Disorientation (pocket, eng)
'The funniest, most poignant novel of the year' - VogueDisorientation is an uproarious and big-hearted satire - alive with sharp edges, immense warmth, and a cast of unforgettable characters - that asks: who gets to tell our stories? Ingrid Yang is desperate to finish her PhD dissertation on the much-lauded poet Xiao-Wen Chou and never read about 'Chinese-y' things again, when she accidentally stumbles upon a strange note in the Chou archives that she thinks may be her ticket out of academic hell.But Ingrid has no idea that the note will lead to an explosive secret, upending her entire life and the lives of those around her. Her clumsy exploits to discover the truth set off a rollercoaster of mishaps and misadventures, from campus protests and over-the-counter drug hallucinations, to book burnings and a movement that stinks of Yellow Peril propaganda. In the aftermath, she'll have to question everything, from her relationship with her fiance to the kind of person she dares to be.'The funniest novel I've read all year' - Aravind Adiga, author of The White Tiger'Fearless' - Observer'Elaine Hsieh Chou's pen is a scalpel' - Raven Leilani, author of Luster Format Pocket Omfång 401 sidor Språk Engelska Förlag Pan Books Ltd Utgivningsdatum 2023-07-27 ISBN 9781529080674

![THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERFrom award-winning actor and food obsessive Stanley Tucci comes an intimate and charming memoir of life in and out of the kitchen. 'It's impossible to read this without becoming ravenous!' -- Nigella Lawson'It is as infectious as it is delicious, as funny as it is insightful. The only reason to put this book down, is to go cook and eat from it' -- Heston BlumenthalFrom award-winning actor and food obsessive Stanley Tucci comes an intimate and charming memoir of life in and out of the kitchen. Before Stanley Tucci became a household name with The Devil Wears Prada, The Hunger Games, and the perfect Negroni, he grew up in an Italian American family that spent every night around the table. He shared the magic of those meals with us in The Tucci Cookbook and The Tucci Table, and now he takes us beyond the recipes and into the stories behind them. Taste is a reflection on the intersection of food and life, filled with anecdotes about growing up in Westchester, New York, preparing for and filming the foodie films Big Night and Julie & Julia, falling in love over dinner, and teaming up with his wife to create conversation-starting meals for their children. Each morsel of this gastronomic journey through good times and bad, five-star meals and burnt dishes, is as heartfelt and delicious as the last. Written with Stanley's signature wry humour and nostalgia, Taste is a heartwarming read that will be irresistible for anyone who knows the power of a home-cooked meal. 'The man, the myth, The Devil Wears Prada legend Stanley Tucci has blessed our hungry souls with a food memoir [... in which] he divulges some of his most treasured memories and stories behind favourite recipes - prepare to feel bereaved when it's over' - - Evening Standard'Superb ...
