As ever, Jeffrey Brown’s charming illustrations and humor glow throughout, with clever rhyming text playing on children’s book conventions to enchant adults and kids alike.

The Bread ExchangeTales and Recipes from a Journey of Baking and Sharing

By Malin Elmlid

An ode to a life warmly lived, The Bread Exchange tells the story of one woman’s hunger for greater meaning in her life and how it has been enriched by the sharing of her hand-made bread. From her cozy kitchen in Berlin to a flat in London, from a deck in New York City to huddling around a tandoor in Kabul, the author shares discoveries, stories, and recipes from her inspiring travels. A busy fashion-industry professional with a bread-baking obsession, Malin Elmlid started offering her loaves to others in return for recipes, handmade goods, and, above all, special experiences that come from giving generously of yourself. Here is a book of tales and reflections, of wanderlust connections, and more than 50 recipes for Malin’s naturally leavened breads and other delicious things collected on a journey honoring the staff and the stuff of life.

Bar TartineTechniques & Recipes • By Nick Balla and Cortney Burns

Photographs by Chad Robertson

Here’s a cookbook destined to be talked-about this season, rich in techniques and recipes epitomizing the way we cook and eat now. Bar Tartine—co-founded by Tartine Bakery’s Chad Robertson and Elisabeth Prueitt—is obsessed over by locals and visitors, critics and chefs. It is a restaurant that defies categorization, but not description: Everything is made in-house and layered into extraordinarily flavorful food. Helmed by Nick Balla and Cortney Burns, it draws on French traditions, time-honored processes (such as fer-mentation, curing, pickling), and a core that runs through the cuisines of Central Europe, Japan, and Scandinavia to deliver a range of dishes from appetizers through main courses to desserts. With more than 150 photographs, this highly anticipated cookbook is a true original.

“Unclassifiable but utterly delicious cuisine.”—The Guardian

1892 JULIA WARHOLA 1972

ANDY WARHOL’S MOTHER

Andy Warhol, the most recognizable art star of the twentieth century, had been a sickly child, suffering from scarlet fever and St. Vitus Dance, and his mother kept him home from

school at the slightest complaint. His two brothers said he often exploited the specter of his poor health to stay home with her, and she was grateful for the company. Julia placed his bed at the edge of the kitchen so Andy would always be at her side. This sickroom, looking in on his mother’s kitchen workshop, became Andy Warhol’s first art studio.

Julia Warhola (née Zavacky) was born in Mikova, Czecho-slovakia, on November 17, 1892. She married Ondrej Warhola in 1909 and immigrated to the United States in 1921. With no TV or radio, Julia and Andy used nearly constant art-making to cope with the poverty, isolation, and loneliness they expe-rienced as outsiders in urban Pittsburgh.

“I drew pictures so Andy made pictures when he was a little boy. He liked to do that, sure, he made very nice pic-tures.” Julia said. She exposed Andy to pop-culture imagery and encouraged him to transform it. “I buy him comic books. Cut, cut, cut, nice. Cut out pictures. Oh, he liked pictures from comic books.”

Andy greatly respected his mother’s creative abilities, frequently citing her direct influence on his work. “The tin flowers she made out of those fruit tins, that’s the reason why I did my first tin-can paintings. My mother always had lots of cans around, including the soup cans. She was a wonderful woman and a real good and correct artist.”

In his early twenties, Andy moved to New York City to try to make it as a commercial illustrator. He had trouble finding work, so Julia prayed for him every day and, when she could, sent letters with a one- or five-dollar bill enclosed. In the spring of 1952, Julia learned that Andy was nearly destitute. She left her home in Pittsburgh to live with her son in his squalid apartment on East 75th Street. They had to share a bedroom, sleeping on mattresses on the floor, but with Julia there to take care of him and the household, Andy was able to spend long hours making art at the kitchen table.

Commercial drawing work picked up for Andy, and mother and son became official collaborators in what seemed to them a natural arrangement. In 1954, amid their growing menag-erie of house cats, they created two books together, 25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy and Holy Cats by Andy War-hol’s Mother. Andy loved his mother’s calligraphy and asked her to write the titles and even sign his name on many of his pieces. As Andy adopted his talismanic silvery wigs and fey clothing, friends began to comment on how Andy and Julia were growing increasingly similar in appearance.

In a nostalgic nod to coming home for lunch in grammar school (when Julia gave Andy a bowl of Campbell’s soup every day), Andy sent Julia to the store to buy cans of Camp-bell’s soup, one of each of the thirty-two varieties, that would become his hallmark imagery. Andy’s obsessive representa-tion of American visual icons and celebrity can be read as a desperate attempt to shed the mantle of the foreigner and social outsider that he and his mother shared.

The more the art world took notice of Andy, the more the strain on the codependent mother–son relationship grew. Andy spent more time away and was often embarrassed by his babushka-wearing mother who spoke little English. Fed up with Andy’s profligate spending and her increasing loneli-ness, Julia moved back to Pittsburgh. Andy demanded she return to New York and, upon her arrival, Julia expressed frustration at her lack of recognition by yelling, “I am Andy Warhol!”

Despite mounting tensions, Julia continued to influence Andy’s work and was featured in some of his films, including a starring role as an aging, bleach-blonde playgirl. Once, when a visiting friend asked Julia if she’d had a good night’s sleep, she said, “Oh, no! I stayed up all night watching Andy sleep.” This loving gaze is mirrored in Andy’s 1964 film Sleep, a five-hour, twenty-minute-long shot of his sleeping boyfriend.

Her health failing, Andy sent his mother back to Pittsburgh in 1971. Julia Warhola died on November 22, 1972. Her last words to her son Paul were, “Promise me you’ll take care of Andy.” Andy Warhol, unable to make sense of the loss, did not attend his mother’s funeral and did not tell his closest col-leagues of her death.

