Book Description
When fashion columnist Lacey Smithsonian learns that a new fashion museum will soon grace decidedly unfashionable D.C., it's more than a good story-it's a chance to show off her vintage Hugh Bentley suit. And it's not long before the dapper designer himself spots Lacey in the crowd. A reporter at heart, she manages to get all the juicy details about his past-including a long-unsolved mystery about a missing employee. Could it be linked to the disappearance of a Washington intern or the recent Bentley boutique robbery? Lacey sets out to unravel the murderous details in a fabric of lies, greed-and (gasp!) very bad taste...

well written and entertaining.......2007-07-15
I debated between 4 and 5 stars, but really, I can't think of anything to complain about in "Designer Knockoff", so 5 stars it is. Lacey Smithsonian is an appealing heroine and the supporting characters are interesting and nicely developed (though characters introduced in the first book in the series don't get a re-hash, so it may not feel as if they are developed if you didn't read book one). The plot is good, not too unbelievable, and Lacey's world comes across as real and appealing with humor generously sprinkled in. The writing is good, no weak editing that could throw the reader off stride. Lacey seems like a happy, well-adjusted woman, not overly neurotic and she doesn't do things that you have to suspend disbelief to accept as a natural part of her life and the story. Highly recommended for an entertaining read.
More then clothes were being knocked off. . ........2006-07-05
I really enjoyed the first book, and found the second book, "Designer Knockoff" to be a great follow up.
The plot this time revolves around Hugh "the Bastard" Bentley, America's premiere fashion designer who is pushing for a Fashion Museum with some funding from Congress. Throw in an ambitious, missing Congressional Intern with dreams of being the next "Bentley Girl" model and you have an intriguing mystery with contemporary overtones.
Added to the mix is a "Bentley" original from Lacey's Aunt Mimi's trunk, which also yields dress patterns and designs from Aunt Mimi's friend, Gloria, who worked for Bentley during WWII, but disappeared suddenly and mysteriously. Lacey becomes curious about her Aunt Mimi's relationship with Hugh Bentley, especially why her Aunt started calling him, Hugh "the Bastard" Bentley.
While pursuing a story about a robbery at one of the Bentley stores to help Stella's friend, Miguel, Lacey's starts finding clues to the missing Intern and begins to uncover the Bentley family's dirty little secrets.
The mystery ends with Lacey showing up in one of Gloria's designs at the ball for the Bentley Fashion museum, where in a dramatic showdown she learns who really designed the first Bentley couture line. Lacey having caught the Interns killer, uncovers what happen to Aunt Mimi's friend Gloria, with the help of Bentley's nephew.
This novel introduces another man to compete for Lacey's affection, Jeffrey Bentley Holmes, Hugh Bentley's nephew. An interesting man, who is coming to grips with being a member of a powerful family that has no conscious, while he has a strong one. Tony, Lacey's co-worker, hovers pleasently in the background as another potential suitor. Vic Donovan still dominates the scene with Lacey, despite not being the most considerate of males.
Another enjoyable aspect of the series is the further development of the supporting characters. It is Stella who introduces Lacey to Miguel. Lacey's friend and conspiracy theory junkie, Brooke, finds romance with Damon, who runs the DeadFed website. Damon introduces Lacey to TurtleDove, a security agent. Turtledove helps move precious Aunt Mimi's trunk out of her apartment, when Lacey realizes someone will kill to get to the letters and patterns from Gloria it contains.
Justice is not served in the end, since the Bentley's are rich and powerful enough to prevent that, which unfortunately is a reality in most real life cases involving people in their position.
Another great and enjoyable read. This is a fun series.
Fun........2006-01-30
The story is pretty well written, the characters are intelligent and sassy.
This is a fun light read. Definitly worth a few hours of your time if you like light mysteries.
Another Great Mystery.......2005-04-23
This was another Crime of Fashion Mystery, and was just as satisfying as the first installment. The writing is witty and fun, the character of Lacey Smithsonian is well-drawn, and the supporting cast of characters adds a lot to the book. The mystery/death is linked to Lacey's past as well, and I found that historical element - particualrly about 40s fashions - made the book even more enjoyable. Looking forward to the next book...
