Between the Lines
The library is full of knowledge and fun, so let’s look in between the lines and see what books are popular this month and the librarians recommendations. Let’s look at the three newest books.
PICKING UP THE PIECES Newman, a master carver and sculptor turned storyteller, takes you behind the scenes of his multi-panelled, three-dimensional traveling art installation that tells the story of Canada’s residential school story.
THE CHEMISTRY OF FOOD In this book, you can learn the science behind the food and explore the chemistry within the meal, how nutrition works, what creates flavor, and why texture is important. What better place to learn the fundamentals of chemistry than in the kitchen? Get recipes, learn things related to a food career path, and more.
FRESH FRUIT, BROKEN BODIES The most popular/read book right now is about migrant workers, by Holmes Seth. This book examines the everyday lives and suffering of Mexican migrants in our contemporary food system. Holmes shows how market forces, anti-immigrant sentiment, and racism undermine health and health care.
