The Year's Best Cookbooks

Both India Cookbook (ISBN: 9780714859026) and The Book of Tapas (ISBN: 9780714856131) from Phaidon Press have been featured in The New York Times (circ. 951,063) annual cookbook round-up. Both cookbooks are prominently featured in the photograph that ran on the front page of the Dining section yesterday (12/8). Both books received excellent praise:

On India Cookbook "Wave upon wave of recipes that illustrate the enormous creativity of Indian cooks"

On The Book of Tapas "Irrestistible for many reasons [...] It is summer cooking bound between sunny covers."

Michael Buckley

Bestselling author MICHAEL BUCKLEY, author of the hit book series THE SISTERS GRIMM and NERDS, has terrific new Cartoon Network show called ROBOTOMY. It has been a quick hit. New Episodes air Mondays at 8:45 est/7:45c.

From MTV Geek:

“Robotomy” is about Thrasher and Blastus, two teenage best-friends who happen to be killer robots. They just want to fit in, be popular, find love, shoot old people into space – you know, typical teenage stuff. The problem is they live on the planet Insanus where feelings are bad and destruction is fun. Their teachers at Harry S. Apocalypse High are determined to turn them into interplanetary conquerors, or to destroy them in the process. In this regard, it’s not much different than your typical American high-school.

What to Cook and How to Cook It

What to Cook and How to Cook It (ISBN: 9780714859583) was prominently featured over the weekend on the first page of The Wall Street Journal (circ. 2 million) Food section. The "Bits and Bites" column ran on the bottom quarter of the front page of the section.

There will be a review of Renée French: H Day in The New York Times Book Review's Halloween issue on October 31st.  Renée French, an acclaimed graphic novelist and Inkpot Award winner at San Diego's Comic-Con International, has entranced legions of fans with her twisted, highly inventive pencil drawings, whose agile lines and delicate shading open up strange imaginary vistas. She's been called an inimitable and masterful stylist, a kind of Edward Gorey who draws out the whimsical side of body-horror, and indeed, the spirit of Gorey's grotesques breathes through French's creations. In H Day, her first graphic novel in four years, French explores, through metaphor and in pictures, her struggles with migraine headaches, marshaling troops of insects, beasts and humanoids to envision the processes that result in such hideous sensations. A sweeping, often tense narrative of invasion, repulsion and liberation, H Day can be read both as an oblique autobiography and as a suspenseful fantasy story. This volume makes clear the qualities that led Myla Goldberg, author of Bee Season, to call Renée French "that rare gift among artists--one whose work finds its way into the most guarded corners of our psyches and allows us to revel in all that is awkward, embarrassing or sticky about being alive."
