Softcover. Condition: Good. Swiss medical student Victor Frankenstein discovers the secret of life (which he never reveals, lest someone repeat the mistake). He then puts together a body, essentially a man, from various corpses. He then becomes horrified by the creature he has built, and abandons. The creature, suffering a great deal of neglect and abuse, still manages to get a thorough education, and learns of his lineage. After murdering Victor's younger brother, and framing the family maid, the creature tells his (admittedly) sad tale to his "father", and then demands a mate. Victor, in a panic, agrees, then thinks better of it at the last moment, destroying the new bride. In retaliation, the creature murders all of Victor's loved ones (including his wife), and leads Victor on a merry chase across the world.

It encourages the reader to release their pre-conceived notions of poetry, and allow themselves to dance disturbingly through a picture that Ginsberg paints. . . . Planet News is a beautiful read. If its not something youre immediately interested in, the read is worth it for the mere significance Allen Ginsberg has had on the art of poetry."-Ned Tobin, Chronicles of Time"In this collection, the shorter poems, with their impressive grip on exact description, are the best, and remind us of how Ginsberg sees everything-railroads, cloverleafs, Dino Sinclair signs, 'tiny human trees' in the plains, newspaper stories and their reduction of the real to the ("continued from page one") verbal, football fields, J. Edgar Hoover, and above all himself. For his contemporaries, he is the biographer of his time-its high schools, its streets, its telephones, its monsters ('television was a baby crawling toward that deathchamber"), its bland head counts, its drugs, its cops, its cities, its freeways, and most of all its short-cut language."-Helen Vendler, New York Times.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Here is a complete, step-by-step guide to the art of French cooking--designed especially for the American cook. For this revised and expanded edition of her celebrated COOKING A LA CORDON BLEU, Alma Loch has retained her straightforward approach to the elegant cuisine of Paris and added an entirely new section covering the hearty regional foods of the French Provinces. HOW AND WHYS OF FRENCH COOKING is much more than a collection of recipes. Mrs. Lach explains as clearly as possible the logical system by which the French cook performs. She encourages her readers to master the system and then move away from set recipes to their own imaginative refinements. This approach elevates the cook from the everyday task of feeding the family to the artistic realm of creation. There are hundreds of splendid, easy-to-follow recipes in the book--all of them authentically French. She explains how to use substitute ingredients when necessary, and provides a wine recommendation for each main dish (and American wines are included). The ingredients for each recipe are listed in order of use, and procedures are given in numbered steps. Each basic recipe is followed by a number of delightful variations. In the all-new section on provincial cooking Mrs. Lach has prepared menus and recipes that represent the favorite foods of more than 30 regions of France. Many of the recipes are for one dish meals and casseroles--ideal for busy American cooks. These meals are served with French bread, cheese, and fruit, and the beverage is wine, cider, or beer, depending on the province.
