¿Por qué dependemos de la naturaleza y cómo nos beneficiamos de ella?«Quienes hayan leído hasta aquí podrán acusarme, no sin motivo, de haber hecho trampas en mi argumentación: ''Usted nos dice, por un lado, que demos gracias a los microbios, y por otro que afortunadamente hongos y malas hierbas han inventado los remedios para matarlos, también que necesitamos a los insectos, pero a la vez que agradezcamos que los murciélagos se los coman. ¿En qué quedamos? ¿O acaso existen microbios e insectos, biodiversidad, en definitiva, buena y mala, y deberíamos cuidar la una y erradicar la otra?''. Entiendo su perplejidad. (...) Pero la importancia de la vida de la que formamos parte no se puede parcelar, ya que en esencia es un enorme conjunto de pesos y contrapesos relacionados, que como resultado mantienen la biosfera en un equilibrio dinámico idóneo para nuestra especie (y las otras).»Del prólogo, Miguel Delibes de Castro

‘Sharing food is one of the purest human acts'Food has always been an integral part of Stanley Tucci’s life: from stracciatella soup served in the shadow of the Pantheon, to marinara sauce cooked between rehearsals and costume fittings, to home-made pizza eaten with his children before bedtime.Now, in What I Ate in One Year Tucci records twelve months of eating, in restaurants, kitchens, film sets, press junkets, at home and abroad, with friends, with family, with strangers, and occasionally just by himself.Ranging from the mouth-wateringly memorable, to the comfortingly domestic, to the infuriatingly inedible, the meals memorialized in this diary are a prism through which he reflects on the ways his life, and his family, are constantly evolving. Through food he marks – and mourns – the passing of time, the loss of loved ones, and prepares himself for what is to come.Whether it’s duck à l’orange eaten with fellow actors and cooked by singing Carmelite nuns, steaks barbecued at a gathering with friends, or meatballs made by his mother and son and shared at the table with three generations of his family, these meals give shape and richness to his days.

Does terroir really matter? What are the origins of wine and food pairings? Has professional wine tasting led to a uniformity of taste? Are we killing vines by the way we cultivate them? Is it paradoxical to talk about natural wines? How do economics influence wine styles?One Thousand Vines isn't an encyclopedia or atlas but it answers all the important questions about wine and offers the reader keys to understand the links between the bottle and the producers, terroirs and vineyards which give birth to it. With a refreshingly unique approach, star sommelier Pascaline Lepeltier offers those curious about wine not only the answers but also the tools to understand it by oneself.The book contains three parts - Reading the Vines, Reading the Landscapes and Reading the Wines - each broken down into chapters and shorter sub-chapters. The reader is invited to dive in as they by reading from start to finish, or by picking out topics of interest, creating their own paths, connecting dots and discovering new perspectives.In imparting the most up-to-date knowledge in the fields of botany, geography, history, sensory analysis, anthropology and gastronomy, One Thousand Vines challenges preconceived ideas about the vine and its wine. It explains where we are now, how we got here, and shows us a way forward - in how grapes will be grown, made into wine and sold and in how to taste and enjoy wine.

Sergio Mora acostumbra a combinar estilos, géneros, mezclando cultura pop estadounidense lo sobrenatural con lo mundano, la magia, lo terrenal, el cine, los tebeos, la historia y el humor y la «La rocambolesca historia de la película La Chica de Serie B» no iba a ser una excepción. En esta ocasión, Sergio Mora cruza dos tramas. Por un lado el rodaje de una película sobre Milicent Patrick, la creadora del monstruo clásico de Universal, la Criatura de la Laguna, cuya autoría fue ocultada y su figura relegada al ostracismo durante décadas. Y por otro, las peripecias del director de dicha cinta, Simón Sagal, su tensa relación de pareja, el tortuoso camino a la fama, conspiraciones, haters, managers farloperos, hechizos, conjuros y sucesos varios que hacen de esta combinación un relato de humor tronchante de primer orden. Por si fuera poco, en esta mezcla explosiva, conviven cómic y novela, un tebeo con mucha letra, un ping pong de narrativa y viñetas, un poco como aquellos libros de Bruguera de los 60, que llevaban en la página impar un cómic que completaba la narrativa del texto a su izquierda. Este descacharrante relato se remata con una potencia estética de primer orden, el inconfundible estilo de Sergio Mora, aka Mágico Mora, iluminado con 4 tintas directas como 4 besetes en las pupilas.
