is an indispensable guide for anyone who is passionate about food and cooking. Подробнее

Tom Kelley's Studio

Kelley Tom, 2014

The Godfather of Pin-Up. Kelley's stunning unseen nude photography. In 1948, celebrity photographer Tom Kelley took a photograph of an out of work actress; a nude posed with arm outstretched against a scarlet background. That actress was Marilyn Monroe. A few years later, this photo became Playboy's first ever centrefold in its inaugural issue in 1953. Kelley's photograph has become one of the most viewed nudes in history and, as Norman Mailer wrote, is 'breathtakingly beautiful'. This is just one photo from a vast, unseen archive of Kelley's visionary colour nude photography of the 1940s-60s. This exquisite volume offers a complete first look at this sumptuous nude photography. Подробнее

Gianni Berengo Gardin: A Retrospective

Curti Denis, 2013

The visionary and creative shots of day-to-day reality by a child of our time. Considered by many the most representative of Italian photographers, for almost fifty years Gianni Berengo Gardin has been a narrator attentive to everyday life in all its multiple aspects and in its evolution, having immortalized the story of Italy in over 1,250,000 pictures. For his work, he prefers black and white because color distracts the photographer and the viewer. And the images are what counts. People, objects, close-ups, historical monuments. Images that are concrete, never abstract, but above all real images. It's hard not to perceive the creative and visionary component of his snapshots, however much they are attentive to the day-to-day reality of humanity and its communities. Подробнее
