ISBN: 9780803226746 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. After a childhood of microwaved meat and saturated fat, Matthew Gavin Frank got serious about food.

Pot Farm details the strange, sublime, and sometimes dangerous goings-on at Weckman Farm, a place with hidden politics and social hierarchies, populated by recovering drug addicts, alternative healers, pseudo-hippie kids, and medical...

Preparing the Ghost: An Essay Concerning the Giant Squid and Its First Photographer
ISBN: 9780871402837 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Moses Harvey was the eccentric Newfoundland reverend and amateur naturalist who first photographed the near-mythic giant squid in 1874, draping it over a shower curtain rod to display its magnitude.

In a full-hearted, lyrical style reminiscent of Geoff Dyer, Frank weaves in playful forays about his research trip to Moses s...