1938 IAN STEWART 1985

ROLL ING STONES’ S IXTH MEMBER

He looks like a coal miner,” said Andrew Loog Oldham, the Rolling Stones’ newly appointed, image-conscious manager, insisting that the extremely talented pianist Ian Stewart

be kicked out of the group.Stewart, as a founding member, helped shape the group’s

lineup. The only one with access to a phone, he booked the band’s early shows from his shipping-clerk desk at Imperial Chemical Industries, drove the band to gigs in a VW van he bought for that purpose, secured the first recording date, and, as one of the best rhythm-and-blues players in England, provided the backbone to the group’s emerging sound.

The other Stones, hungry for fame and a record contract, went along with Oldham’s decision to sack their friend, who was several years older, heavyset, paid little attention to his clothing, and had an extended lower chin as the result of a childhood illness.

Keith Richards, recalling Stewart’s reaction to going from full-fledged group member to road manager, observed, “I’d probably have said, ‘Well, fuck you,’ but he said, ‘OK, I’ll just drive you around.’ That takes a big heart.”

Initially barred from playing with the band onstage for his lack of a fashionable bad-boy look, Stewart appeared on all but two Rolling Stones albums made during his lifetime, contributing to some of the band’s best-known songs. But he would refuse to play on any song, like “Wild Horses,” that had minor chords—or, as he called them, “Chinese chords.”

Mick Jagger said, “Stu was the one guy we tried to please. We wanted his approval when we were writing or rehearsing a song. We’d want him to like it.”

By the late ’60s, he would be seen at concerts tuning a gui-tar one minute, adjusting a speaker the next, and then

ambling over to the piano when a song had the type of boogie-woogie beat that he relished.

After taking down the stage after each show, he’d move the piano last, playing it before an empty auditorium with the same abandon he would before a crowd of screaming thousands.

Stewart remained a confidant of the group while disliking their drug use and socialite habits, preferring to visit obscure jazz and blues clubs while touring. He continually vexed the band by booking far-off hotels due to their access to cham-pionship golf courses, which he, a Scotsman, would avidly play as the frustrated band found itself too far from the city to locate groupies.

Stewart maintained old friendships and never moved from the neighborhood he lived in before the band was formed. “I don’t like rock ’n’ roll as a way of life,” he said. “I think it’s awful. Most of the people who are living on rock ’n’ roll are living in a dream world.”

“I think Stu looked on us as overpaid and overindulged, and I suppose he was right,” said Charlie Watts.

While recording Dirty Work with the Stones in 1985, Stewart died of a massive heart attack in a doctor’s office waiting room.

“I always thought he’d be the one to shovel the dirt on us all,” Richards said.

“He’d have to load the van, pick us up, drive us home at six in the morning. That was his life for years, and I think it took its toll on him. I believe that devotion to the Rolling Stones was the reason for his death,” said Bill Wyman.

When inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Stones requested that Stewart be listed a member.

“To me,” said Richards later, “the Rolling Stones is his band. It was his vision.”

The Who, the What, and the When65 Artists Illustrate the Secret Sidekicks of History

By Jenny Volvovski, Julia Rothman, and Matt Lamothe

In the bestselling tradition of The Where, the Why, and the How, this offbeat illustrated history reveals 65 people you’ve probably never heard of, but who helped shape the word as we know it. Muses and neighbors, friends and rela-tives, accomplices and benefactors—such as Michael and Joy Brown, who gifted Harper Lee a year’s worth of wages to help her write To Kill a Mockingbird. Or John Ordway, the colleague who walked with Lewis and Clark every step of the way. Each eye-opening story of these unsung heroes is written by a notable historian and illustrated by a top indie artist, making The Who, the What, and the When a treasure trove of word and image for history buffs, art lovers, and anyone who rejoices in unexpected discovery.

Jenny Volvovski, Julia Rothman, and Matt Lamothe are partners in

Ancient cultures, from the Hebrews to the Hindus, believed the nectar of pomegranates enhanced fertility. Bartenders may use grenadine syrup for its tart, sweet taste, but design-ers from the Prohibition Era through today use the color for its sex appeal.

Jean Charles Worth’s 1926 rhinestone-encrusted Mandarin Red dress was befitting of the era’s continuous party, and its color likely masked the spills of any similarly hued beverages. And though the Great Depression instan-taneously killed the mood, glamour lived on in the 1930s. In November 1934, Harper’s Bazaar illustrator Reynaldo Luza captured a “Chinese Red” dress by Eva Lutyens (neé Lywbrinska). While the fame of her father-in-law, archi-tect Sir Edwin Lutyens, exceeded her own over time, in 1940, Eva Lutyens was given the same repute as other London couturiers like Norman Hartnell and Victor Stiebel.

Two-time-Oscar-nominated costume designer Irene Lentz, who dressed Lana Turner and Doris Day, isn’t known as well as Edith Head or Adrian, but her work pos-sesses a timeless Hollywood allure. Lentz’s ombre gown, which appeared to have been dip-dyed in Grenadine, was featured prominently in a dance scene from the 1948 film Easter Parade starring Fred Astaire and Judy Garland.

Starting in 1967, Elio Fiorucci quickly showed “the world a ‘new’ Italy, an Italy that could set trends.” His New York store, considered the first concept shop, was beloved by friend Andy Warhol and nicknamed “The Daytime Studio 54.”54 In the late ’70s and early ’80s, Fiorucci transformed rain boots into something to love. By cropping waders to slightly above the ankles, lining them in wool, and adding a kitten heel, the second-generation Italian shoemaker’s “Love Boots” in Fiesta red made women look forward to rainy days.

