The New York Times–bestselling author of The Forest Feast returns with a gorgeously illustrated volume of 100 new vegetarian recipes for entertaining. When food photographer Erin Gleeson left New York City to live in a cabin in the woods of northern California, she embarked on a culinary adventure of vegetable-centric, seasonal cooking. In The Forest Feast Gatherings, she shares simple, healthy recipes that are easy enough to prepare after a long day at work, yet impressive enough for a party. Along with her visually stunning photography and watercolors, Erin handwrites each recipe to create diagram-like, step-by-step instructions that are vibrant, unique, and east to cook from. She also offers guidance on hosting casual yet thoughtful get-togethers from start to finish. The book offers 100 new, innovative vegetarian recipes that serve 60 to 8, along with some fan favorites from the blog, arranged in a series of artfully designed menus that are tailored around specific occasions—whether a summer dinner party, a laid-back brunch, a vegan and gluten-free gathering, or holiday cocktails.

National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
