Item description from seller

A perfectly serviceable reference copy; nothing fancy, but complete and sturdy. Rubbing to extremities, scuffing to spine head, dealer stamp, neatly affixed, previous owner's inscription inside front flap, rubbing of gilt lettering to spine. A marvelous memoir of food and culture equal to Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential or perhaps George Orwell's Down and Out in Paris and London. Picture the chef's towering white toque, the high bonnet, the mark of achievement to which every young sauce-stirrer aspires. A fine, urbane novel, following the very young, very provincial Jean as he attempts to master culinary art at the hands of Paris's most distinguished chefs. 184 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.

Store description

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does “structure” (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the “agency” of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn’t going to solve the debate, but we’ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses—we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana. Structure, Verses, Agency Books…
