![]() ![]() I wouldn’t say I’m a Nick Cave fanboy or anything but three weeks ago I named my new-born daughter Eliza Rose. Stagger Lee, The Good Son and Deanna are given a comic book reimagining against vast full colour portraits alongside brush pen sketches from the German artist’s warped mind. Presented in an LP sized hardback, the book provides visually stunning and dark perspectives into Nick Cave’s career on wax, stage and beyond. The previous, glorious international bestseller was endorsed by the main man himself, stating the novel was “closer to the truth than any biography, that’s for sure.” And Nick’s thoughts on Kleist’s latest works? “A complex, chilling and completely bizarre journey into Cave World.” You cannot argue with that. ![]() ![]() Following the success of 2017’s critically acclaimed graphic novel Nick Cave: Mercy on Me, award winning Reinhard Kleist is back in 2018 with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds: An Art Book. ![]() ![]() ![]() You will find tried-and-true favorites like Banana Bread Cockaigne, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Southern Corn Bread-all retested and faithfully improved-as well as new favorites like Chana Masala, Beef Rendang, Megan’s Seeded Olive Oil Granola, and Smoked Pork Shoulder. Their strategy for revising this edition was the same one Irma and Marion employed: Vet, research, and improve Joy’s coverage of legacy recipes while introducing new dishes, modern cooking techniques, and comprehensive information on ingredients now available at farmers’ markets and grocery stores. ![]() John and Megan developed more than six hundred new recipes for this edition, tested and tweaked thousands of classic recipes, and updated every section of every chapter to reflect the latest ingredients and techniques available to today’s home cooks. This new edition of Joy has been thoroughly revised and expanded by Irma’s great-grandson John Becker and his wife, Megan Scott. Rombauer self-published the first three thousand copies of Joy of Cooking in 1931, it has become the kitchen bible, with more than 20 million copies in print. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the year since receiving the experimental treatment, she's had no severe pain or hospitalization. ![]() It affects about 100,000 Americans, including Victoria Gray, a Mississippi mother of four who became the first American to be treated with CRISPR-fixed genes. They include muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, Huntington's disease, and sickle-cell disease, a blood disorder that brings debilitating pain, infections, and early death. About 7,000 human diseases are caused by gene mutations that, in theory, we can simply snip away. Those medical treatments show off CRISPR's most jaw-dropping possibilities. Clinical trials are underway to treat some cancers using CRISPR techniques. Scientists have bred more nutritious tomatoes, and created a wheat that doesn't contain gluten. Since Doudna published her paper in 2012, a lot's been going on in the world's CRISPR labs. "And then I realized by the end, I was understating the case." "When I started this book, I thought, 'OK, biotechnology and CRISPR, it's the most amazing thing happening in our time,'" Isaacson said. ![]() His latest, "The Code Breaker" (published by Simon & Schuster, part of ViacomCBS), is about Jennifer Doudna and her work on CRISPR.

She has created imaginary worlds for as long as she can remember, so it only seemed natural that she would become a writer. ![]() ![]() Marie Landry has always been a daydreamer. ![]() ![]() ![]() And yet most of us, being human and thus fallible yet proud, go to excruciating lengths to avoid making mistakes, then once we inevitably do, we take great pains to hide them from ourselves and the world. “The chief trick to making good mistakes is not to hide them - especially not from yourself,” philosopher Daniel Dennett asserted in his magnificent meditation on the dignity and art-science of making mistakes. Make mistakes nobody’s ever made before,” Neil Gaiman urged in his commencement-address-turned-manifesto-for-the-creative life. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Where Denis de Rougemont, the author of the mid-twentieth- century classic Love in the Western World, might say, “Passion is a death drive: stay away from it!,” Perel says, “Passion demands you discard all that’s dear to you-so what are you waiting for?” And she smiles.Įven though she was born in Belgium and schooled in Israel, and speaks eight languages, she is fundamentally, deeply American-indeed, announcing that you speak eight languages is a deeply American thing to do. She is, after all, to judge from Mating in Captivity, an extremely upbeat person and backs off constantly from the disturbing nature of her contentions. One might reasonably make the argument that if good sex comes at so high a price, who wants it? Or at least, who can afford it? If it comes at the price of intimacy, honesty, security, harmony, openness, and trust, shouldn’t we just pass? Of course, Esther Perel would claim that I’m distorting her argument. And the bad news-or the good, depending on your priorities-is that it’s probably true.Ĭommunication? Forget it. ![]() That, in so many words, is the theme of Esther Perel’s little red book on how to achieve sexual bliss in marriage. ![]() ![]() ![]() Known for creating laws to protect and help the poor, Charles the Good's assassination sent ripples throughout Europe, affecting the balance of power between England, France, and the Holy Roman Empire. ![]() ![]() On March 12, 1127, Charles the Good, Count of Flanders, was slain in the church of Saint Donatian in Bruges in a plot devised by an embittered noble family. I had to wait for moments of peace during the night or day to set in order the present account of events as they happened, and in this way, though in great straits, I transcribed for the faithful what you see and read."-From The Murder of Charles the Good and in the midst of so much danger by night and conflict by day. "And it should be known that I, Galbert, a notary, though I had no suitable place for writing, set down on tablets a summary of events. ![]() ![]() ![]() Kelsier recruited the underworld’s elite, the smartest and most trustworthy allomancers, each of whom shares one of his many powers, and all of whom relish a high-stakes challenge. A brilliant thief and natural leader, he turned his talents to the ultimate caper, with the Lord Ruler himself as the mark. Kelsier “snapped” and found in himself the powers of a Mistborn. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler’s most hellish prison. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the “Sliver of Infinity,” reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. Summary: For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. ![]() ![]() ![]() Anticipation for the next volume will start as soon as this one is put down." - Booklist, starred review "It's rare that the second book in a series is as good–or perhaps better–than the first, but that's the case here.
