books a manifesto ian patterson

This is a book about books, about the subversive power of reading and the strange, enduring magic of books as objects. Ever since childhood, books have been at the centre of Ian Patterson''s life, as a poet, teacher, translator, bookseller and collector. As he constructs the last of many libraries, he makes an impassioned case for the radical importance of reading in our lives - from Proust to Jilly Cooper, from golden-age detective novels to avant-garde poetry. Wise, irreverent and exhilaratingly wide-ranging, Books: A Manifesto reminds us that poems know things that we might not yet know ourselves, urges us to seek out the puzzles alive in the art of translation and celebrates the singular elasticity of the ''bookshop minute''. But even more than this, the book insists on reading not as a luxury but a necessary part of reality: we live within language, and when we think, it''s with the tools that reading gives us. Our time of cultural and political crisis demands more than books - but without them, and without the breadth of knowledge, sense of history, awareness of alternatives and hope for the future they offer, things will not get better. At once a primer for enriching your own library and a manifesto for why that matters, this book is an invitation to a deeper, richer world of thought and feeling - and a reminder of just how much books matter.

''Mandy Aftel''s latest work with Daniel Patterson is a masterpiece on the science of cooking from an olfactory and culinary perspective through the same lens. This book is a must for any chef or cook looking to find new inspirations and a deeper understanding of the way flavours work together.'' Pratap Chahal (@thathungrychef), Flavour Bastard, Soho, London''Am counting down the days till your book arrives!'' Nigella LawsonDaniel Patterson, a chef, and Mandy Aftel, a perfumer, present a revolutionary new approach to creating delicious, original food. Aftel and Patterson are rock stars in their respective fields: Patterson has won two Michelin stars for his San Francisco restaurant Coi and numerous James Beard and other food awards, and his new path-breaking co-venture Loco''l is attracting national interest; Aftel has been profiled in the New York Times T Magazine and other publications and is constantly featured and quoted in magazines and blogs. In a world awash with cooking shows, food blogs and recipes, the art of flavour has been surprisingly neglected. The multibillion-dollar flavour industry practises its dark arts by manipulating synthetic ingredients, and home cooks are taught to wield the same blunt instruments: salt, acid, sugar, heat.But foods in their natural states are infinitely more nuanced than the laboratory can replicate - and offer far greater possibilities for deliciousness. Chef Daniel Patterson and natural perfumer Mandy Aftel are experts at orchestrating ingredients, and here they teach readers how to make the most of nature''s palette. The Art of Flavour proceeds not by rote formula but via a series of mind-opening and palate-expanding tools and concepts: using a flavour ''compass'' to find the way to transformative combinations of aromatic ingredients; pairing ingredients to make them ''bury'' (control) one another and ''lock'' (achieve an alchemy that transcends the sum of the parts); learning to deploy cooking methods for maximum effect; and the seven ''dials'' that allow a cook to fine-tune a dish. With more than sixty recipes that allow the cook to grasp each concept and put it into practice, The Art of Flavour is food for the imagination that will help cooks at any level to become flavour virtuosos in their own right.From The Flavour Bible on, flavour has been a particular focus of recent interest, but no one has Patterson''s and Aftel''s unique perspective on it, their combined expertise, or their winning blend of ideas, information, recipes and cooking and perfuming lore. The Art of Flavour is a thinking person''s cookbook that uses recipes to instil principles for creating delicious food at home, larded with fascinating information on the history and science of flavour that make it a great armchair read as well.

ANDRÉ BRETON (1896-1966), básník a esejista, je znám zejména jako zakladatel, teoretik a ústřední osobnost surrealistického hnutí, které přineslo nové paradigma estetiky. Začátky jeho tvorby jsou ovlivněny francouzským symbolismem; roku 1919 se připojil k dadaistickému hnutí, s nímž se však po názorových střetech s Tzarou roku 1922 definitivně rozešel. V roce 1924 se svými přáteli Louisem Aragonem, Paulem Éluardem a Benjaminem Péretem oficiálně ustavuje surrealistickou skupinu a publikuje Manifest surrealismu (Manifeste du surréalisme), dílo, vymezující umělecký surrealismus jako čirý psychický automatismus, jenž má zachytit pohyb myšlení bez ovlivnění racionální logikou, morálkou či estetikou (zde je patrné Bretonovo ovlivnění Freudem). Kolem roku 1925 se Breton začíná ideově sbližovat s komunismem a v roce 1927 vstupuje (stejně jako např. Aragon či Éluard) do komunistické strany, z níž byl pro své antistalinistické postoje v roce 1933 vyloučen. V tomto období se postoje surrealistů diferencují; spory v rámci skupiny vedly Bretona k napsání Druhého manifestu surrealismu (Second manifeste du surréalisme, 1930), v němž k teorii umění přibývá politický rozměr. Za druhé světové války prchá Breton do Ameriky, kde roku 1942 píše Prolegomena k Třetímu manifestu surrealismu anebo ne (Prolegomenes a un troisieme manifeste du suréalisme ou non). Přítomný svazek Manifesty surrealismu přináší českému čtenáři překlad bretonovské antologie Jeana-Jacquese Pauverta z roku 1962. Kromě manifestů samotných zde nalezneme například soubor esejů a přednášek Politická pozice surrealismu (Position politique du surréalisme), ilustrující Bretonův kritický postoj k sovětskému režimu a obsahující také dva referáty, proslovené v Praze, kam jej roku 1935 pozval zakladatel Skupiny surrealistů v ČSR Vítězslav Nezval. Součástí tohoto vydání je i "příloha" prvního vydání Manifestu - automatický text Rozpustná ryba (Poisson soluble, 1924), ukázka umělecké realizace Bretonova novátorského konceptu.

