` He looks like a Brit, this guy. Full of good intentions & bad ideas`.

It features a self-serving MP lost & alone in an African dictatorship; a young, ultra-hip entrepreneur looking for something (or someone) new to exploit; &, an English veteran of a colonial war trying to save England from itself. With a host of other brilliant & brilliantly drawn characters, this is the funniest & most moving story of Englishness as it never was, isn`t now &, hopefully, will never be. ...

Yotam Ottolenghi, well known for his excellent recipes which add a twist of adventure to ordinary ingredients, returns to his native Jerusalem to produce with his friend Sami Tamimi a lovely & interesting cookery book. Given the background of their families, Yotan grew up the Jewish west part of the city while Sami was a child in Muslim east Jerusalem, the books draws on both culinary cultures. As you’d expect chicken soup with knaidlach or latkes are there, but so is baba ghanoush & other Middle Eastern specialities. Like in most Ottolenghi recipes, lists of ingredients are often long but the rewards are well worth the effort. The book is illustrated with nice, not-too-intimidating photos of the dishes & of food-related scenes in the city itself. ...