Vany and Thando Mangaliso’s South African–based label Sun Goddess presents “a regal Africa . . . one of legends, kings and queens, gods and goddesses.”55 Though self-exoticizing, the label refutes stereotypes of a poverty-ridden continent devoid of high fashion, instead offering and defining African luxury. The pair explains, “We make African clothing for African people. As much as we follow interna-tional trends, we . . . combine them with African trends, and we make something quite contemporary and wearable for African women,” like their 2008 Cherry Tomato–colored, gold-embroidered strapless dress.56

There’s nothing mellow about this yellow. It’s kinetic and optimistic, perfectly complementing what former model and Vogue creative director Grace Coddington called the “snap, crackle, and Mod of the Sixties youthquake.”10 The color not only adorned Harvey Ball’s 1963 Smiley Face logo, but also garments galore. In 1969, eccentric British designer Zandra Rhodes silk-screened her “Button Flower” print onto Vibrant Yellow fabric, producing her first piece of outerwear. Introduced to “two wonderful, mad Ukrainian-American models”11 by David Bailey, Rhodes followed their advice and headed to New York. Vogue editrice Diana Vreeland went wild for Rhodes’s wacky work and pushed Henri Bendel to peruse it. Bendel purchased the entire collection for his high-end department store and suddenly society ladies on Fifth Avenue were looking groovy.

The unfettered joy of Vibrant Yellow is inherently con-frontational, making it the perfect pigment for United Colors of Benetton. The company, originally founded by siblings Luciano and Giuliana Benetton, desired not only to pro-mote color, but also erase society’s color barriers. Oliviero Toscani’s advertisements, which ignored Benetton’s basic knitwear, focused instead on decidedly un-sunshiny global problems.

For Anna Sui’s first runway show, she reinterpreted 1960s Carnaby Street with a punk-meets-grunge twist. Her head-to-toe Cyber Yellow look for Fall 1991 was visually affronting, perfect for Generation Xers looking to shock.

While Converse sneakers have barely changed over the last century, the demographic wearing them continues to shift. Worn first by basketball players, like Charles “Chuck” Taylor in 1918, Converse All Stars were later embraced by musicians like the Ramones and Kurt Cobain. The “alternative” crowd from Hunter S. Thompson-reading-high-schoolers to Bushwick hipsters continues to clamor for the affordable, durable footwear that singer Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs considers a “no-bullshit shoe.”12 But the bright and buttery Dandelion Converse seems to complement daylight better than nightlife.

muffins / 35

These started out as olive oil–cocoa nib muffins that were good but not great. Slowly I began to work on them and tweak little things here and there, but they still just weren’t right. I was about to throw in the towel when I thought I would try adding just a little butter, who would know? Well, my love of butter runs deep. Real deep. So a little became a little more, until I could no longer justify calling them olive oil muffins. So here we have our rich Cocoa Nib Muffins. Please serve these as a fun treat at your next brunch.

cocoa nib muffins with dark chocolate glaze

MAKES 12 MUFFINS

MUFFINS

2 eggs2 egg yolks½ cup + 2 tbsp/130 g sugar7 tbsp/100 ml extra-virgin olive oil5 tbsp/70 g unsalted butter, melted2 tbsp dry white wine1½ tbsp maple syrup1 tbsp vanilla extract¾ tsp kosher salt¾ cup/90 g all-purpose flour¼ cup/40 g cornmeal1 tsp baking powder¼ cup/XX g cocoa nibs

GLAZE⅔ cup/165 ml heavy cream⅔ cup/120 g chopped dark chocolate, 60 to 70% cacao

Cocoa nibs for sprinkling (optional)

1. To make the muffins: Preheat your oven to 350°F/180°C. Line one 12-cup muffin pan with 12 paper liners.

2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, com-bine the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar and beat on medium-high speed until thick and ribbony, 2 to 3 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine the olive oil, melted butter, wine, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt. Whisk together.

4. Slowly pour the olive oil mixture into the egg mixture with the mixer on low. Pause mixing and add the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and cocoa nibs. Mix until just incorporated.

5. Pour the batter into the muffin cups, filling them almost all the way to the top. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the muffins slightly spring back to the touch. Please do not overbake! Allow the muffins to cool for about 10 minutes.

6. To make the glaze: Bring the cream to a boil in a small pan over medium-high heat, then immediately pour it over the chocolate in a small bowl. Allow the mixture to sit undisturbed for about 1 minute to melt. Then stir with a wooden spoon until homogenous.

7. Spoon glaze over each muffin, allowing a little to drip down the sides, and sprinkle with nibs, if you like.

These keep nicely, tightly wrapped, at room temperature, for up to 2 days.

My husband and I share a favorite easy snack of smashed avocado on a good piece of toast with a little salt. This dish is a slightly more evolved version of that. I use hard-boiled eggs because, first of all, I love them, and second, I wanted to give you an alternative to all the fried egg sandwich recipes in case you don’t want to get stuck in your kitchen frying eggs à la minute. The anchovy dressing pairs perfectly with the eggs and adds a healthy amount of much-needed acidity to the rich fattiness of the avocado and the eggs.

1. Put the eggs in a medium saucepan with water to cover by about 2 in/5 cm. Bring to a boil, then immediately turn off the heat, cover, and allow to sit for 12 minutes. Remove the eggs from the pan and refrigerate on a dish until cool.

2. To make the dressing: Combine all the ingredients except the chives in a blender or food processor. Blend until homogenous, transfer to a small bowl, and fold in the chives. Set aside.

3. Preheat your oven to 500°F/260°C.

4. When the eggs have cooled, peel off the shells. I find this easiest to do under a little running water. Slice the eggs into ¼-in/6-mm rounds and set aside.

5. Scoop the flesh from the avocados and transfer to a bowl with ¾ tsp salt and the lemon juice. Using a fork or a potato masher, lightly smash the avocados.

6. Arrange the bread on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and toast in the oven. When the bread is toasted, drizzle 1½ tbsp of dressing over each slice. Top with the smashed avocado, the more the better, followed by 2 sliced hard-boiled eggs. Drizzle with ½ to 1 tbsp more dressing, to taste. Top with a small handful of the lettuce and squeeze 1 lemon quarter over each.

This must be eaten the moment it’s made. Does not keep well.

