Book Description
Kinfolk is a slow lifestyle magazine that explores ways for readers to simplify their lives, cultivate community and spend more time with their friends and family. It is the place to discover new things to cook, make and do. The fall issue of Kinfolk explores one of life's simplest pleasures: sharing a meal. The act of eating together - whether at a well-appointed table or in the simple breaking of bread - is an essential element of a well-lived life. As MFK Fisher famously wrote, sharing a meal can be more intimate than sharing a bed. In this issue, we examine the role of food in forming and sustaining relationships, its place in art and political history, and its significance to the arbiters contemporary culture. We visit a breadmaker in her Brooklyn studio, test a curated selection of recipes by a celebrated chef, thumb the pages of Dali's surrealist cookbook and revisit MFK Fisher's seminal writing on the joy of simple meals.

The Amazing Story of the Tonelli Family in America

Publisher: Addison Wesley Publishing Company
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 296

Book Description
"The book starts with the arrival of an odd piece of junk mail at the author's home in the stouthearted Little Italy of South Philadelphia. He's been offered the complete directory of Tonellis in America, for only $27.95. That sparks a half-mad cross-country trek in a rental car, an expedition that reaches from Disney World to the Arctic Circle, from the beaches of L.A. to a prison in Iowa, all in search of people named Tonelli. He finds hundreds of them, living fantastically diverse lives: a Notre Dame football star/hero Tonelli, a Korean Tonelli, two prison inmate Tonellis, one retired nun Tonelli, a morning deejay Tonelli, a Native American Tonelli, a psychic Tonelli - the list goes on and on. None of them are related to him, but that's OK - he's looking for something larger than family. He's looking for a nation: The Tonelli Nation?" "What Bill Tonelli discovers on the road, aside from the rough splendor of the country itself, are answers to the questions about his own place in America and that of every descendant of immigrants. He learns the truth about family values, the meaning of blood and memory, and two hundred and sixteen ways to make tomato sauce. He glimpses the cold, scary future of diminished kinship, diluted ethnically, and waning community. And he finds the answer to the biggest question of all: Why are we here?"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Book Description
This survey of historical and modern portraiture presents a fundamentally new and exciting exploration of how people view themselves, their personal relationships, and their tribes. Portraits--single, double, and group--are the focus of this fascinating volume. Encompassing work from the 18th century to the present, this selection examines how portraits shape our notion of self in the context of individuality, partnerships, and relationships. Three illustrated essays probe topics such as the portrait from the perspective of photography, cinema, and theater; the double portrait in all its variety, such as heterosexual and same-sex couples, mother and child, twins, reflections, shadows, and doppelgangers; and the sometimes uneasy alliance between the individual and community in portraiture. Thought-provoking and fascinating, this book will appeal to readers interested in art history and social criticism as well as psychology and social media.