Beginning in 1945, America rocketed through a quarter-century of extraordinary economic growth, experiencing an amazing boom that soared to unimaginable heights in the 1960s. At one point, in the late 1940s, American workers produced 57 percent of the planet''s steel, 62 percent of the oil, 80 percent of the automobiles. The U.S. then had three-fourths of the world''s gold supplies. English Prime Minister Edward Heath later said that the United States in the post-War era enjoyed "the greatest prosperity the world has ever known." It was a boom that produced a national euphoria, a buoyant time of grand expectations and an unprecedented faith in our government, in our leaders, and in the American dream--an optimistic spirit which would be shaken by events in the ''60s and ''70s, and particularly by the Vietnam War. Now, in Grand Expectations, James T. Patterson has written a highly readable and balanced work that weaves the major political, cultural, and economic events of the period into a superb portrait of America from 1945 through Watergate. Here is an era teeming with memorable events--from the bloody campaigns in Korea and the bitterness surrounding McCarthyism to the assassinations of the Kennedys and Martin Luther King, to the Vietnam War, Watergate, and Nixon''s resignation. Patterson excels at portraying the amazing growth after World War II--the great building boom epitomized by Levittown (the largest such development in history) and the baby boom (which exploded literally nine months after V-J Day)--as well as the resultant buoyancy of spirit reflected in everything from streamlined toasters, to big, flashy cars, to the soaring, butterfly roof of TWA''s airline terminal in New York. And he shows how this upbeat, can-do mood spurred grander and grander expectations as the era progressed. Of course, not all Americans shared in this economic growth, and an important thread running through the book is an informed and gripping depiction of the civil rights movement--from the electrifying Brown v. Board of Education decision, to the violent confrontations in Little Rock, Birmingham, and Selma, to the landmark civil rights acts of 1964 and 1965. Patterson also shows how the Vietnam War--which provoked LBJ''s growing credibility gap, vast defense spending that dangerously unsettled the economy, and increasingly angry protests--and a growing rights revolution (including demands by women, Hispanics, the poor, Native Americans, and gays) triggered a backlash that widened hidden rifts in our society, rifts that divided along racial, class, and generational lines. And by Nixon''s resignation, we find a national mood in stark contrast to the grand expectations of ten years earlier, one in which faith in our leaders and in the attainability of the American dream was becoming shaken. Grand Expectations is the newest volume in the prestigious Oxford History of the United States. The earlier releases were highly acclaimed, and one, Battle Cry of Freedom, was both a New York Times bestseller and a winner of the Pulitzer Prize. Patterson''s volume takes its rightful place beside these distinguished works. It is a brilliant summation of the years that created the America that we know today, a time of setbacks amid unmatched and lasting achievements.

''This honest, engaging memoir shares such gems . . . the perfect read for anyone who dreams big'' The Times and Sunday Times, Books of the Year The powerful, urgent memoir and manifesto on never giving up from Booker prize-winning trailblazer, Bernardine EvaristoIn 2019, Bernardine Evaristo became the first black woman to win the Booker Prize since its inception fifty years earlier - a revolutionary landmark for Britain. Her journey was a long one, but she made it, and she made history.Manifesto is her intimate and fearless account of how she did it. From a childhood steeped in racism from neighbours, priests and even some white members of her own family, to discovering the arts through her local youth theatre; from stuffing her belongings into bin bags, always on the move between temporary homes, to exploring many romantic partners both toxic and loving, male and female, and eventually finding her soulmate; from setting up Britain''s first theatre company for Black women in the eighties to growing into the trailblazing writer, theatre-maker, teacher, mentor and activist we see today - Bernardine charts her rebellion against the mainstream and her life-long commitment to community and creativity.

Discover the new compelling novel from Sunday Times bestselling thriller writer, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden's The Housemaid and the Women's Murder Club series. My name is Elinor Gilbert. And I am the Invisible Woman. Elinor Gilbert was once a young woman with a thriving career at the FBI. Now, decades past solving crimes with the bureau, she is personally and professionally forgettable. Which is exactly what her former FBI boss needs. He disguises Elinor as a middle-aged nanny, and casts her as an agent on the inside of his investigation into a New York art dealer suspected of ties to organised crime. But as Elinor pushes toward the truth, her superpower - anonymity - risks doubling as a fatal flaw. The more the invisible woman integrates into her 'host' family, the more dangerously memorable she becomes. ________________________________Readers LOVE The Invisible Woman...
