The Quarry Wood, although published well before Sunset Song, inhabits a similar world; the progress of its heroine could almost be the alternative story of a Chris Guthrie who did go to university. Compassionate and humorous, the grace and style of Shepherd s prose is heightened by a superb ear for the vigorous language of the north-east.The Weatherhouse, Shepherd s masterpiece, is an even more substantial achievement which belongs to the great line of Scottish fiction dealing with the complex interactions of small communities, and especially the community of women - a touching and hilarious network of mothers, daughters, spinsters and widows. It is also a striking meditation on the nature of truth, the power of human longing and the mystery of being.The third and final novel, A Pass in the Grampians, describes Jenny Kilgour s coming of age as she has to choose between the kindly harshness of her grandfather s life on a remote hill farm, and the vulgar and glorious energy of Bella Cassie, a local girl who left the community to pursue success as a singer, and has now returned to scandalise them all.The Living Mountain is a lyrical testament in praise of the Cairngorms. It is a work deeply rooted in Shepherd s knowledge of the natural world, and a poetic and philosophical meditation on our longing for high and holy places.This omnibus edition of Shepherd s prose works reveals how her sensitivity and powers of observation raise her work far above the status of regional literature and into the front rank of Scottish writing.

From the critically acclaimed short fiction writer Laura Newman, whose first collection of stories, PW effused “with candor and wry wit, and memorable details, these stories shimmer,” come three, thematically-liked, quirky yet resonant novellas that together form an unusual and original view of western American life.In The Darling of the Black Rock Desert, Julia loves Howi, but never intends to marry him until she realizes she’s pregnant with few options; it is, after all, 1960. Life becomes more complicated and yet richer when their darling daughter, Nia, is born with a physical disability. Despite her infirmity, Nia manages to have a fairly normal, happy childhood, beloved by her best friend Wynona and their male sidekicks until tragedy strikes and family life comes undone.It’s 1986 in City of Angels when Henri and Simone Bouchard meet in the iconic Los Angeles Central Library. Simone is a college art student, and Lenny is a Viet Nam vet trying to survive extreme PTSD. They strike up an unlikely acquaintance that is interrupted when the great Los Angeles Library fire of 1986 happens, a substantial portion of the books—and their tenuous connection—going up in flames. Will they find one another again?It s 2006 in The Saints of Death ValleyT, a nun in a San Francisco convent adopts a baby left on the doorstep and in order to raise her must leave the faith. Named Grace, the baby grows up; however, after committing what she fears to be an unforgivable sin, Grace takes her bag of holy cards and hits the road, winding up at the Burning Man Festival and then in Death Valley where she is taken in by a family of pastry chefs and landscapers and tries to reinvent herself in a secular world.Newman’s trio of novellas about desert misfits are by turns probing, incandescent, and like her shorter fiction, riotously funny and are certain to broaden her readership.

Step into the magical and delicious world of chef Mauro Colagreco’s Mirazur, the three-Michelin–starred restaurant situated along the French Riviera at the foot of the mountains and overlooking the sea. Colagreco’s much-lauded cuisine takes its inspiration from the natural world and the terroir surrounding Mirazur; his personal garden, which brims with aromatic herbs and fragrant citrus trees just across from the restaurant; his Italian Argentinian heritage; and his background training with leading French chefs Bernard Louiseau, Alain Passard, Alain Ducasse, and Guy Martin. More than just a cookbook, Mauro and Laura Colagreco’s Mirazur: Under the Sign of the Moon unearths the chef’s unique vision and earth-honoring philosophy for food. The sustainable gastronomy translates into four menus, each following the lunar calendar. Food lovers will discover recipes of gastronomic excellence around four components (roots, leafs, flowers, and fruits) and journey through the gardens and orchards that have helped Mirazur grow to become the best restaurant in the world. Among the recipes included are: Turnip and Shellfish Tartlet; Carrot, Kumquat, and Pork Belly Terrine; Menton Onion, Caramote Shrimp, and Red Shiso; Celery Root and Squid Tagliatelle; Lamb Millefeuille; Radicchio Ravioli and Wild Boar Consommé; Petit Pois and Elderflower Ragout; Osmanthus, Langoustine, and Green Apple, Baby Fava Bean Tartlett and Pistachio, Mallard and Quince Terrine; Chia, Citron, and Venison Tartare; Raspberries and Verbena.With Color Photography by Matteo Carassale
