"Mariana's Letter" is a cookbook written as you would write a note to a friend. This book comes from the many newsletters I wrote over the years. The recipes come from many sources but are mainly French and American. I have tried to stay away from recipes that have too many or hard to find ingredients or require too much to be done at the last minute. Recipes are often accompanied by stories, true or fictional. You do not have to be a cook to enjoy reading this book - only to enjoy the thought of a good meal and listening to a good story.I have always followed the rule that if one can not taste the recipe by reading it, it is better to discard it for one that tastes good in your head. I have spent some time in France as well as Washington, D.C., New York City and the Rangeley Lakes of Northwestern Maine and I come from a family of writers who loved to cook and tell stories

Through meticulous examinations, this book analyzes how women update their identities and articulate their feelings through clothing and art in protests, politics in the United States in the 20th century. Topics explored include the suffragists and their impact on contemporary art, the significance of the red dress in both The Handmaid’s Tale and the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women movement, the impact of the Miss America protests, the rising popularity of the pantsuit for women, the recent dominance of the pussyhat, and the way that feminist slogans are disseminated on t-shirts. Movements discussed include craftivism, hashtag culture, feminism, the CROWN act, Pantsuit Nation, socially-committed stores, and more. Interdisciplinary and intersectional at its core, addressing numerous areas, including fashion, sociology, visual culture, art history, feminism, and popular culture; Fashioning Politics and Protests uncovers how women continue to use visual means, explored via their clothing, to change the world.
Este libro es para todo aquel que quiera saber más de los nombres de sus seres queridos y para todos los que quieran elegir el nombre de un hijo o una hija por llegar. Elegimos un nombre por su sonoridad, porque nos recuerda a alguien querido o admirado, por muchas razones y todas válidas. Pero siempre es interesante saber de dónde viene, cuál es su origen y desde cuándo se otorga como nombre o qué personaje en la historia lo ha llevado. Y muchos nombres de origen extranjero tienen un significado que desconocemos y que, sin embargo, acompañará a la persona que lo lleve. Este libro da razón de más de 1000 nombres que se usan actualmente. Josep Maria Albaigès, que fue el primero en publicar hace ya muchos años un libro de nombres propios, ha completado este gran trabajo suyo con nombres de todas las regiones de España (aragoneses, catalanes, gallegos, vascos,) pero también guaranís, guanches, chinos, japoneses, hindús... dando fe de nuestra sociedad cosmopolita.
