198,95 kr. "A thrilling mix of French noir and American Western, this novel charts a family's struggle for freedom and justice in a hostile mountain community. In Gour Noir, an isolated valley cut off from the rest of the world, there live four siblings. Three brothers and one sister, who are united by an unfailing bond: Marc, who constantly reads in secret, in defiance of his father's wishes; Matthieu, who can hear trees thinking; Mabel, a wondrously savage and graceful beauty; and Luc, the tragic child, the idiot, undoubtedly the wisest of them all, who can speak to frogs, deer, and birds, and dreams of one day becoming one of them. Like their father and grandfather before them, they all work for Joyce the Tyrant, the adventurer, the cold-blooded beast of the Quarries and the Dam. Winner of the Prix Jean Giono, Wind Drinkers is a masterful, parable-like novel about the power of nature and the promise of rebellion"--

208,95 kr. The editorial stance of this book is that mysticism and science offer a way forward here, but only if they abandon the idol of a single logical synthesis and acknowledge the diversity of different ways of knowing. The contributors from disciplines as diverse as music, psychology, mathematics and religion, build a vision that honours diversity while pointing to an implicit unity.

114,95 kr. This book collects the posts of a blog that Chris Clarke maintained from summer 2016 until his death in March 2019, in which he set out to explore the themes of 'Wisdom' and 'Isness'. What he meant by 'isness' is the theme that is expanded throughout the book, but a thing's isness is the essence of what it is for itself.As his health failed, what became very profound about these reflections is the way he reflected on each moment and experience for itself, searching deeply for the isness of each moment with no quest for a connecting narrative.

- The World: OR HOW A VERY SOBER, MOSTLY VEGAN, SPINSTER CHEF WANDERED A WELCOMING WORLD FOR A YEAR
423,95 kr. Have you thought about chucking it all and heading out there? Here are the stories, the recipes and the pictures of my trip around the world. Food is personal. So let's do just that, by sharing the tale of my almost year-long, journey. Stories of and recipes from the places I explored and the things I learned, inward and outward, along the way. How I sold all that I had, wandered, got lost, found my way, discovered, ate, cooked and shared marvelous and delicious food. Born and raised a tiny village in upstate New York, I am a culinary veteran with over 30 years of experience working in restaurants, catering, in the natural foods industry, and as a culinary educator. Now, I find myself to be a 49-year old, dedicated devourer who prefers street food to a typical white linen fine dining experience. I was a winner of "Denver's Best Home Chef" contest, appeared as a guest chef on several morning programs and once competed on an obscure Food Network trivia game show, where I came in 2nd and won a year's supply of Jordan Almonds and Junior Mints. And now I have a podcast, "Something About Food?" so that I can carry on that world of food conversation with diverse guests. Noodles, dumplings, lentil dishes, and far too many pan au chocolats went into this chef's wander. I visited 18 countries, met 3 donkeys, lost my favorite pair of plaid Chuck Taylors in Marrakech, and was gratified to be able to experience the world, and see it as the messed up, wonderful, and joyful home it is. I was a solo woman abroad, traveling in foreign lands, but I found myself at home almost everywhere I wandered.
