Bourdain Anthony: Kitchen Confidential

Kitchen Confidential

25th Anniversary Edition

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on Chaos or Community

A Memoir of Loss and Denial

Himmler’s Curtains

An extraordinary first-hand account of Russia's descent into totalitarianism, paranoia and madness. Marc Bennetts, Russia correspondent for The Times, moved to Russia in the final years of President Yeltsin's rule - settling in what was then the most exciting new free country in the world after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Thirty years later, The Times pulled him out of Russia over concerns for his security. He is now banned by the Kremlin. His Russian wife and Russian-born daughter, meanwhile, have returned to Moscow, a place he may never be able to go to again. Beginning with the Prodigy's legendary concert in Red Square, which seemed to signal a new era of freedom for the Russian people, and ending with the author narrowly escaping death under Russian fire in Eastern Ukraine, this book is a unique and personal diary of a descent into totalitarianism, from a man whom in his own words, once loved Russia. He witnessed the often-terrifying events in Russia up close, observing how slowly but surely freedoms were stripped away and how the Kremlin's ubiquitous propaganda warped minds and fomented hatred of Putin's foes, both real and imagined. Bennetts meets a vast array of characters, from Russian MPs, Chechnyan rebels, influential Russian Orthodox Church officials and violent Kremlin activists to opposition figures and a Siberian shaman. In this extraordinary panorama of a place gone mad, he shows exactly how a democracy becomes a totalitarian state, as democracies around the world elect strongmen as their leaders. This book shows how easily it can happen.

Witnessing Russia's Spiral into Madness Under Putin

The Descent

An overachiever must decide if risking her heart by working with her former crush turned enemy is worth the reward in this snappy rom-com, perfect for fans of Tweet Cute and Excuse Me While I Ugly Cry. High school senior Autumn Reeves has been waitlisted at her dream school. Determined to move to the top of the list, she must find a way to stand out. When a promposal she planned for a friend has half the senior class asking for her help, a brilliant business idea that will look great on her application is born: Promposal Queen. Autumn has no clue how to start a business, so she joins the Young Black Entrepreneurs group and finds herself face-to-face with Mekhi Winston, the boy whose unexpected freshman-year kiss-a kiss that meant everything to her and nothing to him-cost Autumn her best friend. He's the only person with the experience to help her, but how can she possibly trust him? With her dreams on the line, Autumn's willing to risk it. After all, Mekhi could be a good business partner without being a guy she would ever let near her heart again. But when working with Mekhi jeopardizes her only chance at rekindling a friendship with her ex-best-friend, and secrets long buried threaten to ruin Promposal Queen, another broken heart may be the least of her worries--her entire future is on the line.

Promposal

Forgotten Wisdom for Modern Times

Homemaking and Housekeeping

'"I liked the Jewish jokes," she says. "Oh, it's OK", I say. "I'm allowed to make them."Her eyes light up. And so it all begins.'When Max meets Eliana, a dazzling modern Orthodox Jewish girl, in a bar in Edinburgh one night, he never expected it kickstart an agonising identity crisis. While their connection is instant and deep, Max discovers a devastating truth: that to millions around the world, including the girl he's fallen for, he was deemed non-Jewish. Determined to build a future with her, comedian, writer (and uncircumcised liberal Jew) Max Olesker embarks on the world's most demanding religious conversion process. He navigates the complexities of Jewish laws and history, the challenges of maintaining a relationship without physical contact, and coming to terms with undergoing circumcision. From living with an Orthodox family in Hendon for eight months to enduring gruelling interrogations by a high court of Rabbis, Max's journey is a rollercoaster of heartbreak, humour and self-discovery. A hilarious and moving account of one man's quest to marry the love of his life, Making the Cut will make you laugh, cry, and believe in the transformative power of love.

