Review - Jamie Oliver's Happy Days With the Naked Chef is in the same mould as his other bestsellers: recipes for simple, comforting, homely food. This time, however, he has some interesting additions from his travels to Australia, New Zealand, America and Japan. There are three new ideas in Happy Days With the Naked Chef. Jamie has included a chapter on "Comfort Food" the kind of cooking Nigel Slater and Nigella Lawson specialise in. He has recipes for Toad in the Hole, Fish Finger Buttie and Sticky Sausage Bap with Melted Cheese and Brown Sauce. In his "Quick Fixes" chapter, he has selected dishes where saving time and minimal washing up are the key ingredients. These include a Steak Sarnie and Chicken Breast Baked in a Bag with Mushrooms, Butter, White Wine and Thyme. He has also included a "Kids Club" chapter, which is offers inspiration for parents trying to get their children excited about food. The new additions don't dominate the book as the remaining two-thirds contain Jamie's standard Italian-style fare: simple salads, fish, meat, vegetables, breads and pudding. Don't miss the excellent recipe for Medallions of Beef with Morels and Marsala and Crème Fraîche Sauce. Jamie has also been travelling and you'll find recipes with pak choy, soy sauce and ginger popping up here and there, delicious! Jamie is one of Britain's best-loved chefs; he has made cooking interesting and accessible. He believes in getting the most out of ingredients and making tasty, easy, sociable food with the minimum of fuss. "Happy Days" is filled with recipes for different occasions.

Trade Paperback. The young protagonists of David Odhiambo's novel Kipligat's Chance test the limits of their bodies and their wills as they strive for both the gilded limelight of the Olympics and the material payoff afforded by scholarships to prestigious American universities. The author himself is testing limits in this important work, as well; boundaries of race, age, nationality, gender, and creed are all stretched in this dazzling, harrowing cascade from pillar to post.The story is narrated by John "Leeds" Kipligat, and follows the young African-Canadian runner and his best friend Kulvinder-also an athlete with Olympic aspirations-as they attempt to dream a passage out of obscurity and poverty. First comes the act of imagining the possibility of better, more prosperous lives ("We'll meet chicks from places like Toronto"), next comes the regimented training that the two hopefuls must endure under the strict mentorship of Sam Holt, an Olympic has-been turned track coach, and alongside two women runners who are driven towards similar goals.In a story that revolves around running and racing, there is sure to be a certain quantity of intensity and speed, and Kipligat's Chance is a marathon of vigor. But there is also much humor, compassion, and love, delivered with ineffable subtlety by Odhiambo, filtered through the harshness and profanity of the young men's worlds. In a jacket quote from George Elliott Clarke, we read: "In this masterful novel, James Brown grit meets James Baldwin grace." The comparison to Baldwin is apt, but perhaps incomplete.