So This Is PermanenceLyrics and Notebooks • By Ian Curtis • Foreword by Deborah Curtis

Introduction by Jon Savage

So This Is Permanence collects for the first time the intensely personal writings of one of the most enigmatic and influential songwriters and performers of the late twentieth century, Joy Division’s Ian Curtis. The fact of the band’s relatively few releases belies the power and enduring fascination their music holds, especially in light of Curtis’s tragic suicide in 1980 on the eve of the band’s first American tour. Repro-duced in this beautiful clothbound volume are Curtis's never-before-seen handwritten lyrics, accompanied by earlier drafts and previously unpublished pages from his notebooks that shed fascinating light on his writing and creative process. Also included are rare fanzine interviews, a substantial introduction by music writer Jon Savage and a moving foreword by Curtis’s widow, Deborah—all together illuminating this compelling figure.

Ian Curtis (1956–1980) was the lyricist and vocalist for Joy Division,

who released the landmark post-punk albums Unknown Pleasures

and Closer and a number of powerful singles, including “Love Will

Tear Us Apart.”

Jon Savage has been writing about music for a range of publications

since 1977. His books include the classic England’s Dreaming: Sex

Pistols and Punk Rock. He lives in North Wales.

Deborah Curtis is the author of Touching from a Distance: Ian Curtis

and Joy Division. She lives in Cheshire, England.

Zombies Have IssuesBy Greg Stones

As we know from Greg Stones’s first breakout hit book, zombies hate stuff. It’s less understood that the undead also struggle with the stuff of everyday life usually navigated by the breathing. Zombies have issues with yoga, bad hair days, chopsticks, the morning commute, touch-screen technology, and more. They kind of enjoy skunks, gardening, and acupuncture, but they have major issues with banana peels, Renaissance fairs, bear traps, and bunnies. In the face of such adversity, all zombies really want is a cure. With humor, wit, and braaaains, Greg Stones’s colorful painted panels offer a sympathetically funny, new perspective into the trials and tribulations of the undead in a world made for the living.

Greg Stones is an artist and the author of Zombies Hate Stuff and

Penguins Hate Stuff. He lives and works in Rhode Island.

As Easy as 1-2-3

Take the pie out of the freezer. Carefully cut 4 or 5 slits in the center of the top crust to allow steam to escape while the pie is baking. Lightly and evenly brush the egg mixture on the crust, making sure that the egg does not pool anywhere. Sprin-kle the top of the pie evenly with the remaining cane sugar; you probably won’t need the entire amount.

Put a foil–lined rimmed baking sheet on the lower rack to catch any juices overflowing from the pie as it bakes. Put the pie on the center rack and bake for 20 minutes after which I usually find that the crust is starting to brown, even though the rest of the pie hasn’t had enough time in the oven. If it is, carefully place strips of foil around the crust edges to prevent burning or over-browning. Reduce the heat to 350°F/180°C and continue baking for an additional 22 to 30 minutes, until the pie is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and thick.

Transfer the pie to a wire rack for at least 1 hour to cool before serving. I usually let it cool com-pletely so that the filling will thicken further and blueberry juices will not run everywhere once I cut the pie.

NOTETo make a lattice crust, refer to the Note on page xxx.

Blueberries freeze well. They are at their peak in the summer; if you can, stock up on them during this time and freeze them.

No Land’s ManBy Aasif Mandvi

Indo-British-Muslim-American Aasif Mandvi—best known for his work as a correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart—has been dealing with his identity issues across three continents and thirty years. With wit, smarts, and a good dose of hard-earned perspective, Mandvi shares his journey from battling bullies and idealizing the Fonz as a child in England to becoming a teenage Michael Jackson impersonator in Tampa, Florida, and playing snake charm-ers, taxi drivers and eventually a fake journalist as an actor in New York, where he was even once told that he wasn’t “Indian” enough for a role. A mix of humorous stories, heartfelt observations, and misfit mayhem, No Land’s Man is a laugh-out-loud account of a second-generation immi-grant’s search for meaning and identity in an increasingly confusing world.

Aasif Mandvi is an Indian-American actor

and writer. He has been a regular corre-

spondent on The Daily Show with Jon

Stewart since 2006. Mandvi has appeared

in numerous film and television produc-

tions, including Today’s Special, which he

co-wrote. He was the recipient of a 1999

Obie Award for his critically acclaimed

one-man show Sakina’s Restaurant. He

lives in New York City.

IN NINETEEN EIGHTY-TWO my father, my mother, my sister and I heeded Ronald Reagan’s message to the world that it was morning again in America. We had very little idea what that meant, though we assumed that a morning in America would be much nicer than a dreary afternoon in the North of England, so we came. We replaced our red brick semi-detached bungalow with a chimney for a lime green stucco house with a swimming pool. We replaced our sweaters and boots with shorts and flip-flops, we replaced the sound of magpies for the sound of tropical insects, and we came to the great state of Florida to embrace the new sunrise called the nineteen eighties….

Thoughts on DesignBy Paul Rand • Foreword by Michael Bierut

One of the seminal texts of graphic design, Paul Rand’s Thoughts on Design is now back in print for the first time since the 1970s. Writing at the height of his career, Rand articulated in his slender volume the pioneering vision that all design should seamlessly integrate form and function. This facsimile edition preserves Rand’s original 1947 essay with the adjustments he made to its text and imagery for a revised printing in 1970, and adds only an informative and inspiring new foreword by design luminary Michael Bierut. As relevant today as it was when first published, this clas-sic treatise is an indispensable addition to the library of every designer.

Paul Rand (1914–1996) is widely recognized as one of the major

influences in the history of graphic design.

dark chocolate soufflé

This combination has been tested time and time again. You can’t go wrong with dark

chocolate and burnt caramel. The intensity of the caramel and the bittersweet choco-

late matches well with the extreme contrast of the steaming hot soufflé and the

chill of the ice cream. I encourage you to pour the chocolate sauce tableside into the

soufflé, because it creates a pool of goodness that you’ll find your guests delightedly

digging into. YIELD: 5 SERVINGS

1/2 recipe Dark Chocolate Soufflé batter (see page 172)

1 cup (240 ml) Three-Minute Chocolate Sauce (page 178)

250 g/1 cup Salty Hazelnut & Brown Sugar Crumbles (page 46)

1 cup (240 ml) Burnt Caramel Ice Cream (page 98)

Prepare five individual soufflés, without baking, up to 6 hours in advance. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Gently place the soufflés in the center of the oven and bake for 7 to 10 min-utes. While the soufflés are baking, warm up the chocolate sauce and stir to emulsify it so that it is warm and ready to go when the souf-flés come out of the oven. Place 2 tbsp of the hazelnut crumble on the left side of each plate.

