    Discover a sparkling region in Southern Italy which offers the most tantalizing food, through 75 authentic recipes, cooked with care and attention using the best ingredients.
    
    Italian food reflects culture. In Italy cooking is the product of geography, history, and religion. 'Italian cooking' is really a patchwork of local and regional cuisines, all fiercely claiming to be the best in the country. Ursula Ferrigno's own family come from the south of Italy, and just south of Naples is the Amalfi Coast. It is widely considered to be one of Italy's most magical locations: breath-taking (literally) winding cliff-top roads, pastel-coloured houses tumbling down towards the sea, flower-framed terraces and trees heavy with the world's most coveted lemons at every turn. Discover the delicious food the region has to offer. Vegetable dishes take centre stage and both meat and fish are eaten and often combined. In this seductive book you'll find 75 recipes to enjoy, from simple antipasti and ministre (soups) to pane (bread) and pizza, risotto, pollame and carne (fish and meat), and the all-important contorni (vegetable), alongside essays on the food culture and traditions of the area and beautiful scenic photography.

    Set in the urban pastoral of an East London postcode, Feral Borough asks what it means to call a place home, and how best to share that home with its non-human inhabitants. Meryl Pugh reimagines the wild as 'feral', recording the fauna and flora of Leytonstone in prose as incisive as it is lyrical. Here, on the edge of the city, red kite and parakeets thrive alongside bluebell and yarrow, a muntjac deer is glimpsed in the undergrowth, and an escaped boa constrictor appears on the High Road. In this subtle, captivating book – part herbarium, part bestiary and part memoir – Pugh explores the effects of loss, and lockdown, on human well-being, conjuring the local urban environment as a site for healing and connection.
    'A subtle, heartfelt and affecting book about home, the city and the self -- Pugh reminds us that nowhere, however urban, is without nature; that wherever we go, the intricate web of life continues to shape and change us.' Rebecca Tamás

    Lots of people take a walk to clear their heads, but have you ever walked over six hundred miles to do it?On a misty, gray morning in the summer of 2018, Gordon Bernhardt set out from a small town in the French Pyrenees to walk the ancient pilgrim route of Camino de Santiago, seeking clarity for his business, his relationships, and his priorities in life. The lessons he learned as a peregrino—a pilgrim—ranged from insights on financial advising and investing to the importance of noticing the tiniest details of each day: like the ant trails winding across the path at his feet or the “smiling sunflower” that lightened his steps in the middle of a hot summer day.An investing book like no other, Buen Camino: What a Hike through Spain Taught Me about Investing and Life will remind you that although we’re all walking a different path, we’re all headed for a common destination.

    A story of love, marriage, and flowers from beloved writer and gardening enthusiast Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn It begins with an ending. Six months before they were to be married, Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn’s fiancée broke off their engagement, leaving her stunned and reeling. Looking for stability — and health insurance — she married a friend instead. Then, while sharing a home and tending to a garden together, the marriage of convenience turned into a marriage of love. In science, art, and mythology, we cannot help but to see flowers as metaphors for the fleeting nature of youth, vitality, and love. While it’s easy to casually admire something beautiful, it requires a closer look to appreciate the effort that produces that beauty. In I Have This Thing For Flowers, Sawchyn does just that, likening the many flowers she has grown in her garden to a range of relationships and activities from motherhood to ex-boyfriends to Greek mythology.  Cataloguing all of the great romances of her life like an herbarium of flowers preserved from the garden, Sawchyn examines the kinds of love that can't be explained.

    KILL BILL: VOLUME 2 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Kill Bill: Vol. 2 is a 2004 martial arts film directed by Quentin Tarantino, and the second part of a two-film revenge saga. The story follows Beatrix Kiddo, also known as The Bride, who continues her quest to avenge the brutal betrayal by her former comrades in the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. As she hunts down those responsible for the massacre at her wedding, the film explores themes of vengeance, betrayal, and redemption, blending western, samurai, and kung fu genres. Tarantino's signature style includes sharp dialogue, dynamic action sequences, and an exploration of complex relationships. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    "The brothel scene where the Bride meets Esteban Vallejo (played by Michael Parks) was the last scene filmed. It was shot at a real Mexican brothel, with the female extras being actual prostitutes who worked there." 
      
    "Robert Rodriguez composed the film's score for just one dollar. In return, Tarantino agreed to direct a segment of Rodriguez's Sin City (2005) for the same fee." 
      
    "Pai Mei’s three-inch punch is a reference to Bruce Lee’s famous three-inch knockout punch." 
      
    "After the credits, an alternate take shows the Bride ripping out one of the Crazy 88’s eyes."
