Navne er bare fascinerende, og de vedrører os alle sammen. Måske ville dit liv sågar være anderledes, hvis du hed noget andet? Siger vi navne, må vi også sige identitet, mode, smag, generationsforskelle, fordomme, forskelsbehandling og sociale stereotyper – blandt meget andet. Navne er ikke neutrale, men fortæller om, hvem vi er, og hvem vi gerne vil være. Så det er ikke ligegyldigt, hvilke navne vi vælger. Hvad end det er til et barn, en virksomhed, en gade – eller os selv. Hils på Dario, Kløvedal, Sofia, Tommy, Ghita, Ole, Irma, Regnbuepladsen, Sebbastian, Roxy og alle de andre, for denne bog tager dig med på en horisontudvidende rundtur i nutidens danske navnelandskab – med afstikkere til sære navneskikke i andre lande og tider.
"Kitchen Confidential" meets "Heat" in the first behind-the-scenes portrait of the world's best restaurant and the aspiring chefs who toil to make it so exceptional. Elected best restaurant in the world by Restaurant magazine an unprecedented five times, El Bulli is the laboratory of Ferran Adria, the maverick creator of molecular gastronomy. Behind each of the thirty or more courses that make up a meal at El Bulli is a small army of young cooks who do the work of executing Adria's vision in exchange for nothing more than the chance to learn at his hands. Granted unprecedented access to this guild system, Lisa Abend follows the thirty-five stagiaries of the 2009 season as they struggle to master the grueling hours, cutting-edge techniques, and interpersonal tensions that come with working at the most revered restaurant on earth.

A deeply moving and award-winning graphic novel about a young Syrian refugee. Zenobia was once a great warrior queen of Syria whose reign reached from Egypt to Turkey. She was courageous. No one gave her orders. Once she even went to war against the emperor of Rome. When things feel overwhelming for Amina, her mother reminds her to think of Zenobia and be strong. Amina is a Syrian girl caught up in a war that reaches her village. To escape the war she boards a small boat crammed with other refugees. The boat is rickety and the turbulent seas send Amina overboard. In the dark water Amina remembers playing hide and seek with her mother and making dolmas (stuffed grape leaves) and the journey she had to undertake with her uncle to escape. And she thinks of the brave warrior Zenobia. Zenobia is a heartbreaking and all-too-real story of one child's experience of war. Told with great sensitivity in few words and almost exclusively with pictures, Zenobia is a story for children and adults.