After 7 minutes, check on your soufflés. They should have risen at least 11/2 in (4 cm) above the tops of the ramekins. A perfectly baked soufflé will be just barely soft in the middle, so

that there is a dime-size spot in the center that is just a little bit darker than the rest of the souf-flé. If the soufflés are not ready when you check them, bake for another 2 to 3 minutes.

Scoop a generous amount of ice cream on top of the crumble. When the soufflés are done, place one on each plate, opposite the ice cream. At tableside, push a serving spoon directly down into the center of each soufflé and then rotate it 90 degrees to create a well in the cen-ter. Pour about 2 tbsp chocolate sauce onto the spoon so that it slides into the soufflé. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Chain Saw ConfidentialHow We Made the World’s Most Notorious Horror Movie

By Gunnar Hansen

The original 1974 film The Texas Chain Saw Massacre seized the imaginations of audiences and critics alike. A controversial cult sensation recognized by Total Film as the greatest horror movie ever made, it’s been shown at Cannes, briefly banned in England, and included in the permanent collection of New York’s MoMA. This fascinating literary memoir of the making of the film comes from the utterly unique perspective of Gunnar Hansen, the actor who played the chain saw-wielding Leatherface. A critically acclaimed poet and author, Hansen tells the real story of the film, debunking myths, giving behind-the-scenes details, and offering insights on the film’s reception and our enduring fascination with the horror genre today.

Gunnar Hansen is the author of several books of history, travel, and

poetry. He lives on the coast of Maine.

“ I wish every notable movie had a diarist or observer as clear-eyed and thorough as Gunnar Hansen.”

Dead MountainThe Untold True Story of the Dyatlov Pass Incident • By Donnie Eichar

In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the incident—unsettling and unexplained causes of death, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and signs of radio-activity—have led to decades of speculation over what really happened. This gripping work of literary nonfiction delves into the mystery through unprecedented access to the hikers’ own journals and photographs, government case files, dozens of interviews, and the author’s retracing of the hikers’ fate-ful journey in the Russian winter. A fascinating portrait of the young hikers and a skillful interweaving of their story and the author’s investigations, here for the first time is the real story of what happened that night on Dead Mountain.

Donnie Eichar is a critically acclaimed film and TV director and

producer. He lives in Malibu, California.

“ A gripping book, at least as dramatic as Krakauer’s Into Thin Air.”

hollandaise into a heatproof bowl and set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. If the sauce is too thick, add hot water, 1 tbsp at a time, to reach your desired consistency.

When the grits are cold and firm, use a 3-in/7.5-cm round cookie cutter to cut them into circles. You should have 8 grits cakes.

Preheat the oven to 250°F/120°C. Place the ham, if using, in a single layer on a baking sheet to warm in the oven while frying the grits cakes.

In a large cast-iron pan, add oil to a depth of 1/2 in/12 mm. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F/180°C on an instant-read thermometer. The oil should be hot but not smok-ing. Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels and set a wire rack on top.

In a shallow dish, combine the flour and the Creole Spice Mix. In another shallow dish, lightly beat the egg. In a third shallow dish, pour in the bread crumbs. Set a baking sheet next to the bread crumbs.

Working in batches, dredge the grits cakes in the f lour mix-ture, shaking off the excess. Dip the grits cakes in in the beaten egg and then in the bread crumbs, lightly pressing the bread crumbs into the cakes. Put the grits cakes on the baking sheet.

To make the cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.

Punch down the dough. On a lightly floured surface, pat into a rough rectangle. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll into a large rectangle about 1/4 in/6 mm thick. Brush dough with the melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. With the long side facing you, roll the dough into a log and pinch the seam to seal. Cut the log into 12 pieces, yielding 12 buns. Arrange the buns cut-side up in the prepared pan. Cover the buns with plas-tic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C.

Bake the buns until golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then invert onto a large platter. Spoon any extra goo over the buns. Serve warm.

(To make ahead, cover tightly in plastic wrap and refriger-ate for up to 1 day. Unwrap and reheat on a baking sheet in a 350°F/180°C oven for about 15 minutes.)

Brown Sugar KitchenNew-Style, Down-Home Recipes from Sweet West Oakland

By Tanya Holland with Jan Newberry • Photographs by Jody Horton

Brown Sugar Kitchen is a great soul-food restaurant and community gathering spot. It’s the home of chicken and waffles whose legend travels far beyond its West Oakland neighborhood, according to national food critics and the lines out the door. Waiting in line won’t be necessary any-more, thanks to this great cookbook, which collects more than 85 recipes for restaurant favorites, from biscuits to gumbo, with towering layer cakes, refreshing drinks, and other treats to begin or finish a meal. The recipes showcase chef/owner Tanya Holland’s Southern style, heavily influ-enced by California freshness and French technique, while more than 100 color photographs celebrate her food, her regulars, and the soulful spirit of this special place.

“ The first time I tasted the yeasted cornmeal waffles at

Brown Sugar Kitchen, an evolved soul-food restaurant in

West Oakland, it was almost as if I had never tasted a

waffle at all. Because Brown Sugar’s waffles, so violently

risen that it is as if the batter had tried to lift itself from the

devilishly hot waffle iron toward the firmament, are so light

and so crisp that they are almost a different species,

waffles wrenched into the next state in their development.”

