the ex boyfriend s favourite recipe funeral committee saki kawashiro

There is a small cafe in Tokyo where something unusual is brewing... After being dumped by her boyfriend, Momoko finds herself very drunk at a small cafe. Momoko shares the story of her ex-boyfriend with the Manager of the café and the other customers who happened to be there. As she tells her story, she goes into the kitchen of the café, and cooks her ex-boyfriend’s favorite dish, butter chicken curry. Together, they eat the dish and Momoko begins to feel better. Much better. The owner of the café loves the curry and Momoko’s story and they decide to hold a weekly Ex-Boyfriend’s Favorite Recipe Funeral Committee meeting at the café. Momoko begins to work at the café, and every Friday night at 10 pm, anybody with a bitter memory of a relationship and a dish associated with it, comes to the café, prepares the dish, shares the story, and together they eat the dish. Tears are shed, food is eaten, regrets and memories are devoured, thoughts of revenge dissolve. Together the diners purge the sadness and negativity. The pain of the relationship is dead and buried forever. Part confessional, part group therapy, part recovery, part cookbook.

In this hilarious and heartfelt memoir, Haley McGee sets out to calculate—with mathematical precision—the exact cost of love, and whether all of her former relationships were worth it.Haley McGee is in debt. The solution? A yard sale of gifts from her ex-boyfriends. But when it comes to pricing, she gets stuck. Surely the ways we invest in our romantic relationships should be reflected in the price. But how? Is the mixtape from your first love worth more than the vintage typewriter from a philanderer? Does sitting on an X-Acto knife wedged between seats on a bus to see the boyfriend you lost your virginity to increase or decrease the value of the necklace he gave you? Should you be compensated for the miserable times or do they render an item worthless? Haley decides to gamble on a larger payout. She interviews her exes and enlists the help of a mathematician to create a formula—with eighty-six variables—for the cost of love. As she''s searching for answers, the one that got away reappears with a new proposition. Female desire, heartbreak and the chance for integrity in the aftermath of both are held up in this whipsmart, original and daringly candid memoir. As ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. In rural China funerals are conducted locally, on village land by village elders. But in urban areas, people have neither land for burials nor elder relatives to conduct funerals. Chinese urbanization, which has increased drastically in recent decades, involves the creation of cemeteries, state-run funeral homes, and small private funerary businesses. The Funeral of Mr. Wang examines social change in urbanizing China through the lens of funerals, the funerary industry, and practices of memorialization. It analyzes changes in family life, patterns of urban sociality, transformations in economic relations, the politics of memorialization, and the echoes of these changes in beliefs about the dead and ghosts.

Defenders and critics of the controversial Spitzer study analyze its methodologies and findingsIn 2001, Robert L. Spitzer, MD, presented his study on sexual conversion therapy with its controversial findings that some homosexuals can change their sexual orientation. The resulting media sensation and political firestorm enraged the study’s critics and emboldened its supporters. Ex-Gay Research: Analyzing the Spitzer Study and Its Relation to Science, Religion, Politics, and Culture presents leading experts examining Spitzer’s research methodology and findings to discern whether the study itself deserves deeper consideration or outright dismissal. Every facet of the study is reviewed to discuss the positive or negative aspects of the results, its significance in political and social terms, and the implications for the future. Dr. Spitzer himself was an instrumental figure in the American Psychiatric Association''s decision in 1973 to remove homosexuality as a mental illness listing from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-III. His later study that states that in some individuals, homosexuality may be more fluid than previously thought stirred controversy in the psychiatric community and society at large.

FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE NORTH WIND COMES A DARKLY REIMAGINED TALE OF FORBIDDEN LOVE, INSPIRED BY THE GREEK MYTH OF HERO AND LEANDER AND THE SCOTTISH BALLAD TAM LIN. Brielle of Thornbrook has dedicated her life to the abbey. She spends her days forging iron and her evenings studying the Text, all in preparation of becoming an acolyte. Twenty-one years on this earth and she has never touched a man. And she never will. But when she finds an injured stranger in the forest, Brielle can’t resist the urge to help him. The encounter leads her to the realm of Under, where the air breathes rot, and the fair folk dance and whisper. Where she discovers that the man she helped is actually a god: Zephyrus, the West Wind, Bringer of Spring. There are few Brielle can trust in Under, least of all Zephyrus. He is charming, dangerously so, and never has a man so thoroughly ensnared her. As she embarks on a journey through the eerie banks and caves of Under, Brielle finds herself in a perilous situation.

''any narrative of human action and adventure - whether we call it history or Romance - is certain to be a fragile handiwork, more easily rent than mended''The fragility - and the durability - of human life and art dominate this story of American expatriates in Italy in the mid-nineteenth century. Befriended by Donatello, a young Italian with the classical grace of the ''Marble Faun'', Miriam, Hilda, and Kenyon find their pursuit of art taking a sinister turn as Miriam''s unhappy past precipitates the present into tragedy.Hawthorne''s ''International Novel'' dramatizes the confrontation of the Old World and the New and the uncertain relationship between the ''authentic'' and the ''fake'', in life as in art. The author''s evocative descriptions of classic sites made The Marble Faun a favourite guidebook to Rome for Victorian tourists, but this richly ambiguous symbolic romance is also the story of a murder, and a parable of the Fall of Man. As the characters find their civilized existence disrupted by the awful consequences of impulse, Hawthorne leads his readers to question the value of Art and Culture and addresses the great evolutionary debate which was beginning to shake Victorian society.