'Extraordinary' ANNE APPLEBAUM'Thrilling . . . a record of an infatuation' TELEGRAPH 'The book of a lifetime' ELIF SHAFAK'The North Pole proves to be the perfect subject for him' MICHAEL PALIN'Heart-catching . . . fabulous' OBSERVER 'A beautiful book' ALAIN DE BOTTONThe epic adventure story of humanity's obsession with the North Pole, from Norwegian explorer Erling Kagge who travelled there in 1990Throughout recorded human time, few places on Earth have inspired as much fascination as the North Pole. This is an otherworldly place where the sun rises and stays aloft for six whole months before setting, plunging the expanse of ice and water into darkness for half a year. Foot-stepping alongside Erling Kagge, who ventured to the North Pole in the spring of 1990, we hear the story of the North Pole as never told before. From Herodotus who first wondered what the northernmost point of our planet might be like, to the intrepid early cartographers who mapped the world, and the legendary expeditions led by Fridtjof Nansen and Robert Peary - the first polar explorer global celebrities - who were in the grip of a dangerous obsession to get to the North Pole first. What emerges is a new history of the world, spanning thousands of years, as seen from the 'silver-shining vacantness' of the North Pole. Blending memories from Kagge's own 1990 trip with this epic history, The North Pole is an adventure story, a book about enacting hidden human dreams, about difficult fathers and their difficult sons, and a psychological record of what it means to keep putting one foot in front of the other in the face of adversity. It is for anyone who's gazed out at the horizon - and wondered what happens if you just keep walking. 'As an explorer Erling Kagge is world class; as a writer he is equally gifted' RANULPH FIENNES

Accompanied by advice, quizzes, and relatable moments to reflect, this laugh-out-loud guide is essential reading for anyone unpacking what ADHD means for them (or who just wants to giggle).

A Neurodivergent Comedian's Guide to Thriving with ADHD

Attention Seeker

This book is about something special that we all desire - love. And it is also a book about what keeps us apart - the desire to be seen but being unwilling to do what needs to be done to see. This book will change your life. It wull give you all the wings you need to fly again.

His friends called him V. He used to feel intimidated by the fashion world but he got over it. He designed his first Louis Vuitton collection in three hours. He cared more about pageantry than clothes. He wasn’t precious about his ideas. He sometimes made work and added the meaning later. He contradicted himself all the time but he saw no problem with that. Fashion for him was one big art project, and also kind of a joke. He believed in God. He believed in logos. He thought insisting on novelty in fashion was farcical; a critique meant to keep people like him out. Some nights when he couldn’t sleep he wondered how people would remember him once he was gone. Virgil Abloh, who died unexpectedly in 2021 at age 41, defied categorization. Born in Rockford, Illinois to Ghanaian immigrants, he learned to sew as child, studied civil engineering in college and then architecture in graduate school. He entered the world of fashion sideways, without formal training, upsetting the status quo first with the stratospheric success of Off-White and then with his appointment as Artistic Director of menswear at Louis Vuitton. He pierced the divisions between pop culture and couture, fashion, music, and design, and was as influenced by Marcel Duchamp and Mies van der Rohe, Albert Murray, Rammellzee, Drake, DJ Benji B, Kylie Jenner, and Bella Hadid, as by the storied histories of high fashion houses. He was fascinated by the commodification of culture and the dialectic between appropriation and reappropriation, between ‘high’ and ‘low’. He admired the ready-made and the imitative for the way in which they force you to think carefully about the context in which they were created. He felt originality was a sham, and saw clearly the way Fashion, with a capital F, depends on the policing of who is allowed the mantle of ‘genius’. The establishment bridled at his approach even as they celebrated his work. He, in turn, understood that people wanted him to be a symbol, to fit an idea of the Black Designer, but he refused any kind of easy definition. Here, in Work in Progress, is a blueprint for a way to live, a conversation between friends, a challenge to any idea of black and white thinking. A portrait of an iconoclast, WORK IN PROGRESS takes us inside the mind of one of the most visionary and transformational designers of our time.
