THE MELANCHOLY DEATH OF OYSTER BOY...

We have just had delivery of The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & other stories by Tim Burton- as recommended by a dear friend of ours.

The book comprises of twenty-three illustrated gothic tales from the dark corridors of the imagination of Tim Burton. Burton - the creative genius behind Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Mars Attacks! and Nightmare Before Chistmas, among others - now gives birth to a cast of gruesomely sympathetic children: misunderstood outcasts who struggle to find love and belonging in their cruel, cruel worlds. His lovingly lurid illustrations evoke both the sweetness and tragedy of these hopeful, yet hapless beings.

GO BACK IN TIME FOR SOME RECESSION STYLE EATING...

We recently stumbled across this wonderful book of wartime recipes, perfect for penny pinching traditional home cooking.

Supplemented by recipes by the Daily Telegraph Home Cook, this delightful facsimile edition includes recipes for the perfect omelette made with dried egg, mock cream, mock fish pie (made with Jerusalem artichokes!) and seven ways to stuff potatoes, but in amongst the more horrific attempts to feed a family on meagre rations are some dishes that would grace any good cook's table today: jugged steak, red cabbage, hot and cold, fresh fruit charlotte and spiced fruit gingerbread. Even recipes that seem heavily reliant on tinned milk, marge and dried egg, when made today with fresh milk, butter and whole eggs will work a treat.

Available in store or via mail order.