—Jonathan Gold for Gourmet

“ At Brown Sugar Kitchen, the restaurant that inspired other

chefs to take a chance on the neighborhood . . . as I finish

the best pork hash I’ve ever had, I feel comforted—like I’ve

finally found my home.”—from Novella Carpenter, Food + Wine

With a foreword by Pulitzer Prize–winning author (and Brown Sugar Kitchen regular) Michael Chabon

The Thing The BookA Monument to the Book as Object • By Jonn Herschend and Will Rogan

What exactly is a book? This wildly inventive and thought-provoking volume asks that question of more than 30 of today’s top creative visionaries, from Ed Ruscha to Miranda July, John Baldessari to Jonathan Lethem. Each traditional element of a book—from endpapers to footnotes—is assigned to a different artist or writer invited to use the space as a creative playground. The result is a collaborative group art project like no other. A ribbon bookmark by David Shrigley, page numbers by Tauba Auerbach, endnotes by Rick Moody—each contribution surprising and brilliant. This one-of-a-kind book will entrance anyone who appreci-ates art, literature, and the surprising possibilities that emerge when the two collide.

San Francisco–based artists Jonn Herschend and Will Rogan are

curators of THE THING Quarterly, an experimental periodical that

takes the form of a different physical object each issue.

More adventures await The Bear’s Song ’s Little Bear and Papa Bear. When the bears seek warmth from their chilly perch atop the Paris Opera House, Little Bear is mistaken for a toy bear and whisked away . . . to a tropical island!

Flora and the PenguinBy Molly Idle

Having mastered ballet in Flora and the Flamingo, Flora takes to the ice and forms an unexpected friendship with a penguin. Twirling, leaping, spinning, and gliding, on skates and flippers, the duo mirror each other’s graceful dance above and below the ice. But when Flora gives the penguin the cold shoulder, the pair must figure out a way to work together for uplifting results. Artist Molly Idle creates an innovative, wordless picture book with clever flaps that reveal Flora and the penguin coming together, spiraling apart, and coming back together as only true friends do.

Molly Idle began her career as an artist working for DreamWorks

Animation, and from there she leapt into the world of children’s

books. She lives in Tempe, Arizona.

The Memory of an ElephantAn Unforgettable Journey

By Sophie Strady • Illustrated by Jean-François Martin

Memory and meaning are at the heart of this oversized, content-rich picture book celebrating the life of Marcel, a soulful elephant.

Marcel is writing an encyclopedia, after all, and his entries are featured in full-page spreads packed with facts, elegantly situated alongside the story of his day and his life. Part story and part miscellany, this unforgettable book with dream-like illustrations will transfix both parents and children.

“ We need Lowriders in Space out there now. It’s cool and funny and original. AND it fills a huge need for books about Latino culture.”

—Jon Scieszka, first National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature,

founder of Guys Read, and bestselling and award-winning author

of the Caldecott Honor–winning The Stinky Cheese Man.

“ Only from the inventive mind of writer Cathy Camper could come such genius: A book for kids that has it all—kooky characters, cool cars and outer space, no less! Not to mention a high-interest graphic-novel form, full of hip and hop, sure to grab the wits of the most reluctant of readers. What more could boys ask? And Latino readers, at that. Camper’s style is smart and funny; she writes without a hint of shift or drift. And illustrator Raul Gonzalez gets it—‘just real nice.’”

Lowriders in SpaceBy Cathy Camper • Illustrated by Raul the Third

Lupe Impala, El Chavo Flapjack, and Elirio Malaria love working with cars. You name it, they can fix it. But the team’s favorite cars of all are lowriders—cars that hip and hop, dip and drop, go low and slow, bajito y suavecito. The stars align when a contest for the best car around offers a prize of a trunkful of cash—just what the team needs to open their own shop! ¡Ay chihuahua! What will it take to transform a junker into the best car in the universe? Striking, unparal-leled art from debut illustrator Raul the Third recalls ball-point-pen-and-Sharpie desk-drawn doodles, while the story is sketched with Spanish, inked with science facts, and colored with true friendship. With a glossary at the back to provide definitions for Spanish and science terms, this delightful book will educate and entertain in equal measure.

The Templeton Twins Make a SceneBook 2 • By Ellis Weiner • Illustrated by Jeremy Holmes

With its kid-perfect humor and dynamic illustrations, Book 1 of the hilarious Templeton Twins series left young readers clamoring for more. And now with Book 2 in paperback, readers will once again revel in drama, silliness, and sus-pense as the twins (and their ridiculous dog) plot to thwart the dastardly Dean brothers in order to save their father’s invention as well as their father (and the dog). Oh yes, there is sure to be another recipe. This time for guacamole. Or is it coleslaw?

Ellis Weiner was an editor for Spy magazine and National Lampoon.

The Templeton Twins series are his first books for children.

Jeremy Holmes’ debut book, There Was an Old Lady Who Swal-

lowed a Fly, received the prestigious Bologna-Ragazzi Award. This

The Clockwork ScarabA Stoker & Holmes Novel • By Colleen Gleason

Evaline Stoker and Mina Holmes never meant to get into the family business. But when you’re the sister of Bram and the niece of Sherlock, vampire hunting and mystery solving are in your blood, so to speak. And when two young society girls disappear—one dead, one missing—there’s no one more qualified to investigate. Now fierce Evaline and logical Mina must resolve their rivalry, navigate the advances of not just one but three mysterious gentlemen, and solve a murder with only one clue: a strange Egyptian scarab. The pressure is on and the stakes are high—if Stoker and Holmes don’t figure out why London’s finest sixteen-year-old women are in danger, they’ll become the next victims.

Colleen Gleason is the author of the Gardella Vampire Chronicles,

a paranormal romance series, and the Regency Draculia, a post-

apocalyptic romance series. Stoker & Holmes is her first series for

young adults. She lives in Michigan.

“ Gleason has vamped up the familiar world of Holmes and Watson. . . to paranormally exhilarating effect.”

The Spiritglass CharadeA Stoker & Holmes Novel • By Colleen Gleason

After the Affair of the Clockwork Scarab, Evaline Stoker and Mina Holmes are eager to help Princess Alix with a new case. Seventeen-year-old Willa Aston is obsessed with spiritual mediums, convinced she is speaking with her mother from beyond the grave. What seems like a case of spiritualist fraud quickly devolves into something far more menacing: someone is trying to make Willa “appear luna-tic,” using an innocent-looking spiritglass to control her. The list of clues piles up: an unexpected murder, a gang of pickpockets, and the return of vampires to London. But are these events connected? As Uncle Sherlock would say, “there are no coincidences.” It will take all of Mina’s wit and Evaline’s muscle to keep London’s sinister under-ground at bay.

