Hot Thai Kitchen
The definitive Thai cookbook from a YouTube star! Growing up in Thailand, Pailin Chongchitnant spent her childhood with the kitchen as her playground.

Combining her love of teaching with her devotion to Thai food, Pailin immediately connected with thousands of fans who wanted a friend and educator. In this much...
You Can't Catch Death
Ianthe Brautigan was nine years old when her father, the Californian beat writer Richard Brautigan, first told her he wanted to commit suicide. She was twenty-five years old when he finally realised his death wish, taking his own life with a shotgun. This memoir is Ianthe's attempt to make sense of her famous father's suicide, to come to terms with it, and to try and paint a picture of the man she knew. What emerges is a moving account of a complex, witty, caring man who was torn apart by internal demons, and of a writer who became a hero of the 50s and 60s counter-culture but had to endure watching his fame and work fade away into relative obscurity. Written with a clarity of recall, an understated wit, and with real control and pace, You Can't Catch Death is a fascinating insight into the man behind the legend, and of the daughter he left behind.

Dark Imaginings
"More than forty years ago, J. R. R. Tolkien, in his essay 'On Fairy Stories,' stated the case for the vital role of fantasy in offering us escape from the drabness of the 'real world.' Since then, his words have been borne out by the tremendous popularity and increasing influence of this fascinating genre. 'Dark Imaginings' is both an eloquent demonstration of the power of fantasy and a pioneering illumination of the Gothic style. In these sixteen tales by some of the greatest masters of fantasy fiction--some already acknowledged classics, others remarkable new discoveries--the shadowy hues of the Gothic are blended with the vivid shades of the fantastic to produce effects as uncanny and eerie as any in the realm of letters. Whether the reader is transported into the self-contained worlds of wonder, sent back into the darkest reaches of time, or faced with nightmare horror amid the chillingly familiar landscape of the contemporary scene, one element is constant: Each of these sixteen masterpieces offers an experience as inescapable and unforgettable as a dream of terror come hauntingly true."--Pg. [4] of cover.
