The first novel in an eerie, darkly creative, and romantic new gothic fantasy duology from Maxym M. Martineau, for readers of Sarah J. Maas and Rachel Gillig.Edira Brillwyn is a threadmender. She holds a rare, lifesaving power that can cure disease and heal injuries in the blink of an eye. But magic always comes with a cost, and saving anyone sacrifices a sliver of her own life. She's always kept her abilities hidden...until the powerful Fernglove family discovers her secret.The Ferngloves are charming and beautiful, possess powerful magic, and don't take no for an answer-especially Orin, the head of these ruling elites. When Edira's brothers unexpectedly contract blight-an incurable virus killing people throughout the town, and an illness too strong for her to heal them both-Orin offers to help. Together at his estate they'll research a cure while Orin slows their sickness and Edira hones her magic. His kindness and honesty surprises Edira, as does her undeniable attraction to him.But the other Ferngloves are suspicious of her power and may be more dangerous than the ever-present disease. The longer Edira stays within the confines of the Manor, the more the family's pristine exterior begins to crack-until Edira discovers a terrifying secret and must choose who she can save and at what cost...

Discover the wonderfully eerie supernatural beings of Japanese lore in this magnificent hardcover edition which features an elegant silk coating as well as coloured edges and closing straps. Yo¯kai ghosts are a significant aspect of Japanese culture. In turns terrifying, playful and mischievous, they can take the form of malevolent spirits, seeking a place in the afterlife, or shapeshifters tricking humans with wisdom and sometimes cruelty.This unique book includes 150 striking images by Hokusai, Hiroshige, Utamaro and others, that capture the essence of yo¯kai folklore with stunning detail and evocative imagery. Filled with colored reproductions, each of the book’s chapters focuses on a specific spirit or type. There’s the specter of Oiwa, her face distorted by poison, as depicted by Hokusai; Toyohara Kunichika’s haunting interpretation of Okiku, a tragic ghost with a tale of betrayal and revenge; and Yoshitoshi’s dramatic image of a samurai bravely confronting a hideous ghost.Throughout the book, readers will discover how the intricate details of woodblock prints allowed artists to exaggerate features and create dramatic effects that enhanced the portrayal of yo¯kai. These prints also reveal aspects of daily life, folklore, and spiritual beliefs of the period, offering a window into Japan’s history and pointing to the origins of manga, horror films, and literature. Fans of Japanese folklore, supernatural art, and anime enthusiasts alike will delight in this beautiful edition that features a special Japanese binding, coloured edges and closing straps.

Scriabin's early Etudes op. 8 are at the heart of virtuoso piano repertoire, their methodical and pedagogical intent clearly visible. However, they are also 12 character pieces, revealing Scriabin's whole creative universe from the dreamy and poetic to the powerful and passionate. The composer did not, however, make things easy for Belaieff, his publisher: final delivery of the long-promised Etudes (for which he had received an advance) was protracted because Scriabin was continually making revisions. "You are annoyed with me - completely justifiably, although I deserve some leniency as I am, in the truest sense of the word, working on them the whole day through". His efforts were worth it! For Henle's Urtext edition, Scriabin researcher Valentina Rubcova draws upon the composer's own second revised version of the first printing, making detailed comparison with the surviving autograph. World-renowned pianist Boris Giltburg provides the fingering.

An irreverent, accessible, essential guide to the science of flavor and how to use it in your own kitchen, from the food scientist-confidante of some of the world’s best chefs, Arielle Johnson, with more than 75 recipes—plus a foreword by René Redzepi. "Arielle changed the way that I think about flavor, and in these pages, she will do the same for you” (René Redzepi, chef of Noma). Meet Arielle Johnson—she’s a flavor scientist (she loves flavor so much, she got a Ph.D.in the subject). She spends most of her time helping chefs better understand what’s going on beneath the hood of flavor and make delicious new foods. Now, with Flavorama, she shares this invaluable knowledge with home cooks everywhere.Mixing equal parts fun and braininess, Arielle dives into how chemistry, sensation, and craft unite to create flavor, distilling what flavor really is (molecules!) and how to get it to work for you (spotting patterns, breaking rules) in an easy-to-digest handbook. You don’t need a lab or a professional kitchen—or even a background in science—to get something out of the science of flavor. With Flavorama, you’ll be able to easily finesse flavor while cooking to give any dish a little oomph, easily swap out an ingredient for one you have on hand, use a recipe or technique to improvise something new, or boldly replicate a flavor.Out of basil for pesto? Pivot and use mint, shiso, or tarragon—all are members of the same "herbal-aromatic” flavor family—for a new-but-somehow-familiar herb sauce. Or add a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkling of flaky salt to chocolate ice cream— a simple hack for deliciously complex flavor. Included are 99 recipes so you can hit the ground running with your new science-of-flavor knowledge: An Algorithm for a Minimalist but Excellent Dressing for LettuceUmami-Boosted Cacio e PepeChilled Soba Noodles with GrapefruitThe Meatiest Slow-Cooked MeatPanela-Coconut Iced CoffeePineapple Caramel SauceBurnt Scallion ButterUnder-appreciated–Spice Pumpkin PieCook with the creativity, confidence, and flexibility of a world-class chef and learn how to unlock the flavor potential of your ingredients, create your own dishes, make your own bitters, ferment your own miso, and much, much more.Charming illustrations and diagrams drawn by Arielle herself accompany this indispensable guidebook to flavor town.
