Biota
James Viles
This is habitat-inspired food using local
produce to create honest, pure dishes, each
one telling a story of how that dish became.
Underpinning James Viles food is a celebration
of the balance of animal and plant life. His food
brings together ingredients, textures and flavours
that exist alongside each other in nature, work
together and complement each other. There
are 60recipes, with accompanying stories,
that reflect on the notion of biota, the animals
and plant life of a particular region, and the
philosophy of using what is at hand. The recipes
are home-cook friendly and, while James Viles
may be redefining regional Australian cuisine,
the notion of biota is relevant everywhere.
The message is simple: listen to the local
environment, learn from Mother Nature and
take your inspiration and intuition from the
very place that surrounds you.

Easy Mediterranean
Sue Quinn
Could this be the worlds healthiest way to
eat? The dishes are tried-and-tested, delicious
and easy to prepare and share, and in recent
years the Mediterranean diet has also been
scientifically shown to have immense health
benefits. Abundant in fresh produce and
legumes, and making great use of poultry and
fish over red meat, Mediterranean-style eating
has been proven to reduce the risk of heart
disease, diabetes and stroke. While cookery
writers such as Anna Del Conte, Claudia Roden
and Yotam Ottolenghi have each explored the
traditional cuisines of their individual homelands,
Easy Mediterranean pulls together the best
of the whole region. Sue Quinn combines the
flavours and ingredients of the vibrant countries
that hug the Mediterranean Sea to create fresh
and contemporary dishes for every day. Crucially,
these recipes also celebrate a fundamental
feature of the Mediterranean way of life: that
we should all take a relaxed pleasure in enjoying
good food with friends and family.

lifestyle. Designed, photographed and written
with the charm, humour and originality that have
won Ebony tens of thousands of followers on

make my space special? is Tamara Maynes
mantra. Tamara is not a buyer of furnishings and
decoration for her homeshe is a maker, who

lavishly illustrated book opens with a personal
survey of Tamaras inspiration, practice and
approach, while the core of the book examines
crafts place in interiors. The Maker illustrates the
use of handmade pieces as a decorating tool via
chapters such as Wall art (painting, weaving,

sewing, embroidery); Objects (ceramics, paper
art, metalwork); Lighting (macram, covering
shades); and Furniture (woodwork, painting and

Mickey Robertson
Twenty-five years ago, Mickey Robertson and
her husband Larry purchased a collection of
historic but dilapidated Georgian farm buildings
in country NSW, Australia. Thus began an
intensely emotional journey of restoration and
renewal. The natural world and the seasons
are an integral part of Mickeys home and life,
and she explores the links between them in
this richly illustrated book. Glenmore House
exemplifies her philosophy that colour, texture,
representation, sentiment, memory and emotion
each play a role in creating a home. The colours,
textures and vistas of her world-class garden also
play a significant role within each room of the
house. In addition to the ornamental garden that
enfolds her home, Mickey has built a productive
organic/biodynamic kitchen garden, which is
never dormant. In this book she also provides
30 seasonally based recipes inspired by her
abundant and fresh home-grown produce.

Disobedient Gardens
Michael Cooke and Brigid Arnott
Landscape designer Michael Cooke presents
five of his superbly designed gardens, including
his own, illustrated by the lyrically beautiful
photographs of co-author Brigid Arnott. The
selected gardens encapsulate the characteristics
he considers vital in the making of a truly
beautiful, liveable garden. They have a distinct
voice of their own, reflecting not only the
personality and style of the owners, but also
the longstanding relationship and emotional
connection between the owners and Michael,
who has maintained and developed the gardens
over many years. Significantly, they all feature
elements of wildness combined with a degree of
order. These characteristics lend the gardens great
character, texture and warmththe landscapes
may be magnificent, but they all have an organic
quality, imperfections, a degree of disobedience
that makes them even more fascinating.
