In this bold Afropunk science-fantasy debut, African mythology and post-apocalyptic survival collide as a gifted healer refuses to let her body, future, or destiny belong to anyone but herself.

In the year 2447, Africa has been transformed by nuclear devastation, mutation, and myth. Ife-Iyoku, humanity’s last African refuge, survives under the protection of the Orisha and the weight of sacred tradition. Imade is a healer with extraordinary gifts, born into a society that values survival above all else — even individual choice.

When catastrophe leaves Ife-Iyoku facing extinction, the elders look to Imade as the answer to their future. To them, she is the last woman, the vessel through which the tribe must continue. But Imade refuses to be reduced to duty, prophecy, or biology. Her life is not an offering to be claimed.

As dangers gather beyond the walls and corruption festers within them, Imade steps beyond the role chosen for her and into a larger, more dangerous inheritance. In a world shaped by wounded gods, ancestral memory, and the fierce will to survive, she must decide what kind of power she will become — and what liberation will cost.

From Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki, the historic Nebula and World Fantasy Award-winning author, comes a fierce debut novel of African mythology, post-apocalyptic imagination, survival, and self-determination.

Finally, the secret sauce of Noma is revealed—the long-anticipated follow-up to the bestselling The Noma Guide to Fermentation offers more than 150 recipes for infused oils, vinaigrettes, fudges, spice mixes, rubs, sauces, and other flavor-boosting condiments that professional and home cooks can now make and use to elevate every part of their cooking.

Nothing tastes like the food at Noma. Nothing is as delicious, as surprising, as unique. A big part of the reason why is found in the Noma pantry, the seasonings, condiments, sauces, and other flavor compounds developed over two decades by René Redzepi and the Noma test kitchen. And now 150 of these components that define the inimitable taste of Noma—including roasted kelp salt, smoked egg yolk sauce, Nordic pesto, and lacto-koji beurre blanc—are shared in The Noma Guide to Building Flavour. Most of the recipes are illustrated with step-by-step photo sequences detailing the techniques needed to transform surprisingly familiar ingredients into elements of Noma’s distinctive cuisine. Noma uses these recipes to create elevated preparations for the restaurant (a selection of gorgeous plated-dish photos are included), but readers—whether professionals or avid home cooks—will find plenty of inspiration for their own kitchens, aided by do-able suggestions from Noma chefs.
 
In conversational essays and anecdotes woven throughout the book, Redzepi shares how staff members from around the globe have influenced Noma’s flavor palette, and how Noma chefs take pristine seasonal ingredients and blend, grind, dry, smoke, macerate, reduce and otherwise elicit the most potent and desirable flavors that make up the sensory language of Noma. Between the narrative portions and the meticulous recipes, chefs and home cooks alike will discover new dimensions of flavor and expand their ideas of what food can be.

"WOROFILA Worofila Street: Building African Architecture" "The first book by Senegalese practice Worofila, bringing together their research processes and projects to suggest an approach to making in architecture in contemporary Africa This collection of critical texts and project presentations reflects on the legacy of colonialism in building practices in West Africa, and explores local pre-colonial histories to forge a contemporary bioclimatic and ecological architectural language Worofila are a celebrated emerging practice based in Dakar and headed by principals Nzinga B. Mboup and Nicolas Rondet, whose work has been widely exhibited and discussed" "This irst book by celebrated Senegalese practice Woroila addresses the challenge facing the African city of today: to build in a way that is adapted to the lives of cur- rent inhabitants without compromising those of future generations. Drawing on abundant but often ignored pre-colonial methods and models of building, Woroila create bioclimatic architecture based around local, non-polluting materials, ances- tral knowledge, and democratic systems of construction and maintenance. Their work moves beyond the legacy of colonial-era architecture, imposed from other cultures and climates and frequently ill-suited, to recover and develop a sustainable African architectural language that reflects the continent's climate, ecology, and identity. Worofila Street: Building African Architecture offers an overview of Woroila's proliic work to date, with detailed explorations of the research, ideas, and tech- niques that structure it. Texts on the histories of building in Senegal and the pre- and post-colonial conditions of architecture on the African continent are accompanied by presentations of projects spanning housing, public buildings, infrastructure, landscapes, and experiments with materials. Together these propose a new typol- ogy of building in Senegal and inspire approaches to develop local and sustainable architectures across the world." "WOROFILA are a Dakar-based architectural practice founded in 2019 and headed by Nzinga B. Mboup and Nicolas Rondet. Woroila specialises in bioclimatic architecture and construction using local materials such as raw earth and typha, with the aim of promoting an architecture that is durable and in harmony with the climate."
