    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisIt's the middle of the pandemic and Hawaii has been virtually closed to tourists.So when Leilani Santiago and her young sisters save a mysterious woman wearing an unusual lei from drowning in Waimea Bay in Kaua‘i, questions abound. Who is she and where did she come from? Leilani suddenly finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation when the lei is traced back to her best friend, the very pregnant Courtney Kahuakai, and her family’s flower business.While the woman is in a medically-induced coma at a local hospital, Leilani sets out to discover her identity and her connections to the island. She is drawn deeper into the mystery, only to stumble into secrets that prove deadly. When Leilani’s investigation puts her family in danger, her survival and the safety of those dearest to her will depend on her sense of ingenuity and the strength of her island community.Trade Review“Wryly humorous, well-plotted, and timely without being depressing, An Eternal Lei will inspire daydreams of (post-pandemic) travel to Hawaii.” —Katie Noah Gibson, Shelf Awareness“Hirahara gives us a multilayered story, rich in island detail.” —Booklist“Fans of intrepid amateur sleuths will want to see more of Leilani.” —Publishers Weekly“With a strong sense of place, community, and culture, Hirahara’s follow-up to 2019’s Iced in Paradise opens a window on a Hawai’i unseen by most mainlanders . . . the multilayered central puzzle rivets from start to kindhearted finish.” —Mystery Scene"Naomi Hirahara’s second novel featuring the multicultural Santiago family from the Hawaiian island of Kaua’i deftly uses COVID-19 as background for an energetic story about how the pandemic has affected tourism, small businesses and the vagaries of families in a tidy plot.” —Sun-Sentinel“An Eternal Lei returns us to the diverse, beautiful, and complex setting of Hawai’i, and the world of Hirahara’s sharp and utterly relatable heroine, Leilani Santiago. Complicated family dynamics, pandemic issues, a wonderfully multicultural cast, and the unique politics of the island add color and depth to the latest installment of this fantastic mystery series. I can’t wait for the next book and am already searching for the nearest shave ice spot!” —Mia P. Manansala, author of Arsenic and Adobo“A thrilling cozy with a gutsy young sleuth in authentic, contemporary Hawaii; packed with cultural insights and twisty reveals, it’s paradise in a book.” —Jennifer J. Chow, Lefty Award-Nominated author of the Sassy Cat Mysteries“Kama‘āina rejoice! Naomi Hirahara has served up a detective who looks, talks and acts like one of us, a true breath of fresh air . . . An Eternal Lei is a cozy with a hardboiled heart, overflowing with Leilani’s cynical observations and introspection and staring down one of the Pacific’s ugliest issues without flinching. It’s a rainbow shave ice complete with azuki beans and ice cream for those of us who like something dark and rich lurking under the pretty colors.” —Scott Kikkawa, Elliot Cades Award winning author of Kona Winds and Red Dirt, and associate editor of The Hawai‘i Review of Books

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisFood, art and life combine in a lavishly-illustrated book about Turkish cuisine, Turkish village life - and the will to survive a frightening diagnosis. In July 2019, painter and art teacher Eljay Dickins was diagnosed with a Grade 4 inoperable malignant glioblastoma brain tumour. Sufferers have a 1 in 12 chance of surviving six months. Early diagnosis, radio- and chemotherapy, together with a determination that somehow she wouldn't be crushed by it, helped save her life. Published three and a half years later, A Painter's Palate is a result of that dogged drive to live. As a creative person, Eljay responded to her diagnosis her own way - through her rich and vibrant paintings (a selection of which are included in the book) and through writing, drawing upon her years running painting holidays in an old stone house near the Aegean in Turkey. Funny and often touching, the book brings together over 180 recipes of authentic Turkish daily family fare with vivid descriptions of her life as an Englishwoman in Turkey, of the people she met and the food she cooked while she was there. A Painter's Palate is a lighthearted, uplifting and inspirational tale of village life and local food, infused with Eljay's ever-positive attitude, irreverent sense of humour and hope for the future against seemingly insurmountable odds.

    Book SynopsisGravenstein, Coe's Golden Drop, Cox's Orange Pippin: the names sound like something from Tolkien or the ingredients of a magic potion. But as befits their magical appellations, apples have transfixed and beguiled humans for thousands of years. Erika Janik explores the importance of a fruit, born in the mountains of Kazakhstan, which has became a favourite almost everywhere. Apples have played their part in starting the Trojan War, the discovery of gravity and the settling of America, and you can even use them to predict the future. Apples also make for good drinking, and Janik relates the history of cider in Europe and America. From the Garden of Eden and the wicked queen's apple in the story of Snow White to Johnny Appleseed and the Apple computer, apples have been a universal source of sustenance, health and legend from ancient times to the present. Food and history lovers will devour this surprising history of one of the world's most loved and prolific fruits.

  • Roman Food Poems

    Prospect Books Roman Food Poems

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisAll the major poets of Rome can be represented by something they wrote about food. They tell us how we taste it, where to get it, how to serve it, how and with whom to eat it, what and how much to drink with it, and how to get or avoid invitations to meals. Their subjects include vegetarianism, food-snobs and mythology. They also considered the idea of forbidden food. After all, the main preoccupations of human beings in any age can be brought in on the same trays as the food and drink. Sex, death, slavery, gardening, religion and the family are included, one way or another, in the verses printed and translated here. Alistair Elliot has chosen widely from Latin literature, from humble graffiti to the most famous and most memorable; from the oldest (Ennius) to those writing at the high-point of Empire (Juvenal). The lover of poetry will admire the vigorous translations; the student of Latin will welcome the many styles and means of expression contained within a short compass.

    Book SynopsisA simple design object to overcome food scarcity. The sausage is one of mankind's first-ever designed food items. A paragon of efficient butchery, it was designed to make the most of animal protein in times of scarcity, and dates back as far as 3300 BCE. Today, the sausage remains a cornerstone of our food culture. England alone has over 470 different types of breakfast sausages! Now, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), we are facing a serious shortage of protein-rich-food. Meat, in particular, will be scarce. One reason for this is over-consumption: in today's world, we simply consume too many animal products. So can we look to the sausage to provide a solution once again, in order to reduce the consumption of meat? Can the use of new ingredients replace the meat and increase the diversity of our diets? To answer these questions, a chef of molecular gastronomy, a master butcher and a designer have teamed up to look into sausage production techniques and potential new ingredients - like insects, nuts, and legumes - to create the "future sausage. ' This book takes the reader on a journey through all the building blocks of a sausage and presents lesser-known ingredients, carefully selected for their "future potential." AUTHOR: Carolien Niebling, born 1984, is a designer and researcher who specialises in food-related projects and lives and works in Lausanne. She graduated ECAL Master in Product Design in 2014. 174 illustrations