“ I’d

never

been

to

a séance

before,

but I knew what to expect. The six of us gathered around a small circular table in a stuffy room with closed and curtained windows. The only light was a group of three small candles in wide, squat holders at the center of the table. They surrounded the oracle—no, spiritglass. The surface was bare and there were no furnishings other than walls of bookshelves. Long shadows danced across the table and ceiling, and the corners of the room were dark and gloomy. Could there be any more perfect place for a séance.”

—Miss Stoker

Praise for The Clockwork Scarab:

“ This book has it all. . . the vivid setting and the finely drawn, compelling heroines make this a fine choice for readers who like their stories with steampunk spice and smart, strong women.” —School Library Journal

“ The mishmash of popular tropes (steam-punk! vampires! Sherlock Holmes!) will bring readers in, but it’s the friendship between the two girls that will keep them.”

“We must hurry and get back to the road of yellow brick before dark,” he said; and the Scarecrow agreed with him. So they kept walking until Dorothy could stand no longer. Her eyes closed in spite of herself and she forgot where she was and fell among the poppies, fast asleep.

“What shall we do?” asked the Tin Woodman.“If we leave her here she will die,” said the Lion. “The smell of the flowers

is killing us all. I myself can scarcely keep my eyes open, and the dog is asleep already.”It was true; Toto had fallen down beside his little mistress. But the Scarecrow

and the Tin Woodman, not being made of flesh, were not troubled by the scent of the flowers.

“Run fast,” said the Scarecrow to the Lion, “and get out of this deadly flower bed as soon as you can. We will bring the little girl with us, but if you should fall asleep you are too big to be carried.”

So the Lion aroused himself and bounded forward as fast as he could go. In a moment he was out of sight.

“Let us make a chair with our hands and carry her,” said the Scarecrow. So they picked up Toto and put the dog in Dorothy’s lap, and then they made a chair with their hands for the seat and their arms for the arms and carried the sleeping girl between them through the flowers.

On and on they walked, and it seemed that the great carpet of deadly flowers that surrounded them would never end. They followed the bend of the river, and at last came upon their friend the Lion, lying fast asleep among the poppies. The flowers had been too strong for the huge beast and he had given up at last, and fallen only a short distance from the end of the poppy bed, where the sweet grass spread in beautiful green fields before them.

“We can do nothing for him,” said the Tin Woodman, sadly; “for he is much too heavy to lift. We must leave him here to sleep on forever, and perhaps he will dream that he has found courage at last.”

“I’m sorry,” said the Scarecrow. “The Lion was a very good comrade for one so cowardly. But let us go on.”

They carried the sleeping girl to a pretty spot beside the river, far enough from the poppy field to prevent her breathing any more of the poison of the flowers, and here they laid her gently on the soft grass and waited for the fresh breeze to waken her.

I stuck it on the wall by the lockers when no one was looking. I couldn’t help it. I thought people would laugh. People did laugh. A lot. Until Mrs. Smithson yanked it down. She was not laughing.

Rhyme SchemerBy K. A. Holt

Kevin has a bad attitude. He’s the one who laughs when you trip and fall. In fact, he may have been the one who tripped you in the first place. He has a real knack for rub-bing people the wrong way—and he’s even figured out a secret way to do it with poems. But what happens when the tables are turned and he is the one getting picked on? Rhyme Schemer is a touching and hilarious middle-grade novel in verse about one seventh grader’s journey from bully-er to bully-ee, as he learns about friendship, family, and the influence that words can have on people’s lives.

K. A. Holt has written three books for children. She lives with her

family in Austin, Texas, and is active within the vibrant Texas

writing community.

A is for assignment.I’m excited. Miss Bamford is my English teacher, and

she is the best English teacher in the world.Wait. Wrong way. Go back. I haven’t personally expe-

rienced every teacher in the world (obviously). I believe in precision, so I must refine my statement. It is more accurate to say that she’s the best teacher as far as I’m concerned.

Miss Bamford is a small woman and she is between thirty and sixty years of age. I refuse to guess at ages. I asked her once, in the interest of accuracy, and she wouldn’t tell me. She wears long and shapeless dresses, so it’s difficult to tell what her body is like. But she is probably thin.

The one unmistakable thing about Miss Bamford is her lazy eye. It’s her right one, and it rolls around like it’s skating on something slippery. This lack of control dis-turbs many students in my class. Sometimes she shouts at a student and, given her lazy eye, it’s difficult to tell who she is yelling at. One eye dips and bobs like a maniac and the other glares at a nonspecific location.

The Categorical Universe of Candice PheeBy Barry Jonsberg

Candice Phee isn’t a typical twelve-year-old girl. She has more than her fair share of quirks, but she also has the very best of intentions and an unwavering determination to make sure everyone around her is happy—which is no easy feat when dealing with a pet fish with an identity crisis, a friend who believes he came from another dimension, an age-old family feud, and a sick mom. But she is on a mission. Her methods might be unique, but Candice will do whatever it takes to restore order to her world and make sure everyone is absolutely, categorically happy again.

Barry Jonsberg is a multiple award–winning writer of young adult

and middle-grade novels. He lives and teaches in Darwin, Australia.

Hilariously honest and wonderfully touching, this novel roots for the underdog and celebrates the oddball in each of us.