Great Second Book by Ellen Byerrum.......2005-04-15
I loved her first book and couldn't wait to find out where her Fashion Clues took her this time. It was a enjoyable read. I can't wait for the next book in the series that comes out August 2005.

Super Reader.......2007-08-02
Conan the Magnificent is actually quite a reasonable pastiche. The barbarian runs into a female thief, who bests him before he realises.
Getting into more trouble, he has to leave Shadizar for a while, where he encounters a female noblewoman who likes to hunt with a small retinue.
Some others would like her jewels and other treasures lurk, so there is sword swinging to be done, and an evil sorcerer to top it off.

The worst Conan book ever?.......1998-06-26
This was a terrible Conan book. When I read Conan, I want and expect blood, death, gore and sex. This book had none of those. If you like Conan, don't read this drivel.

Wizards to kill, women to save........2007-06-08
This is a collection of three Conan books by Jordan that were originally published in the early 1980's. Jordan does a fair job of representing one of the all-time-favorite sword and sorcery heroes, portraying him as the hard, no-nonsense, lover of gold and women that Robert E. Howard introduced so long ago. These stories are nothing like Jordan's later work with the epic Wheel of Time series, but they are not meant to be. The Conan Chronicles are fast-paced, exciting, simple, and predictable, a guilty pleasure for lovers of old-school fantasy. All three books involve evil wizards bent on obtaining power at the cost to the masses, and in all three Conan finds himself in a to-the-death battle with said wizards. One thing that stands out in these books is the blatant stereotypes and cliches that Jordan's characters take on. Wizards are dark and sinister, women are young and beautiful (and usually naked), men are greedy and dirty, and almost everyone is poor and desperate. Oily and unclean Iranistanis, and sneaky and deadly assassins (ninjas) from the far-east were particularly amusing to me.
The first book, Conan the Invincible, tells of Conan accepting a job that turns out to be more than he expected. A strange wizard pays him to steal some jewels from the king of Zamora, but somebody beats him to it. As he tracks the thieves, he encounters a number of interesting characters that'll show up in following novels, including Hordo and Karela. Evil wizards and snake men pose quite a challenge to the young Conan, but nothing he can't handle.
In Conan The Defender (Conan), our hero finds himself embroiled in a plot to overthrow the king of Nemedia. Lots of double dealing and behind-the-scene scheming make this one read almost like a mystery, with Conan playing the part of the detective. Once again, the antagonist is a dark and evil sorcerer with aims on the throne, and once again Conan cleaves through his enemies like a hot knife through butter. Hordo and Karela reappear here to aid (or hinder?) Conan in his goals. Compared to the first book, this one was more enjoyable to me, with a slightly more complex plot and with the characters becoming better developed.
The third book, Conan the Unconquered (Conan), is my personal favorite. In this tale Conan finds himself traveling to distant lands to search for the means to slay a necromancer heading the 'Cult of the Doomed'. The pace is very quick and the overall plot is better developed than the first two books. The opposition to Conan and the dangers he faces seem more deadly and his new traveling companions add flavor to this one.
All three books are enjoyable and simple. If you come for the right reasons (pure shallow entertainment) you'll be pleased.
ok, not a Jordan masterpiece, but good........2007-02-24
Delivered quickly, as advertised quality. This is a book that is a compilation of three books. It is fairly good, and consistent with the other story lines.
Hatest thou o' insufferable bores.......2007-01-31
I think o' wise and long winded reviewers that you confuse immature with fun. Is going to the opera of the same intellectual value as riding a roller coaster, of course not. But I know which one I'd rather do. And like a roller coaster, Jordans Conans may share the same basic structure but they're different enough that I have and will ride them all. As for Howard, I've read Howard, more than just his Conans, and call me blasphemer and throw me from your ranks, but I prefer Jordan.
ps. Reviewers, if a book is such a blight to your eyes that you cant find it in yourself to finish it, find it in yourself to not review it.
Hate detest loath abhor despise, you get my drift yet ?.......2006-10-26
well if you haven't to say it was a terrible abomination good for a feebleminded dolt will be the nicest thing i'll ever even utter about this insufferable atrocity.
