Librairie Drawn & Quarterly Books of the Week - March 26, 2015
In the weekly Librairie Drawn & Quarterly Books of the Week, the Montreal bookstore recommends several new works of fiction, art books, periodicals, and comics.
Librairie Drawn & Quarterly is one of Montreal's premiere independent bookstores.
Preservation Society Home Preserves: 100 Modern Recipes
by Camilla Wynne
Montreal-based preserves maven Camilla Wynne is a former indie rock musician who has experience in some of the top restaurant kitchens in North America. Here she shares 100 of her unique and surprising recipes for delicious jams, jellies and marmalades—including Peach Jam with Bourbon and Honey, Cream Pop Marmalade and Maple Ginger Pickled Beets!
The new issue of the San Francisco-based independent food journal focuses on taste. We meet an 11-year old girl whose tastes are unusually adventurous. We learn about how to taste with other people’s palettes, how to overcome aversions to certain foods, how to make Pozole Blanco and a Floral Strawberry Float, and more!
New Lovers erotic fiction series
The first three titles of the anticipated new erotic literature series New Lovers have been released, successfully telling—to hear the Paris Review tell it—stories "for a new generation’s sexual imagination." The novels, all written by women, range in topic (one chronicling a menage relationship between best friends, another a queen's re-seduction of her king) but all offer a new twist on smut.
Rebel Rebel
by Chris O’Leary
Both David Bowie's persona and discography are lovingly catalogued in Rebel Rebel, a look at the artist's output from 1964 to 1976. Exploring his huge oeuvre and his literary, film, and musical influences, music blogger O'Leary uncovers the singer/songwriter who, for all his cultural impact, remains a mystery.
Angry Youth Comix
by Johnny Ryan
Fans of Johnny Ryan’s famously offensive cartoons will rejoice at this new hardcover collection of all his Angry Youth Comix (2000-2008), replete with juvenilia, semen jokes, and other forms of alarming humour.