Der sechsjährige Sol, die sechsjährige Erra: In wie unterschiedlichen Lebenswelten wachsen sie auf! Sol, verwöhnt, altklug und öfter im Internet unterwegs, als seine gluckenhafte Mutter erfahren darf, lebt in jenem Land, in dem <<Gott mit Bush befreunder ist>>. Erra, das glückliche Mädchen mit der Wunderstimme, das in Trümmern spielt, salutiert noch vor Adolf Hitler. Erra ist Sols Urgrossmutter. Über Generationen sind die beiden verbunden, und dennoch liegt in dieser Genealogie ein unentdecktes Geheimnis verborgen. Was ist etwa mit dem hässlichen Muttermal an Sols Schläfe, das er sich wegoperieren lässt? Was mit dem grenzenlosen Hass seines Vaters? Niemand setzt sich auf dieselbe Weise an den Tisch der Geschichte, und Lüge, Untreue und Verrat bestimmen die Art, wie sie in dieser Familie von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben wird. Es bleibt den aufmerksamen Kindern überlassen, die Brüche und Verwerfungen in den Erzählungen ihrer Eltern zu deuten. Und so mit Hilfe ihrer klaren, nur scheinbar naiven Stimmen, führt uns Nancy Huston über vier Generationen und durch mehrere Kontinente ins Zentrum des diesem Roman zugrundeliegenden Rätsels. <<Ein winziger Makel>> ist ein spannendes, raffiniert und originell konstruiertes Buch, zeitkritisch, politisch, aber auch sehr intim und berührend. Nancy Huston wurde 1953 in Calgary, Kanada, geboren, wuchs in den USA auf. Seit 1973 lebt sie in Paris. Sie ist mit dem Linguisten und Philosophen Tzvetan Todorov verheiratet und hat zwei Kinder. Huston hat zahlreiche Romane und Sachbücher veröffentlicht; für ihr Werk wurde sie in Kanada u.a. mit dem Governor General's Award for Fiction und in Frankreich mit dem Prix Goncourt des Lycéens ausgezeichnet. Für <<Ein winziger Makel>> erhielt sie 2006 den Prix Femina; das Buch war in Frankreich ein Nr.-1-Bestseller. A novel about four generations of a German family and the enduring effects of a dark secret about the family's origins. The novel is organized in reverse chronological order proceeding from 2004 to 1944 and is divided into four sections in which the narration is provided by a child. Like the novel's transition in time, there is an equally broad movement in space with the settings shifting from the West Coast of the United States to the East, from Haifa to Toronto to Munich. The story begins with with the experiences of the gifted six-year-old Sol. He is sheltered by an over-protective mother. Surgery to remove a congenital birthmark goes badly and the extended family travels to great-grandmother's childhood home in Munich. Once there, Sol witnesses a physical struggle between his great-grandmother and his great-aunt which is a trigger to send the narrative thread back through the childhood of Sol's father, his grandmother, and finally his great-grandmother living in 1944 Munich. Nancy Huston was born in 1953 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. She was written novels and nonfiction in French and English and has made some noted translations of her own works. Huston grew up in Canada, Germany, and the United States. She left Sarah Lawrence College in New York to attend the École des Hautes Études in Paris, where she studied linguistics and semiotics with the French philosopher and critic Roland Barthes. In the 1970s she was active in the womens movement and went on to teach at Columbia Universitys Institute for Feminist Studies in Paris in the 1980s. After Barthess death in 1980, Huston decided to remain in France and shifted her work as a writer to the production of novels. She later married the Franco-Bulgarian literary theorist and philosopher Tzvetan Todorov. Her earlier nonfiction works have been somewhat controversial but her fiction has received wide, international critical acclaim. Her first novel, 'Les Variations Goldberg (The Goldberg Variations)', was short-listed for the Prix Femina. In 1993 she was awarded the Governor Generals Award for best French-language novel for 'Cantique des plaines (Plainsong)'. Her later novels include 'Virevolte (Slow Emergencies)', 'LEmpreinte de lange (The Mark of the Angel)', and 'Dolce agonia'. She received the Prix Femina a second time, for 'Lignes de faille (Fault Lines)' and it was also shortlisted for the Orange Prize. She has published twelve novels so far and continues to live in Paris with her husband and two children. 5.4"x8.3", 367 pages. Zufriedenheit garantiert (satisfaction guaranteed)..

Browns fans need to know that about the reincarnated franchise that returned to the National Football League in 1999. The NFL never should have allowed Art Modell to hijack the franchise to Baltimore. But Modell was one of the boys, a veteran owner, and the league loves to take care of its own. And if it's unfair to the fans, so what? They'll just put an expansion team in there and make even more money in the process. It was all about money. Never forget that. Money for Modell, and money for his lodge brothers in the NFL owners boxes. This is the book the NFL really doesn't want you to read. It's the story of how some of the best football fans in the country were betrayed, abused, and finally stuck with an inferior product-but charged more for it. What has been the return on their investment? What have fans, who bought every ticket for every game since the Browns came back in 1999, received as a reward? Heartaches, headaches and frustration. Is it possible the Browns can overcome all this and even be a contender any time soon? This is the NFL, where it seems almost any team can make the Super Bowl, unless it happens to be playing in Cleveland. So, yes, the Browns could have a playoff team in the near future. They could finally make their fans bark for joy rather than howl in pain. But if it happens, it's because the team has overcome a ridiculous number of obstacles, most of which were put into place by a league that has dollar signs for eyes. And that makes me mad, because Browns fans deserve better., Gray & Company, Publishers, 2004, 4, ReganBooks, 2004-10-12. Hardcover. Good. Signed. Inscribed by author on half title page.

"This book is a carefuly researched, popularly written critique of the best selling novel The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. The novel claims to be based on facts & solid scholarship.

