Book SynopsisThe Wild Life is John Lewis-Stempel's account of twelve months eating only food shot, caught or foraged from the fields, hedges, and brooks of his forty-acre farm. Nothing from a shop and nothing raised from agriculture. Could it even be done?We witness the season-by-season drama as the author survives on Nature's larder, trains Edith, a reluctant gundog, and conjures new recipes. And, above all, we see him get closer to Nature. Because, after all, you're never closer to Nature than when you're trying to kill it or pick it.Lyrical, observant and mordantly funny, The Wild Life is an extraordinary celebration of our natural heritage, and a testament to the importance of getting back to one's roots - spiritually and practically.Trade ReviewThis is a great book: tough and funny, metaphysical and earthy, passionate and honest. Most of all, honest: not just in the sense of 'candid', but honest also in that it reveals the sheer bloody awkwardness, and the sheer awkward bloodiness, of trying to live even semi-wild these days. What might seem like a gimmick turns out to be a way of discovering a great deal about that complicated thing we call 'land'. There's also some beautiful writing about place -- Robert Macfarlane, author of the international bestseller, The Wild PlacesBeautifully written. The closest thing you can get to poetry in prose -- Paul Blezzard * Hay on Wye Literary Festival *A fascinating account of each month as [John Lewis Stempel] tracks, kills and gathers what he needs to stay alive... But this is more than just a rundown of all the perfectly edible stuff out there that we tend to overlook in our everyday, supermarket-dominated lives. The Wild Life is also a meditation on survival and our connection to the land... A timely and compelling book -- Jason Webster * Sunday Telegraph *Tough, honest, funny, poetic and informative, this is an initiatory and spiritual journey. A life lesson for us all * Ecologist *A large slice of nostalgia served up in an amusing and informative narrative * Manchester Evening News *

Book Synopsis'At its heart, a deeply practical yet joyously readable book...you are all set to head off to the kitchen and have a truly glorious time' Nigel Slater, GuardianRevisit and discover the sensational first cook book from Nigella Lawson.When Nigella Lawson's first book, How to Eat, was published in 1998, two things were immediately clear: that this fresh and fiercely intelligent voice would revolutionise cookery writing, and that How to Eat was an instant classic of the genre.Here was a versatile culinary bible, through which a generation discovered how to feel at home in the kitchen and found the confidence to experiment and adapt recipes to their own needs. This was the book to reach for when hastily organising a last-minute supper with friends, when planning a luxurious weekend lunch or contemplating a store-cupboard meal for one, or when trying to tempt a fussy toddler.This was a book about home cooking for busy lives.'How to eat, how to cook, how to write: I want two copies of this book, one to reference in the kitchen and one to read in bed' Yotam OttolenghiWITH AN INTRODUCTION BY JEANETTE WINTERSON**Nigella returns to the BBC in 2023 in Nigella’s Amsterdam Christmas Special**Trade ReviewWhat sets her apart from every other food writer is her empathy with working women and her realism * The Times *If I could only keep one cookbook, this would be it. How To Eat suits the way I cook. It is as if Nigella is sitting on a stool next to me in the kitchen as I’m cooking ... With every page you know she loves this stuff, and she wants you to love it too. It’s a very, very special book for me.

Book SynopsisThere is one powerful smell closely associated with the making of coffee in bedsitters. It is the smell of burning plastic, and will go away if you move the handle of the pot away from the flame.Legendary journalist Katharine Whitehorn's classic handbook of quick, simple meals - including Swedish Sausage Casserole, Lamb Tomato Quickie and Shrimp Wiggle - became the essential survival manual for the busy single person living in their first rented room.Whitehorn's trademark intelligent, practical and fabulously funny writing shines as brightly as ever, addressing the problems of 'cooking at ground level, in a hurry, with nowhere to put the salad but the washing-up bowl, which is in any case full of socks'. Delightful, entertaining and utterly indispensable.Praise for Katharine Whitehorn:'A meteor: clever, funny, compassionate, insightful, beautiful' RACHEL COOKE'Everyone grabbed the Observer to read her column on a Sunday morning' JILLY COOPER 'Wise, witty, mischievous' JAY RAYNERTrade ReviewKatharine Whitehorn was a meteor: clever, funny, compassionate, insightful, beautiful * Rachel Cooke *Everyone grabbed the Observer to read her column on a Sunday morning * Jilly Cooper *Katharine Whitehorn was wise, witty, mischievous * Jay Rayner *
