Cuando la vida te da limones… es un viaje gastronómico y cultural que sitúa al limón en el centro del segundo volumen de la colaboración de TASCHEN con The Gourmand, la revista donde comida y arte se cruzan constantemente.

Este orbe amarillo, aparentemente simple, revela una historia llena de giros, desde su papel en los jardines renacentistas vinculados a los Medici hasta su capacidad para proteger del escorbuto, su relación con episodios inesperados de la historia social, y su uso como tinta invisible desde el año 600 d. C. El libro traza la genealogía de esta fruta y explora su presencia como recurso literario en autores como Joan Didion, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tom Wolfe y James Joyce, además de su imaginario ligado al sueño americano a través de los puestos de limonada.

El limón también ha sido un motivo recurrente en el arte, desde naturalezas muertas clásicas hasta la inspiración de figuras modernas como Picasso, Matisse o Warhol. Su influencia se extiende al diseño y a la cultura material, con iconos como el Juicy Salif de Philippe Starck o el Jif Lemon, y aparece en artes decorativas, papeles pintados Arts and Crafts o cerámicas de temática mitológica. Con prólogo del chef Simon Hopkinson e introducción de Jennifer Higgie, el volumen se completa con más de 60 recetas con un toque de limón de cocinas de todo el mundo, desde aves y salsas hasta cócteles y postres, fotografiadas en exclusiva por Bobby Doherty.

nice LITTLE tables
Color: Black, Item Package Quantity: 2, Color: Black, Item Package Quantity: 2
these tables are ..... easy to assemble sturdy nice to look at HOWEVER missing 2 stars for... they are small and plugging in items such as my laptop cord made it bulky and always in my way. if there was a middle shelf that would help with the small tops if the outlet bar was on the side or under the top that would help with the bulky cord issue

Need Battery's

Good floating shelves. I mounted the light strip on the top instead of the bottom because they don't stick well. For the price I wish they came with a set of batteries for the pack and the remote. But over all sturdy and well made.
