This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last book-length work of fiction by J. D. Salinger published in his lifetime collects two novellas about "one of the liveliest, funniest, most fully realized families in all fiction" (New York Times). These two novellas, set seventeen years apart, are both concerned with Seymour Glass--the eldest son of J. D. Salinger's fictional Glass family--as recalled by his closest brother, Buddy. "He was a great many things to a great many people while he lived, and virtually all things to his brothers and sisters in our somewhat outsized family. Surely he was all real things to us: our blue-striped unicorn, our double-lensed burning glass, our consultant genius, our portable conscience, our supercargo, and our one full poet..."
Download or read book Guerrilla Tacos written by Wesley Avila and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive word on tacos from native Angeleno Wes Avila, who draws on his Mexican heritage as well as his time in the kitchens of some of the world's best restaurants to create taco perfection. In a town overrun with taco trucks, Wes Avila's Guerrilla Tacos has managed to win almost every accolade there is, from being crowned Best Taco Truck by LA Weekly to being called one of the best things to eat in Los Angeles by legendary food critic Jonathan Gold. Avila's approach stands out in a crowded field because it's unique: the 50 base recipes in this book are grounded in authenticity but never tied down to tradition. Wes uses ingredients like kurobata sausage and sea urchin, but his bestselling taco is made from the humble sweet potato. From basic building blocks to how to balance flavor and texture, with comic-inspired illustrations and stories throughout, Guerrilla Tacos is the final word on tacos from the streets of L.A.

Download or read book Banned Booty written by Steve Maloney and published by . This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American travel has changed radically since September 11. The Banned Booty series captures a small aspect of this change. What used to be a routine matter, checking into a flight, passing through the final magnetometer and bringing on board nail files, scissors and children's toy guns, has been transformed into a high-security procedure. We all learned to surrender to the new ways, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers searching through our carry-on bags, the shrill beep of the highly sensitive metal detectors, barefooted travelers, steel knives swapped for plastic ones - all this became normalcy. The contemporary artist Steve Maloney is fascinated with the relentless search for pointy objects all over America. Is it a nail file or a threat to homeland security? Or both? As an artist and an American citizen, he complies with and supports the security efforts, but he couldn't help but notice and wonder. It seemed to him that in every nation travelers were becoming more conscious of their fellow passengers and in particular their belongings. Curious to find out exactly what kind of items were the latest taboo, Steve Maloney started to shop for TSA confiscated goods. Through government agencies he bought run-of-the-mill banned booty such as scissors, Swiss Army knives and nail files. The more surprising paraphernalia were toy shot guns, cheese knifes and shredders, a Chinese frying pan, corn-on-the-cob skewers and deer antlers. "What were they thinking when they declared these items as weapons?" Steve Maloney's Banned Booty series is a testament to the way we have magnified the meaning of these common items. It's serious and it's lighthearted. How can you not crack a smile when you look at some of the Banned Booty and wonder, How did we get here? Visit the author's website at www.stevemaloney.com
Book Synopsis Family and Other Accidents by : Shari Goldhagen
Download or read book Family and Other Accidents written by Shari Goldhagen and published by Crown. This book was released on 2006-04-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Separated by a decade and 200 points on their SAT scores, Jack and Connor Reed have a life in the Cleveland suburbs held together by spit and Chinese takeout. With his self-absorbed, over-the-hill parents dead by his twenty-fifth birthday, Jack has abandoned his own plans and returned to his parents’ house where he works marathon hours at his late father’s law firm, beds young paralegals, and throws money and advice at his teenage brother. Connor meanwhile wants nothing more than to leave the Midwest, start a family early, and do everything the way his parents didn’t. But over the years, through the car crashes and bad breakups, the illnesses and illicit affairs, both realize that while circumstances are sometimes beyond control, there are always choices to be made. Family and Other Accidents tells the story of these brothers from their viewpoints as well as from those of their girlfriends, wives, and children. It is a story of what it means to be a family, to love unconditionally in the face of confusion, anger, and regret. Shari Goldhagen’s debut is a finely nuanced, universally resonant portrait of the ties, however strange or awkward, that bind families together through the decades.
Book Synopsis Nightingale Wood by : Stella Gibbons

Book excerpt: A sly and satirical fairytale by the author of Cold Comfort Farm Unavailable for decades, Stella Gibbons's Nightingale Wood is a delightfully modern romance ripe for rediscovery by the many fans of Cold Comfort Farm. Poor, lovely Viola has been left penniless and alone after her late husband's demise, and is forced to live with his family in their joyless home. Its occupants are nearly insufferable: Mr. Withers is a tyrannical old miser; Mrs. Withers dismisses her as a common shop girl; and Viola's sisters-in-law, Madge and Tina, are too preoccupied with their own troubles to give her much thought. Only the prospect of the upcoming charity ball can lift her spirits-especially as Victor Spring, the local prince charming, will be there. But Victor's intentions towards the young widow are, in short, not quite honorable.

A fantastic utopia, except for a few things: Angels can Fall, and that Fall is like a nuclear bomb in both the physical and metaphysical worlds. And human beings remain human, with all their kindness and greed and passions and murderous intent. Jack the Ripper stalks the streets of this London too. But this London has an Angel. The Angel of the Crows. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
