Hardback. Condizione: Good. A young student of anthropology receives an offer she can't refuse: the chance to live among the Pumé, a South American hunting-and-gathering people who call the tropical Venezuelan savannah home. During their time in the village of Doro Aná, the author and the principal researcher study a vanishing way of life in which cash money, the written word, automobiles, and airplanes are rare and frightening intrusions. Adopted into a Pumé family, Yu's informal and personal accounts of events during her two year stay sparkle with descriptive flourishes and turns of phrase as she describes the daily cycles of birth, growth, romance, sickness, healing, and death among the villagers. Enlivened with the author's own illustrations, Yu's journal entries seek to present through a young American's eyes a sketch of her Pumé family, their heroic struggle to survive in a changing world, and the power and mystery of the Pumé way of life. "In Hungry Lightning we glimpse haunting fragments of life among the Pumé Indians. We find an intimate, deeply feminine--but ever-so-slightly jaded and strangely melancholic--voice savoring the tastes and smells of life lived in the Venezuelan savanna. A complexly sensual portrait."--Barbara Tedlock.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A cookbook from the future embracing the reality of delicious virusesThis cookbook by Taiwanese artist Pei-Ying Lin (born 1986) is an illustrated guide that showcases how ever-changing viruses affect our sense of taste. The core concept of Virophilia involves experiencing the viruses in food. Her performances combine different selections of recipes that use the viruses in different ways. The audience eats while listening to stories about the viruses.Since 2055, viruses have become an important part of our everyday food culture. Those born before 2015 may still remember the fear of the natural order that the coronavirus brought us, but since 2055 we have known that such fear is also irresistibly tasty. Viruses that were once exclusive to the research and medical realms are now constitutive of our natural habitat.Pei-Ying Lin, currently based in the Netherlands, has recently been focusing on boundaries (invisible/visible, living/nonliving) and building tools and methods that facilitate their exploration.
