this is the recipe of life

Life, the Universe and Everything
In Life, the Universe and Everything, the third title in Douglas Adams' blockbusting sci-fi comedy series, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Arthur Dent finds himself enlisted to prevent a galactic war.
This edition includes exclusive bonus material from the Douglas Adams archives, and an introduction by Simon Brett, producer of the original radio broadcast.
Following a number of stunning catastrophes, which have involved him being alternately blown up and insulted in ever stranger regions of the Galaxy, Arthur Dent is surprised to find himself living in a cave on prehistoric Earth. However, just as he thinks that things cannot get possibly worse, they suddenly do. An eddy in the space-time continuum lands him, Ford Prefect, and their flying sofa in the middle of the cricket ground at Lord's, just two days before the world is due to be destroyed by the Vogons.
Escaping the end of the world for a second time, Arthur, Ford, and their old friend Slartibartfast embark (reluctantly) on a mission to save the whole galaxy from fanatical robots. Not bad for a man in his dressing gown . . .
Follow Arthur Dent's galactic (mis)adventures in the rest of the trilogy with five parts: So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless.

Stories of Your Life and Others
With Stories of Your Life and Others, his masterful debut collection, multiple-award-winning author Ted Chiang deftly blends human emotion and scientific rationalism in eight remarkably varied stories.
From a soaring Babylonian tower that connects a flat Earth to the firmament above, to a world where angelic visitations are a wondrous and terrifying part of everyday life; from a neural modification that eliminates the appeal of physical beauty, to an alien language that challenges our very perception of time and reality, Chiang’s unique imagination invites us to question our understanding of the universe and our place in it.
The title novella 'Story of Your Life' was the basis for the Academy Award-winning film Arrival, starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner.
Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literateure.

My Life With The Walter Boys - Életem a Walter fiúkkal
Átkozott tökéletesség!
Jackie nem szereti a meglepetéseket. A káosz maga az ellenség! A legjobb módja annak, hogy a sikeres, elfoglalt szülei felfigyeljenek rá, az, ha tökéletes lesz ő is. Tökéletes külső, tökéletes jegyek - a tökéletes gyerek. És akkor...
1. sokk: Jackie családja életét veszti egy szörnyű autóbalesetben.
2. sokk: Jackie-nek az ország másik végébe kell költöznie,
hogy a Walter családdal éljen - az új gyámjaival.
3. sokk: Walteréknek tizenkét fiuk van. (Vagyis tizenegy,
de Parker teljesen úgy viselkedik, mint egy fiú.)
Jackie-nek le kell cserélnie az A típusú személyiségét és New York-i lakását egy coloradói tanyára és a hozzá járó vad Walter fiúkra. A lányt az ellenség veszi körül - hangos, rendetlen, idegesítő fiúk, akiknek gőzük sincs a személyes tér fogalmáról. Oké, a legidősebb srácok közül néhányan kifejezetten gyönyörűek. De attól még idegesítők mind. És Jackie nem nagyképű vagy unalmas, bármit is mondanak! De ezt bebizonyítani már más kérdés. Hogyan tud majd beilleszkedni és továbblépni, miközben a szülei emlékét is életben kell tartania azzal, hogy mindenben a tökéletességre törekszik?
A Wattpad-szenzációként induló történet, melyet a kirobbanó sikere a hivatalos kiadásig röpített.

A Little Life
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara is an immensely powerful and heartbreaking novel of brotherly love and the limits of human endurance.
When four graduates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their centre of gravity. Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome - but that will define his life forever.

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
A Sunday Times-bestselling, award-nominated genre-defying tour-de-force of Faustian bargains, for fans of The Time Traveler’s Wife and Life After Life, and The Sudden Appearance of Hope.
When Addie La Rue makes a pact with the devil, she is convinced she’s found a loophole?immortality in exchange for her soul. But the devil takes away her place in the world, cursing her to be forgotten by everyone.
Addie flees her tiny home town in 18th-Century France, beginning a journey that takes her across the world, learning to live a life where no one remembers her and everything she owns is lost and broken. Existing only as a muse for artists throughout history, she learns to fall in love anew every single day.
Her only companion on this journey is her dark devil with hypnotic green eyes, who visits her each year on the anniversary of their deal. Alone in the world, Addie has no choice but to confront him, to understand him, maybe to beat him.
Until one day, in a second hand bookshop in Manhattan, Addie meets someone who remembers her. Suddenly thrust back into a real, normal life, Addie realises she can’t escape her fate forever.
