Chan D: China – Das Kochbuch

China – Das Kochbuch

*Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize* 'A fascinating exploration of the linkages between ancestral inheritance, diasporic belonging, and our climate future... I read it in one sitting, which took me on a moving and often unexpected journey' Aube Rey Lescure 'Part of me knew what the hungry ghosts wanted all along, what they still want. It is not vengeance. No, they want something else, but we refuse to listen. They want us to face up to our broken obligations.' Every spring during the Qingming Festival, people return to their home villages in China to sweep the tombs of their ancestors, making offerings of food and incense to prevent them from becoming hungry ghosts that could cause misfortune. Yet for the past century, a time ruptured by war and revolution, many tombs have been left unattended. Following a record year of wildfires, Alice Mah returns to her family's rice village in South China, and discovers that her ancestors are almost forgotten, and there are no tombs left to sweep. Instead, there are incalculable clan debts to be paid. Here Mah chronicles her journey from the rice villages of South China to her home in post-industrial England, through the Chinatowns of Western Canada where she grew up, to the isles and industry of Scotland where she now lives. As years pass and fires rage on, she becomes increasingly troubled by her ancestors' neglected graves. Her research on pollution gives way to growing eco-anxiety, culminating in a crisis of spiritual belief. A haunting blend of memoir, cultural history and environmental exploration, Red Pockets confronts the hungry ghosts of our neglected ancestors, while searching for an acceptable offering. What do we owe to past and future generations? What do we owe to the places that we inhabit?

An Offering

Red Pockets

'Ernst, ironisch, lesenswert.' Der SPIEGELLola ist Deutsche. Und sie ist Jüdin. Was für sie normal schien, wird nach einem antisemitischen Angriff ihr gegenüber zu einem schmerzhaften Widerspruch. Sie muss sich fragen: Wer bestimmt darüber, wer wir sind? Unsere Herkunft, unsere Familie, wildfremde Menschen? Lola begibt sich auf eine Suche zu sich selbst und ihrer jüdischen Identität, die sie von Berlin nach Tel Aviv führt - ein Tel Aviv während des Gazakriegs 2014. ¿Winternähe¿ erzählt eindringlich und mitreißend vom Moment, der das Ende der Sicherheit markiert: nicht nur für Lola, sondern für Jüdinnen und Juden weltweit. Ein prophetisches Buch.

Der kleine Dünenkiosk auf Sylt

'A series of intelligent and fiery essays' The Sunday Times 'A landmark in British food writing' Jonathan Nunn 'Makes you laugh, think, and get a little angry' iPaper 'I started stitching together my story through a different, universal language: food.' An A-Z of Chinese Food (Recipes Not Included) is not a recipe book, but a deliberate 'anti-glossary' - a delectable edible anthology that serves up Chinese flavour beyond just its taste. Jenny Lau always found herself sitting between cultures, connected to both east and west. Hungry to understand herself, she threw herself into researching the Chinese food of her heritage. The result is An A-Z of Chinese Food - a surprising, unputdownable and deliciously enriching anthology that uses food to explore who we are and how we relate to the world. From A is for Authentic, breaking down our assumptions of who 'owns' what cuisine, to R is for Rice Cooker, a humorous entry from the point of view a hard-working kitchen appliance that has seen a family through its ups and downs, An A-Z of Chinese Food will change the way you think about, see, and eat, food. 'Lau's writing makes you laugh, think, and get a little angry - sometimes all at once. She tackles serious topics such as cultural appropriation, colonisation, racism and fetishisation in Chinese food with a lightness that never undermines their gravity' ANGELA HUI for iPaper 'I feel seen... I feel called out... I feel educated... I feel comforted and satiated. This is the book I needed growing up. Everyone should read this book!' JENNIFER LI, @bookmarkonthewall, book blogger 'A worthwhile and thoughtful corrective to many of the myths and over-simplifications about Chinese food in the West. Lau poses some great questions, which stayed with me long after I'd finished reading' BEE WILSON for The Sunday Times 'Using the universal language of food, Lau rips through an astonishing list of subjects with a uniquely original style. A must-read for lovers of food yes, but also lovers of exciting, daring writing' FOYLES Booksellers 'A groundbreaking rhapsody of a book, that brings something brand new to the canon of diasporic food writing. An A-Z that shines completely new light on Chinese culinary heritage, with an immediacy and spirited reverence that is a joy to read. Jenny Lau is a compelling and expressive storyteller: intricately weaving personal memoir, extensively researched cultural history and satirical humour with commanding eloquence. An instant classic from an essential new voice.' GURDEEP LOYAL, food &amp; travel writer 'An A-Z of Chinese Food is a landmark in British food writing, somewhere between a book, a magazine, and a treatise, but completely its own thing. Jenny has the rare ability to dissect unwieldy matters of identity, race and culture with the lightness of touch that all serious topics need, combatting preconceived notions about Chinese cuisine with immaculate research and subversive humour. This book is a tonic to the mainstream of food writing' JONATHAN NUNN 'A leading light in the British Chinese community' FUCHSIA DUNLOP

A delectable collection that serves up Chinese flavour beyond its taste

Das Erzengel-Komplott

Vom Werben um die eigene FrauSeit fünfzig Jahren sind sie verheiratet. Dann geht er weg, nach Indien. Sie reist ihm nach, besorgt und wütend. Er: Viktor Goll, genannt Vigo, Leiter einer Denkfabrik für Abrüstung. Sie: Terese Weiler, Kinder- und Jugendtherapeutin. Was sie teilen, ist fast nur noch das Gefühl, aus dem andern jeweils das Schlechteste herauszuholen.&nbsp; 
Sollen sie zusammen alt werden? Die Frage ist plötzlich unausweichlich. Gehen oder bleiben? In Indien weiß Terese, dass sie Vigo verlassen muss. Als er um eine letzte Chance bittet, antwortet sie: 'Was du tun kannst, damit ich zurückkomme? Von dir absehen. Einmal im Leben.' 
Worauf Vigo einen Roman zu schreiben beginnt, erzählt aus der Sicht seiner Frau, ihre ganze gemeinsame Geschichte.
