We Should All be Mirandas
"A snarky lifestyle guide inspired by the most underrated character on Sex and the City, from the creators of the Instagram sensation @everyoutfitonSATC"--
Sex and the City
An insightful look at the cultural impact of the television phenomenon Sex and the City. Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, one word was on everyone’s lips: sex. Sex and the City had taken the United States, and the world, by storm. Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha influenced how a generation of women think, practice, and talk about sex, allowing them to embrace their sexual desires publicly and unlocking the idea of women as sexual beings on par with men. In Sex and the City: A Cultural History, Nicole Evelina provides a fascinating, in-depth look at the show’s characters, their relationships, and the issues the show confronted. From sexuality and feminism to friendship and...

Table Manners: The Cookbook
'Beautifully put-together with wonderfully crafted, full-on flavour recipes for everyone. A proper family feast of a cookbook!' Tom Kerridge ‘This is a gorgeous book.’ Nigella Lawson ‘Lennie and Jessie are as madly entertaining to read as they are to be around. They are also brilliant storytellers so every recipe is as personal as it could be: a classic Jewish chopped liver served on Friday night dinners, aromatic Beef Stifado eaten on Greek holidays or an orange and pistachio cake created by son and brother. I adore this family.’ Yotam Ottolenghi ‘This book encapsulates humour, kindness, bucket loads of love and, most importantly, good food. I’m so happy to have the Ware family ...
A votre service - Les travailleurs essentiels qu'on ne voit pas
Un essai sociologique qui aborde la difficulté des métiers de service, trop souvent pris de haut alors qu'ils sont fondamentaux, comme l'a d'ailleurs soulevé la crise COVID en 2020. À l'heure des questionnements et de la refonte du monde du travail, une catégorie reste sur la touche : les employés du service. Livreurs, hôtes de caisse, agents d'entretien, conseillers de vente,... Applaudis aux premiers jours du COVID, puis vite renvoyés à leurs occupations, ils sont les plus grands oubliés d'un débat essentiel, celui du bien-être au travail. Entre mépris de classe, harcèlement, déshumanisation, agression et infantilisation, les employés du service, souvent essentiels, pourtan...