Thomas (1913-2000) is a major writer of our time, one of the finest religious poets in the English language and one of Wales's greatest poets. His output was prolific: over six decades he published some 25 individual collections of poems, as well as several volumes of prose. A substantial number of his poems, however, have hitherto remained uncollected, and often elusive poems published in newspapers, magazines and journals (many of them obscure), as well as in private or limited editions. Uncollected Poems - published to mark the centenary of Thomas's birth - brings together for the first time a rigorous selection of the best of these. The fruit of several years' research by Tony Brown and Jason Walford Davies, the volume makes available work which spans the whole of Thomas's career from an early sonnet to his first wife, M.E. Eldridge (included in his first, unpublished, collection Spindrift in the late 1930s) and an early Iago Prytherch poem published in the Dublin Magazine, to poems which are powerful expressions of the metaphysical meditations of his later years. R.S. Thomas's Uncollected Poems takes its place alongside Collected Poems 1945-1990 (Dent, 1993; Phoenix, 2000), Selected Poems (Penguin, 2003) and Collected Later Poems 1988-2000 (Bloodaxe Books, 2004).

The friends of the title are Ted Mundy, British soldier's son born 1947 in a shining new independent Pakistan, and Sasha, refugee son of an East German Lutheran pastor and his wife who have sought sanctuary in the West. The two men meet first as students in riot-torn West Berlin of the late Sixties, again in the grimy looking-glass of Cold War espionage and, most terribly, in today's unipolar world of terror, counter-terror and the war of lies. Deriving its scale from A PERFECT SPY and its passion from THE CONSTANT GARDENER, Le Carré's new novel presents us with magical writing, characters to delight, and a spellbinding story that enchants even as it challenges.

Review - Jamie Oliver's Happy Days With the Naked Chef is in the same mould as his other bestsellers: recipes for simple, comforting, homely food. This time, however, he has some interesting additions from his travels to Australia, New Zealand, America and Japan. There are three new ideas in Happy Days With the Naked Chef. Jamie has included a chapter on "Comfort Food" the kind of cooking Nigel Slater and Nigella Lawson specialise in. He has recipes for Toad in the Hole, Fish Finger Buttie and Sticky Sausage Bap with Melted Cheese and Brown Sauce. In his "Quick Fixes" chapter, he has selected dishes where saving time and minimal washing up are the key ingredients. These include a Steak Sarnie and Chicken Breast Baked in a Bag with Mushrooms, Butter, White Wine and Thyme. He has also included a "Kids Club" chapter, which is offers inspiration for parents trying to get their children excited about food. The new additions don't dominate the book as the remaining two-thirds contain Jamie's standard Italian-style fare: simple salads, fish, meat, vegetables, breads and pudding. Don't miss the excellent recipe for Medallions of Beef with Morels and Marsala and Crème Fraîche Sauce. Jamie has also been travelling and you'll find recipes with pak choy, soy sauce and ginger popping up here and there, delicious! Jamie is one of Britain's best-loved chefs; he has made cooking interesting and accessible. He believes in getting the most out of ingredients and making tasty, easy, sociable food with the minimum of fuss. "Happy Days" is filled with recipes for different occasions.

Trade Paperback. The young protagonists of David Odhiambo's novel Kipligat's Chance test the limits of their bodies and their wills as they strive for both the gilded limelight of the Olympics and the material payoff afforded by scholarships to prestigious American universities. The author himself is testing limits in this important work, as well; boundaries of race, age, nationality, gender, and creed are all stretched in this dazzling, harrowing cascade from pillar to post.The story is narrated by John "Leeds" Kipligat, and follows the young African-Canadian runner and his best friend Kulvinder-also an athlete with Olympic aspirations-as they attempt to dream a passage out of obscurity and poverty. First comes the act of imagining the possibility of better, more prosperous lives ("We'll meet chicks from places like Toronto"), next comes the regimented training that the two hopefuls must endure under the strict mentorship of Sam Holt, an Olympic has-been turned track coach, and alongside two women runners who are driven towards similar goals.In a story that revolves around running and racing, there is sure to be a certain quantity of intensity and speed, and Kipligat's Chance is a marathon of vigor. But there is also much humor, compassion, and love, delivered with ineffable subtlety by Odhiambo, filtered through the harshness and profanity of the young men's worlds. In a jacket quote from George Elliott Clarke, we read: "In this masterful novel, James Brown grit meets James Baldwin grace." The comparison to Baldwin is apt, but perhaps incomplete.

