Artists in Residence Seventeen Artists and Their Living Spaces, from Giverny to Casa Azul by Melissa Wyse, illustrated by Kate Lewis

This book invites readers into the homes of seventeen legendary and contemporary artists. Writer Melissa Wyse and illustrator Kate Lewis explore the nuances of how physical spaces inspire and support artistic practice, from Georgia O'Keeffe's desert retreat at Ghost Ranch to Hassan Hajjaj's radical blend of private home, tea room, and art gallery in Marrakech. Each chapter weaves in historical and biographical context and highlights fascinating details that in turn illuminate the artist's work in a new way. The text is engaging and accessible, and the illustrations invite readers into the feeling of the space in a way photographs cannot. An epilogue prompts readers to rethink how their own home could become a more creative space.

Mango and Peppercorns by Tung Nguyen, Katherine Manning and Lyn Nguyen

In 1975, after narrowly escaping the fall of Saigon, pregnant refugee and gifted cook Tung Nguyen ended up in the Miami home of Kathy Manning, a graduate student and waitress who was taking in displaced Vietnamese. This serendipitous meeting evolved into a decades-long partnership, one that eventually turned strangers into family and a tiny, no-frills eatery into one of the most lauded restaurants in the country.

Old School Photography 100 Things You Must Know to Take Fantastic Film Photos by Kai Man Wong

OLD SCHOOL PHOTOGRAPHY is a how-to manual for taking photographs with 35-millimeter and medium-format film cameras. Through writing, diagrams, and photographic examples, author Kai Man Wong explains all you need to know about owning and using the best film cameras available in the world. Like the resurgence of vinyl records, there is a huge renewed interest among camera and photography enthusiasts in collecting and using vintage film cameras. In fact, film manufacturers have started reselling out-of-print film stock - Kodak just re-released their beloved Ektachrome film in 2019. Old- school photography is new to many young photographers, and many of them are looking back at classic techniques with renewed creative interest.

Church, Interrupted Havoc & Hope: The Tender Revolt of Pope Francis by John Cornwell

Bestselling author, VANITY FAIR contributor, journalist, and scholar John Cornwell examines Pope Francis's life and legacy, and his efforts to break up the traditional Catholic Church so that it may be reshaped as a source of hope, guidance, and support. With exceptional insight, prescient analysis, and original reporting, Cornwell traces the ways in which the Church has fallen from esteem in recent years - and the manner in which the pope has instigated fresh ideas for disrupting entrenched Catholic mindsets in order to create a thriving Church for Catholics around the world.

After more than a thousand years of history and tradition, more than a third of America's 74 million Catholics say they are prepared to leave the Church, which is rife with scandal and distrust; this radical decline in attendance, affiliation, and vocations to the priesthood and sisterhoods tells a story of near-irrevocable dissatisfaction.

When you're the middle kid, you're never the first nor the last to do anything. You're not the tallest or the smallest; you're babysitting one sibling but teased by the other. Stuck between a bossy older brother and a naive younger sister, Middle Kid feels left out of two worlds. But even if - and maybe especially because - it's always overlooked, this kid's own world is just as big and important as his siblings'. Gently funny and richly detailed, THE MIDDLE KID takes readers through a day in the life of a middle kid, and all the challenges and advantages of a life in-between.

Realistic, funny, and family-based, THE MIDDLE KID speaks to the often- overlooked middle child's experience without judging older and younger siblings and explores the differences between the experiences of multiple siblings.
