The Wine List Stories and Tasting Notes behind the World's Most Remarkable Bottles Grant Reynolds

View on Edelweiss

9781454947509 Hardcover $28.00 208 Pages 7¼ x 8¾ All In Color Rights: World Pub Date: 11/23/23

A refreshing exploration of the relationship between culture, politics, history, and wine. Beyond geography and weather, wine reflects a specific time: technology, popular culture, stories, status, influencers, packaging, marketing, and creative trends all combine to contribute to how “great” a wine is considered. This book considers the sociology and the chemistry of wine. It covers 75 years that are remarkable in the history of wine, including stories that involve a rare 1920s Clos des Ducs found behind a wall built to hide assets from the Nazis and the genesis of Robert Mondavi as a "brand." Interstitial sidebars and interviews and contributed essays break up these individual entries, and funky, photographic-driven collages decorate the pages. Most wine books out there are either entry-level or at a 400-level, without much in between for audiences. This book will bridge that gap, looking at the topic through a new lens. It will appeal not only to wine lovers, but to anyone interested in learning about art and culture.

KEY SELLING POINTS ·EXPERT AUTHOR: Grant Reynolds is an expert sommelier. He cut his teeth at Noma and studied under the eminent Bobby Stuckey at Frasca.

A Memoir Valerie Bauman

View on Edelweiss

An investigative memoir about the grit, resourcefulness, and bravery it takes to make a modern family. Inconceivable combines memoir and investigative reporting to reveal an underground community of sperm donors and recipients who have chosen to circumvent traditional fertility avenues and meet up on their own terms. As an active participant in this community, Valerie Bauman uses her own story as a lens into this movement of people attempting to dodge the costly and often discriminatory world of sperm banks and fertility clinics. Unexpected is a window into the unfair legal, ﬁnancial, and medical entanglements that compel many single women and LGBTQ+ couples to take their fertility into their own hands. KEY SELLING POINTS ·PREVALENT ISSUES: Now more than ever, people are speaking out openly about what it means to have children and build unconventional families, and reproductive issues are at the forefront of politics and culture. ·MEETS A NEED: Currently, few books on the market delve speciﬁcally into the subject of motherhood by choice. What is out there is relatively old (think 1990s and 2000s), often self-published, or are guides on single motherhood after a child is born. This book is a modern look at becoming pregnant that focuses on the various reasons for circumventing the conventional fertility industry.

Valerie Bauman is an award-winning journalist with nearly two decades of experience. She is currently an investigative reporter at Newsweek. Previously, she was a senior investigative reporter and senior legal reporter at Bloomberg Law, where she covered the pharmaceutical litigation beat. Bauman has also worked at Newsday and The Associated Press.

see "dark nights of the soul" not as hardships without purpose, but rather as heroic initiations that can o er irreplaceable opportunities for self-discovery and enlightenment.

Every one of us experiences periods of pain and loss in our life—dark nights of the soul. This is a groundless territory where one feels directionless and devoid of tools, with no sense of how to take the next step. In ancient times, elders guided their communities through life’s initiations and challenges, paths we must all take to transform and grow. In Walking through Darkness, legendary shamanic experts Sandra Ingerman and Llyn Roberts help us forge a pathway through the dark—as we embrace nature as our guide and healer. Sandra and Llyn share metaphorical stories that engage animals, plants, trees, and other aspects of nature. Through the feminine process of circular joint storytelling, they weave the rich tales of their own experiences alongside wisdom that they have gathered for years from their own studies, as well as from healers around the globe. Through teachings from the land, the sky, the sea, and the spiritual world, this sensitive and empowering guide opens us to our spiritual light so that we can face our greatest challenges with courage and love—no matter what they are. KEY SELLING POINT ·SHAMANISM IS TRENDING: Rediscovery of indigenous wisdom and interest in both contemporary and ancient shamans alike has grown in recent years.

Sandra Ingerman is the author of 12 books, including How to Heal Toxic Thoughts, and has been teaching shamanism for close to 40 years.

Llyn Roberts teaches workshops on healing and shamanism around the world.

The Art of Gothic Living Dark Decor for the Modern Macabre Paul Gambino

View on Edelweiss

9781454951094 Hardcover $28.00 224 Pages 7x9 180 Color Photos Rights: World Pub Date: 7/16/24

A gorgeously photographed guide to spooky homes, with innovative details and fascinating collections to inspire anyone who would like to add a touch of morbidity to their living space. From a spirit-haunted church in Western Ohio to an ancient Italian castle, from a freakish funhouse on the Jersey shore to a Connecticut cottage with a storybook façade that belies its spine-tingling contents: this collection of aspirational interiors will appeal to anyone who wishes to live in the luxury of Gothic darkness without sacrificing even an ounce of style. The Art of Gothic Living profiles 15 homes and their owners, chronicling their journeys to creating living spaces that reflect a philosophy steeped in the tenets of Gothic subculture--individuality, creativity, and a fascination with life's shadow side. The ways in which this manifests in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, and living rooms is as diverse as the homeowners in author Paul Gambino's intriguing book. How does one showcase a collection of medical models and religious iconography in a way that emphasizes its beauty (and allows space for entertaining)? How can a homeowner make the ghosts that linger in the halls a feature, not a bug? This engaging, beautifully designed treasure trove of dark delights answers plenty of the most practical questions while inspiring readers to new heights of decorative expression as they envision a Gothic home for themselves, wherever they may reside. KEY SELLING POINTS ·A GOTH RESURGENCE: In fashion, in music, and especially in home decor, the spooky and dark is having a moment. ·EYE-CATCHING PACKAGE: Striking photographs detail a collection of o beat and inspiring homes, interiors, and details from the fascinating collections showcased in each room.

Paul Gambino has been an avid collector of the macabre for over 20 years, and owns an extensive collection of nineteenth-century memorial photographs. His two decades of collecting have gained him access to some of the world's most elite collectors of the macabre. He is the author of Morbid Curiosities, Skulls, and Killer Collections.

Each game in A Hot Minute gives you fresh, fleeting fun to take your pleasure from zero to sixty as fast as possible. The object of the game is to try as many one-minute activities as you can, each leading you and your partner closer to desire. Find a card you don’t like? That’s fine, you’re allowed to skip it—but then your partner gets two minutes when it’s their turn. (Alternative rule: if you can successfully complete the challenge in under a minute, you get to take another turn. If you fail or exceed the timer, then your partner takes over.)