Round Is a MooncakeBy Roseanne Thong • Illustrated by Grace Lin

A little girl’s urban neighborhood becomes a discovery ground for all things round, square, and rectangular in this lyrical picture book. Most items are Asian in origin, others universal: round rice bowls and a found pebble, square dim sum and the boxes that the pizzas come in, rectangular Chinese lace and a very special pencil case. Bright, whim-sical art accompanies the narrative rhyme, and a short glossary adds cultural significance to the objects featured in the book. Perfect for read-alouds or one-on-one sharing.

a n e s s e n t i a l p h r a s e b o o k f o r t h e w o r l d t r av e l e r , How to Swear Around the World features dozens of favorite curses, insults, and sayings from all over the globe. Get rid of a pesky hanger-on in Brazil by telling him to dig for potatoes—vai ceifar batatas. To express disgust toward your brown-nosing German friend, accuse him of being a bicycle-rider—radfahrer, or tell someone off in Laos by letting him know you think his mother enjoys keeping intimate company with dogs—Ma see mea mung! Make new friends and enemies abroad with this handy guide filled with fighting words, scatological expressions, dozens of ways to insult someone’s mother, and many other suitably offensive phrases.

Jason Sacher is a writer and illustrator living in the wilds of southern Maine. He has long been an admirer of curse words and their many uses, although he is troubled by the increasing frequency with which those words are vehemently hurled at him by friends, acquaintances, and members of his household. He figures he must just have one of those faces. You can read Jason’s comics at www.picnicspirit.com.

THE LITTLE PARIS KITCHEN$35.00 HC • 978-1-4521-1343-2

La joie de vivre is best experienced

by sharing a home-cooked meal. And despite the

stereotype, you don’t have to be a chef to experience

la joie of French cuisine.

The Little Paris Kitchen is a modern approach to

Cordon Bleu cookery. With only two gas rings and a

mini oven in her petit cuisine, Rachel serves up fresh

and accessible makeovers of dishes such as boeuf

bourguignon and steak frites.

Discover a new spin on much-loved classics such

as coq au vin as skewers, croque madames baked in

muffin tins, and a startling crème brûlée spiked with

the beguiling twist of Indonesian long pepper. Join

Rachel as she lives out the edible adventure that is

la vie parisienne: picnicking along the Seine, chatting

up her local baker or butcher, or perched at a small

café table with an aperitif after a day of shopping at

open-air markets and tiny spice, tea, and pastry shops.

With The Little Paris Kitchen, you will learn to take

as much pleasure in preparing the food as in eating

it. Fresh ingredients and simple techniques celebrate

France’s rich culinary culture, and Rachel shows that

its flavors are within everyone’s reach, no matter

where you are in the world, or how big—or small—

your kitchen.

Rachel Khoo is a London fashion publicist

turned Paris-based food creative. She came to

France for pâtisserie and, after earning her degree at

Le Cordon Bleu, started baking sweet treats for the

culinary bookstore and tea salon La Cocotte.

She now travels the world working on a variety of

projects, holding workshops and cooking for every-

thing from huge client events to more intimate pop-

up restaurants.

120 Simple But Classic French Recipes

“You may think French cuisine is overlooked these days, stereotyped

with the stuffy image of an old-fashioned chef laboring over a terribly complicated dish, finished with a ton of butter. ‘Mais non!’ I say. French flavors and techniques needn’t be out

of reach of the everyday home cook.

“Living in Paris, I eat and cook everything from simple weekday suppers to big gourmet dinners. And just because they use fancy words like jus or blanchir

doesn’t mean you have to have a Michelin-starred kitchen to cook great French food. I certainly don’t and I’ve managed to cook up everything from feasts for

six to girlie tea parties for eight to romantic three-course dinners for two. Join me on an exciting edible French adventure.

“Diane Morgan has done the impossible. She has transformed the subject of root vegetables into an extraordinary reference book and brought them deliciously to life with irresistible recipes. This is a must for any cook who wants to expand their culinary horizons and navigate the fascinating world of root vegetables with confidence.” —GRACE YOUNG, author of Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge

“Diane Morgan’s latest book illuminates the culinary underworld in the most marvel-ous way, allowing roots, rhizomes, tubers, and corms to bask in the limelight. Diane’s kitchen prowess elevates lowly root vegetables to (well-deserved) exalted menu status. While lotus root, tubers, and yams are staples in my own Japanese kitchen, mostly for savory dishes, thanks to Diane, I discovered the sweet wonders of Lotus Root Upside-Down Cake and the piquant pleasures of purple potatoes with smoked trout. Kansha: appreciation, in equal measure for nature’s hidden underground treasures... and for Diane’s insatiable curiosity and literary diligence that created this tasty tribute to the edible underworld.”—ELIZABETH ANDOH, author of KIBŌ (“Brimming with Hope”): Recipes & Stories from Japan’s Tohoku

“Diane throws open the doors of the root cellar and shines a strong beam of light on this subterranean wonderland. From burdock and beets to rutabagas and radishes (and beyond), she works through this often overlooked realm with inspired recipes and illuminating reference material. The word that keeps coming to mind: finally!— a book that helps me understand the real potential of these culinary outliers.”—HEIDI SWANSON, author of Super Natural Every Day and 101Cookbooks.com

For anyone who ever picked up a strangely shaped, gnarly looking vegetable at the farmers’ market (in the author’s case, burdock root) and said “what’s this?” Roots is your go-to guide to the veggies found underground.

This comprehensive cookbook reveals the underworld of roots, from the familiar (beets, carrots, potatoes) to the unfamiliar ( jicama, salsify, yuca) to the practically unheard of (cassava, galangal, crosne). Discover the fascinating history and lore of each one, their nutritional content, how to buy and store them, and—the best part—more than 225 recipes that bring out their best flavors.

Start simply with easy-to-prepare Ginger Rhubarb Chutney. Save it in pretty glass containers and this tangy-spicy sauce makes a great gift (or eat it yourself straight from the jar!). Explore more unusual varieties like burdock, a long, thin root with a mild flavor and pleasing crunch that makes it ideal for pickling and stir-fries. Didn’t know turmeric was a root? Used mostly in Asian cooking, turmeric is best known for its beautiful golden color and its welcome presence in dishes like Chiang Mai Curry Noodles. And don’t forget the well-loved stand-bys like potatoes and carrots that make flavorful hearty stews and quick weeknight meals.

Whether you bring home your new-found roots from the grocery store or your local famers’ market, these delicious, nutritious, and easy-on–the-wallet veggies will add a new level of taste and sophistication to your everyday cooking.
