Cooking Down East
As satisfying and unpretentious as the best home cooking, Marjorie Standish's classic Cooking Down East is a wealth of Maine recipes--and Maine lore. As a longtime food columnist for the Maine Sunday Telegram, Standish compiled some of the best recipes from cooks around the state, including the secrets for such classic comfort foods as New England boiled dinner, fish chowder, and baked beans. She shares her hints for preparing these timeless dishes in a lively, clear style, and also imparts detailed information on some of the state's more unusual delicacies, such as fiddleheads, dandelion greens, venison, and partridge. Standish's simple, time-tested recipes made this book a staple of New En...
Chowders, Soups, and Stews
The best recipes from Maine's acclaimed food writer, these are mouth-watering renditions of classics like clam chowder, lobster stew as well as broccoli chowder and crabmeat stew. Simple and simply delicious!
Show Me Good Land
Set in fictional Fort Angus, Maine, Show Me Good Land tells the story of a small rural town struggling with poverty and decay after decades of prosperity. Loosely linked through a grisly murder, its characters must navigate the ambiguous moral landscape of a waning community. It is a moving, sometimes melancholy, often funny novel about family, community, loss, redemption, and coming home. The pleasure lies in exploring the personalities of the characters, none of whom are all good or all bad, and eventually deciding where the reader's own moral lines are drawn. Not since Carolyn Chute's The Beans of Egypt, Maine, has a cast of characters been so shocking, beautifully rendered, and ultimately likeable.
Seafood
With more than a dash of Maine friendliness, Marjorie Standish serves up a bounty of satisfying dishes such as Finnan Haddie, Baked Stuffed Lobster, Old-Fashioned Clam Pie, Boothbay Harbor Crab Cakes, Lobster Casserole, and many more—all submitted over the years by faithful readers of Marjorie's wonderful newspaper column Cooking Down East. Pull up a chair and enjoy.

CinemaTexas Notes
Austin’s thriving film culture, renowned for international events such as SXSW and the Austin Film Festival, extends back to the early 1970s when students in the Department of Radio-Television-Film at the University of Texas at Austin ran a film programming unit that screened movies for students and the public. Dubbed CinemaTexas, the program offered viewers a wide variety of films—old and new, mainstream, classic, and cult—at a time when finding and watching films after their first run was very difficult and prohibitively expensive. For each film, RTF graduate students wrote program notes that included production details, a sampling of critical reactions, and an original essay that pl...