A disgrace to RJ legacy I could not even finish this this thing the pages are not even worthy to wipe the bottom of a swampy garbage dump / nuclear waste plant!
and I love most books but this excuse for one had the most dumb insufferable woman crazy self obsessed character ever and the other one is a supposable self-sufficient self reliable high standard not man crazy woman who chases the main character
and if that dose not deter you from reading this book then this book had a really predictable unimaginative plots I've seen since -ever!!
one reviewer said its for the younger crowd I beg to differ I really don't think its for a young crowed only an immature crowd.as you have no doubt realized if i could give it ZERO STARS I WOULD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Conan the Slut.......2006-05-23
The Robert Jordan Conan stories are simply horrible. Jordan obviously lacks comprehension of REH's concept, and reduces Conan into an absurd characiture and mockery of what he once was in the original short stories. This misinterpretation isn't just limited to Jordan, but also to efforts like those of L. Sprague De Camp whose "editing" and chronicling of the original short stories likely made it popular to manipulate, if not outright exploit, REH's works (though credit acknowledged these efforts at least brought REH's work into the public decades after REH's death). There are many problems with Jordan's Conan (not limited to the stories in this edition)-first is Conan being too sophisticated for his alledged age during the stories, often described as being "not yet twenty", which spoils the credibility. Conan's more appealing as a more raw and naive sort of individual because that's what makes him a barbarian, and which makes him more interesting when he gets into trouble. I simply don't believe the character in Jordan's books can be that able to match wits with the intrigues played by corrupt royals or have the true experience to lead military companies at that age-it's balderdash (most 19 yearolds I knew were dumber than a bag of rocks, myself included). Better an older, maturer individual to believe in. But what I find most offensive is Jordan's chauvinistic sensibilities. The world he depicts is not the verbally sensual one of REH's creation as the insight Jordan provides is ultimately shallow in its sexism (it certainly isn't erotic, sexual attitudes when these stories were written not withstanding): women are all doxies and whores in his Conan stories, they seem never of any other profession and there never seem to be old women, or mothers, or children in the settings of his stories, demonstrating Jordan's lack of imagination in creating a variety of characters. All too often he begins and relies on the physical description of the woman in question to be enough for the reader and will always write about how voluptuous the breasts are, regardless if he already commented on the character's breasts already! And these women are always hanging out in taverns or street corners plying their trade instead of working, depicting a rather dismal view of women in general as being incapable of doing anything else but being screwed; whereas REH would portray them as as more human devices with an actual complex function in the world of Conan, the best being Belit who literally leaps off the page as the most vivid, passionate character that's easy to believe in because she's truly fantastic, while Karela is just obnoxious and overused (there's a story in which she tries to kill Conan and ends up having sex with him which comes off as just stupid + there's a scene in which she and her band of cronies get in a fight and she'd naked the whole time). And just as worse is Conan who really comes off as a slut as on average he's depicted as bedding on average 2 different women in any given story (with each tryst ending a chapter in a ludicrously predictable way). Conan is reduced by this as being a mere fornicator, and not the complex man he's supposed to be with "gigantic mirth AND melancholy", qualities wofully missing from Jordan's depiction. Occasionally Jordan's Conan exhibits so moral issues, but they always seem awkward and fake (like in one story where Conan worries about an underage girl becoming a doxy herself). Apart from the mangling of Conan' character, the actual writing is formulmatic: Each story starts with a prologue with a scheming sorcerer or royal about to use mysical means to acquire more power (nearly always sacrificing some nude "chit" of a girl-Jordan's descrition not mine); Conan is usually first met in a tavern and always gets into a fight before the end of a chapter (and always flirts or more with the aformentioned doxy); if Conan gets in with another bunch of rogues, there's always one guy who despises Conan and always dies for it later, usually by Conan's hand. Again after reading Jordan's Conan stories it becomes painfully evident how throwaway these pastiches truly are and one wonder if anyone can write the character outside of REH himself (the comics have been all right-Roy Thomas from Marvel was more respectful I think of the character, and Kurt Busiek doing the Dark Horse series just as much, but Busiek also has difficulty with Conan's sophistication during his early adventurous period). Conan works best as a short story character I think (though REH did write some excellant Conan novels that don't lack in pace)when he gets dropped into a situation and merely touches upon some (often gruesome) insight into the world he lives in. Remember a peer of REH was HP Lovecraft whose stories of cosmic horror hinted at a world beyond our own, something every REH story in some way did. The Jordan stories NEVER do this: they merely drop obstacles into Conan's way (here a demon, here a soldier) to cleve out of his way without a thought, whereas such things as meeting an elephant god or solving a murder in a closed room or finding an ape dressed as a king upon a throne are incidents that would provide any soul who experiences them lessons that would lead to better destinies than acting whorish. Best to read REH's original stories recently collected in new trades, restored in their original glory where the true Conan treads the jeweled kingdoms of the earth beneath his sandled feet.

