A richly illustrated examination of food in the Bible, concentrating on the social aspects of eating.
Ruth Simon is beautiful, smart, talented, and always hungry. As a teenager, she starved herself almost to death, and though outwardly healed, inwardly she remains dangerously obsessed with food. For Joseph Zimmerman, Ruth's tormented relationship with eating is a source of deep distress and erotic fascination. Driven by his love for Ruth, and haunted by his own secrets, Joseph sets out to unravel the mystery of hunger and denial. This gripping debut novel is a powerful exploration of appetite, love, and desire.
SHE HAD TO PUT UP WITH HIM—HE PROVIDED THE ONLY SOLUTION Considering she didn’t like him very much, Doctor Tane van Diederijk seemed to pop up in Euphemia’s life quite a lot. But beggars couldn’t be choosers. Euphemia had been left with debts to pay and a big house she couldn’t afford to keep. Tane offered the only workable solution to her problems—he would become Euphemia’s tenant. However difficult it might be, Euphemia was going to have to grit her teeth and bear it. After all, Tane might grow on her…in time.
A further volume in this series, this year discussing not so much food or its preparation as its portrayal in any number of art forms such as popular music, crime novels, film, theatre, literature, and fine art. There are also some papers which concentrate on the art of food, or art relating to food: an instance is the art of tissue-paper orange wrappers (a recondite but riveting item). My impression, when this subject was first mooted, was that all contributions would revolve around paintings and high arts. I was mistaken, there is a remarkable spread: the arrangement of 18th-century desserts; cookery and the Cuban Santeria religion; drink in 19th-century English fiction; food in film noir; the cook as artist in 18th-century England; architectural food design in France and Italy; popcorn poetry; food and eating in Bronte novels; and much more. These volumes are sometimes indigestible fricassees if swallowed at once, but think of them as platters of oysters - each may contain a pearl. By the finish a bracelet at least, perhaps a necklace, is the consequence.
In-depth survey looks at what people of the Bible ate, hunted, caught, and more.
Betty Fussell is an inspiring badass. She's not just the award–winning author of numerous books ranging from biography and memoir to cookbooks and food history; not just a winner of the James Beard Foundation's Journalism Award who was inducted into their "Who's Who of American Food and Beverage" in 2009; and not just an extraordinary person whose fifty years' worth of essays on food, travel, and the arts have appeared in scholarly journals, popular magazines and newspapers as varied as The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Los Angeles Times, Saveur, and Vogue. This is a woman who at eighty–two years old (and despite being half–blind) went deer hunting for the very first time in the Montana foothills with her son, Sam (as described in her 2010 essay for the New York Times Magazine.) She got her deer. This is a woman who declared in a 2005 essay for Vogue that she had to teach herself Latin and German from scratch (on top of teaching herself how to cook) as a young twenty–one year old bride, because "housewifery wasn't enough." Indeed, for Fussell one subject is never enough. Counterpoint is thrilled to be publishing this selected anthology of her diverse essays.
Even half a world apart, they are destined to be together . . .

Though Daisy and Jackie are destined never to marry, their love affair continues.

And as time goes on, their various children start new lives thousands of miles away from their East-End roots . . . ****************** What readers are saying about EVE'S APPLES 'Could not put this book down' - 5 STARS 'Saga at its best' - 5 STARS 'A fantastic storyline' - 5 STARS 'I enjoyed it so much' - 5 STARS 'This really drew me in, I loved the whole story' - 5 STARS
