Synopsis

In 'Orchids' by James O'Brien, readers are immersed in a world of vivid imagery and lyrical prose as they explore the delicate beauty of orchids and the complexities of human emotion. Through a series of interconnected stories, O'Brien expertly weaves together themes of love, loss, and resilience, inviting readers to reflect on the fragility and resilience of life itself. Drawing on elements of magical realism, O'Brien transports readers to a dreamlike landscape where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur, creating a sense of wonder and enchantment. The book's poetic language and rich symbolism elevate the reader's understanding of the natural world and the human experience, making 'Orchids' a truly captivating read. James O'Brien's deep connection to nature and his keen insight into the human condition shine through in 'Orchids'. As a botanist and a poet, O'Brien brings a unique perspective to the exploration of orchids, infusing his writing with passion and knowledge. His love for these exquisite flowers shines through in every page, inviting readers to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the natural world. I highly recommend 'Orchids' to readers who appreciate poetic writing, lyrical storytelling, and thought-provoking themes. O'Brien's masterful blend of science and artistry creates a mesmerizing reading experience that will linger in the minds of readers long after they have finished the book.

    Creative recipes and celebrations of seasonal bounties—in the garden, in the kitchen, and on the canvas.  
     
    Artist Claude Monet took inspiration from his gardens and the lily ponds at Giverny. Van Gogh, Manet, Matisse, and Cezanne created still life masterpieces of fruit and flowers. Similarly, cooks from Julia Child and Alice Waters to Patricia Wells and Jamie Oliver have taken culinary inspiration from homegrown or fresh local produce.  
     
    Now artist Maryjo Koch explores this centuries-old connection in a new cookbook inspired by her studio garden. The garden not only provides the artistic subjects she and her students paint, but also serves as the culinary toolbox for the delectable and visual feasts she prepares for her family, guests, and painting classes throughout the year.  
     
    Artists, cooks, and gardeners alike will find tips, recipes, and painting projects centered on seasonal food pairings. For example, the winter garden focuses on soups with offerings like Minestrone with Crumbled Bacon and Butternut Squash-Apple Soup. Springtime brings culinary attention to leafy greens such as Flower Petal Salad and Spring Asparagus Frittata with Peas and Peppers. As the seasons’ bounty progresses, the painting subjects and menus change as well, invented with whatever is freshest and most beautiful in the garden. Whether you find yourself more at home with an artist’s brush, a cook’s wooden spoon, or a gardener’s spade, you’ll find inspiration inside this lavish cookbook.