Der sechsjährige Sol, die sechsjährige Erra: In wie unterschiedlichen Lebenswelten wachsen sie auf! Sol, verwöhnt, altklug und öfter im Internet unterwegs, als seine gluckenhafte Mutter erfahren darf, lebt in jenem Land, in dem <<Gott mit Bush befreunder ist>>. Erra, das glückliche Mädchen mit der Wunderstimme, das in Trümmern spielt, salutiert noch vor Adolf Hitler. Erra ist Sols Urgrossmutter. Über Generationen sind die beiden verbunden, und dennoch liegt in dieser Genealogie ein unentdecktes Geheimnis verborgen. Was ist etwa mit dem hässlichen Muttermal an Sols Schläfe, das er sich wegoperieren lässt? Was mit dem grenzenlosen Hass seines Vaters? Niemand setzt sich auf dieselbe Weise an den Tisch der Geschichte, und Lüge, Untreue und Verrat bestimmen die Art, wie sie in dieser Familie von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben wird. Es bleibt den aufmerksamen Kindern überlassen, die Brüche und Verwerfungen in den Erzählungen ihrer Eltern zu deuten. Und so mit Hilfe ihrer klaren, nur scheinbar naiven Stimmen, führt uns Nancy Huston über vier Generationen und durch mehrere Kontinente ins Zentrum des diesem Roman zugrundeliegenden Rätsels. <<Ein winziger Makel>> ist ein spannendes, raffiniert und originell konstruiertes Buch, zeitkritisch, politisch, aber auch sehr intim und berührend. Nancy Huston wurde 1953 in Calgary, Kanada, geboren, wuchs in den USA auf. Seit 1973 lebt sie in Paris. Sie ist mit dem Linguisten und Philosophen Tzvetan Todorov verheiratet und hat zwei Kinder. Huston hat zahlreiche Romane und Sachbücher veröffentlicht; für ihr Werk wurde sie in Kanada u.a. mit dem Governor General's Award for Fiction und in Frankreich mit dem Prix Goncourt des Lycéens ausgezeichnet. Für <<Ein winziger Makel>> erhielt sie 2006 den Prix Femina; das Buch war in Frankreich ein Nr.-1-Bestseller. A novel about four generations of a German family and the enduring effects of a dark secret about the family's origins. The novel is organized in reverse chronological order proceeding from 2004 to 1944 and is divided into four sections in which the narration is provided by a child. Like the novel's transition in time, there is an equally broad movement in space with the settings shifting from the West Coast of the United States to the East, from Haifa to Toronto to Munich. The story begins with with the experiences of the gifted six-year-old Sol. He is sheltered by an over-protective mother. Surgery to remove a congenital birthmark goes badly and the extended family travels to great-grandmother's childhood home in Munich. Once there, Sol witnesses a physical struggle between his great-grandmother and his great-aunt which is a trigger to send the narrative thread back through the childhood of Sol's father, his grandmother, and finally his great-grandmother living in 1944 Munich. Nancy Huston was born in 1953 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. She was written novels and nonfiction in French and English and has made some noted translations of her own works. Huston grew up in Canada, Germany, and the United States. She left Sarah Lawrence College in New York to attend the École des Hautes Études in Paris, where she studied linguistics and semiotics with the French philosopher and critic Roland Barthes. In the 1970s she was active in the womens movement and went on to teach at Columbia Universitys Institute for Feminist Studies in Paris in the 1980s. After Barthess death in 1980, Huston decided to remain in France and shifted her work as a writer to the production of novels. She later married the Franco-Bulgarian literary theorist and philosopher Tzvetan Todorov. Her earlier nonfiction works have been somewhat controversial but her fiction has received wide, international critical acclaim. Her first novel, 'Les Variations Goldberg (The Goldberg Variations)', was short-listed for the Prix Femina. In 1993 she was awarded the Governor Generals Award for best French-language novel for 'Cantique des plaines (Plainsong)'. Her later novels include 'Virevolte (Slow Emergencies)', 'LEmpreinte de lange (The Mark of the Angel)', and 'Dolce agonia'. She received the Prix Femina a second time, for 'Lignes de faille (Fault Lines)' and it was also shortlisted for the Orange Prize. She has published twelve novels so far and continues to live in Paris with her husband and two children. 5.4"x8.3", 367 pages. Zufriedenheit garantiert (satisfaction guaranteed)..

