Paperback. Zustand: Good. For fans of Michael Pollan and Anthony Bourdain, this ?surprising, flavorsome tour of ancient cuisines? (Kirkus STARRED)?from Neolithic bread to ancient Roman fish sauce?reveals why reviving the foods of the past is the key to saving the future.?A fascinating look at the people who are keeping these ancient food traditions alive against the odds, while offering a rough roadmap toward a more sustainable food ecosystem.??EaterMany of us are worried (or at least we should be) about the impacts of globalization, pollution, and biotechnology on our diets. Whether it's monoculture crops, hormone-fed beef, or high-fructose corn syrup, industrially-produced foods have troubling consequences for us and the planet. But as culinary diversity diminishes, many people are looking to a surprising place to safeguard the future: into the past.The Lost Supper explores an idea that is quickly spreading among restaurateurs, food producers, scientists, and gastronomes around the world: that the key to healthy and sustainable eating lies not in looking forward, but in looking back to the foods that have sustained us through our half-million-year existence as a species.Acclaimed author Taras Grescoe introduces readers to the surprising and forgotten flavors whose revival is captivating food-lovers around the world: ancient sourdough bread last baked by Egyptian pharaohs; raw-milk farmhouse cheese from critically endangered British dairy cattle; ham from Spanish pata negra pigs that have been foraging on acorns on a secluded island since before the United States was a nation; and olive oil from wild olive trees uniquely capable of resisting quickly evolving pests and modern pathogens.From Ancient Roman fish sauce to Aztec caviar to the long-thought-extinct silphium, The Lost Supper is a deep dive into the latest frontier of global gastronomy?the archaeology of taste. Through vivid writing, history, and first-hand culinary experience, Grescoe sets out a provocative case: in order to save these foods, he argues, we've got to eat them.Published in partnership with the David Suzuki Institute.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. When psychologist Marguerite Pierce lands unannounced in Wisconsin, investigative journalist Leah Nash wants nothing to do with her desperate request: exonerate Marguerite's sister, Hannah, convicted of murdering her married lover. Leah's plate is full--her struggling small-town newspaper is hemorrhaging advertisers and her book deadline looms. But Marguerite's plea strikes a raw nerve. Digging into the victim Matthew Ferguson's life, Leah uncovers a minefield of motives. His wife mourns with suspicious fervor. His sister nurses a decades-old grudge. A political rival seethes over ruined ambitions. The husband of Matthew's mistress can't hide his fury. But it's Hannah's own daughter who raises the sharpest questions. What secrets are worth killing to protect? As Leah races to untangle the truth, her own life becomes increasingly chaotic. A fan's admiration becomes a dangerous fixation, her newspaper teeters on collapse, and a looming personal decision threatens to upend her relationship with partner David Cooper. The case forces Leah to confront the ghosts of her past--and the realization that her relentless pursuit of justice may come at the cost of her own future. Contains mature themes.…