Browns fans need to know that about the reincarnated franchise that returned to the National Football League in 1999. The NFL never should have allowed Art Modell to hijack the franchise to Baltimore. But Modell was one of the boys, a veteran owner, and the league loves to take care of its own. And if it's unfair to the fans, so what? They'll just put an expansion team in there and make even more money in the process. It was all about money. Never forget that. Money for Modell, and money for his lodge brothers in the NFL owners boxes. This is the book the NFL really doesn't want you to read. It's the story of how some of the best football fans in the country were betrayed, abused, and finally stuck with an inferior product-but charged more for it. What has been the return on their investment? What have fans, who bought every ticket for every game since the Browns came back in 1999, received as a reward? Heartaches, headaches and frustration. Is it possible the Browns can overcome all this and even be a contender any time soon? This is the NFL, where it seems almost any team can make the Super Bowl, unless it happens to be playing in Cleveland. So, yes, the Browns could have a playoff team in the near future. They could finally make their fans bark for joy rather than howl in pain. But if it happens, it's because the team has overcome a ridiculous number of obstacles, most of which were put into place by a league that has dollar signs for eyes. And that makes me mad, because Browns fans deserve better., Gray & Company, Publishers, 2004, 4, ReganBooks, 2004-10-12. Hardcover. Good. Signed. Inscribed by author on half title page.

The Da Vinci Hoax explodes these claims, demonstrating how Brown uses unsubstantiated research and far-fetched hypotheses to bolster his outlandish thesis that Jesus & Mary Magdalene were married and established a sacred bloodline & that traditional Christianity has conspired throughout history to suppress this truth."

Thomas (1913-2000) is a major writer of our time, one of the finest religious poets in the English language and one of Wales's greatest poets. His output was prolific: over six decades he published some 25 individual collections of poems, as well as several volumes of prose. A substantial number of his poems, however, have hitherto remained uncollected, and often elusive poems published in newspapers, magazines and journals (many of them obscure), as well as in private or limited editions. Uncollected Poems - published to mark the centenary of Thomas's birth - brings together for the first time a rigorous selection of the best of these. The fruit of several years' research by Tony Brown and Jason Walford Davies, the volume makes available work which spans the whole of Thomas's career from an early sonnet to his first wife, M.E. Eldridge (included in his first, unpublished, collection Spindrift in the late 1930s) and an early Iago Prytherch poem published in the Dublin Magazine, to poems which are powerful expressions of the metaphysical meditations of his later years. R.S. Thomas's Uncollected Poems takes its place alongside Collected Poems 1945-1990 (Dent, 1993; Phoenix, 2000), Selected Poems (Penguin, 2003) and Collected Later Poems 1988-2000 (Bloodaxe Books, 2004). It gives readers of R.S. Thomas's work access to much new and fascinating material. We are specialists in Poetry, please ask to see our full catalogue.

Aber Herbold kann auch sehr geduldig und gerissen sein. Denn er lebt für seine Rache: Rache an seinem verhassten Stiefvater Delray Corbett, der ihn und seinen Bruder einst verstossen hat. Die Flucht aus dem Sicherheitsgefängnis ist für ihn nur der erste Schachzug in einem mörderischen Spiel. Denn auf dem Weg nach Texas hört Carl von der jungen Frau, die inzwischen auf der Corbett-Ranch wohnt: Anna, die taubstumme Witwe von Corbetts Sohn. Herbolds ganz spezieller Feind, der rastlose Jack Sawyer, hat sich seit zwanzig Jahren von seiner Heimatstadt Blewer fern gehalten. Als er jedoch von Carl Herbolds Flucht erfährt, rast er wie von Furien gehetzt zur Corbett-Ranch. Denn jetzt ist es für ihn an der Zeit, eine alte Rechnung zu begleichen. Dass er aber auf die schöne, empfindsame Anna Corbett treffen würde, hat Jack nicht erwartet. Und genau da setzt Herbold mit seinem diabolischen Katz-und-Maus-Spiel an German.translator:Mechthild Sandberg-Cilettiseries:Best bookNotice:This item ships from Hamburg, Germany., RM Buch und Medien, 2004, 3, Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2004-04-01.

ABSOLUTE FRIENDS is a superbly paced novel spanning fifty-six years, a theatrical masterstroke of tragi-comic writing, and a savage fable of our times, almost of our hours. The friends of the title are Ted Mundy, British soldier's son born 1947 in a shining new independent Pakistan, and Sasha, refugee son of an East German Lutheran pastor and his wife who have sought sanctuary in the West. The two men meet first as students in riot-torn West Berlin of the late Sixties, again in the grimy looking-glass of Cold War espionage and, most terribly, in today's unipolar world of terror, counter-terror and the war of lies. Deriving its scale from A PERFECT SPY and its passion from THE CONSTANT GARDENER, Le Carré's new novel presents us with magical writing, characters to delight, and a spellbinding story that enchants even as it challenges.