An Omelette and a Glass of Wine, by Elizabeth David, is one of the first books that the Lyons Press (formerly Lyons and Burford) published as part of the Cook's Classic Library series. It offers 62 articles written by David between 1955 and 1984 for a variety of publications. Many of these pieces, such as "I'll Be with You in the Squeezing of a Lemon," from 1969--about cooking with lemons--barely show their age. But even if they did, you wouldn't care, because of the rich store of information that David shares and the literary grace with which she imparts it.
"Foods of Legend" is a choice example. This essay is astonishingly timely in its discourse on a chef feeling compelled to elevate a humble country dish into haute cuisine. David bases her story on Master Chef August Escoffier's recomposition, over a century ago, of a Provençal favorite: potatoes baked with artichokes onto Carré d'Agneau Mistral, which involved adding truffles and rack of lamb.
Some articles include recipes, but for the most part this is a volume nicely sized to curl up with or to take on a trip.
Book Description
Contains delightful explorations of food and cooking, among which are the collection's namesake essay and many other gems; with black-and-white photographs and illustrations.

50 years of enjoying Elizabeth David.......2007-09-27
My mother introduced me to the wonders of Elizabeth David 50 years ago! In her English country kitchen, with all the rigors of post-war shortages, she would pore over Elizabeth David's mediterranean recipes. In those days the basic ingredients available in a small village didn't extend to much more than carrots and potatoes. But David's recipes would inspire my mother's creativity, and we would eat the most amazing dishes, with the ingredients adapted to what could be unearthed in the village shop. Now, so many years later, this compendium of articles brings back vividly that - for me - happy time. It is a book to pick up, dip into, take note of her suggestions, try out the recipes. It transports you to France and back again, it gives sensible advice, brings a mixture of common sense and fantasy to the chaos which is modern living today. And yes, an omelette and a glass of wine (or two, as Elizabeth David so sensibly says) is my favorite meal! Thank you.
In love. :-).......2007-03-23
I've always been scared to buy ED's books.
Why? Because most reviewers go out of their way to point out how intelligent she is (true), how ruthless she is in terms of staying authentic, how she fills her books with references to obscure and elite sources. She always seems to be described as less approachable then most food-writers, with a sharp wit and an even sharper tongue.
To that I say...
*NONSENSE!*
She's not an elite-writer, she's simply a very smart woman with a deep love for food. She doesn't seem rigid or overly strict with her recipies at all. She just seems like a lovely entertaining expert on all things edible, explaining why things taste better when prepared a certain way, making you ponder the truth in what she writes, and making you realise she's telling you things you should have already figured out on your own. She's a teacher, but a very loving one. Elegant without being prissy, experienced and willing to share.
I wish I had bought this book much earlier. It's filled with wonderful essays, thoughts and descriptions. It made me hungry and happy at the same time! If you like a book with more substance then just a HUGE index of 10.000 recipies -like some cookbooks are- then this is perfect.
A SELECTION OF ED'S JOURNALISTIC WORK........2006-08-10
318 high quality pages casually interspersed with charming black and white illustrations and some photographs, this book is sure to appeal to the 'Elizabeth David' book collector.
REAR COVER QUOTE from JANE GRIGSON:-
"Every time we begin to feel fussed by the cookery elaborators with their flashy tricks and colour photos, we can restore confidence by returning to Elizabeth David."
From Artemis Cooper's 'Writing at the Kitchen Table', pg 307 - 'An Omelette and a Glass of Wine' delighted Elizabeth's legion of fans. Jane Grigson praised it for including all the dishes most closely associated with her, Spiced Beef, Salted Welsh Duck and Syllabub.
'Here for the first time is a selection of ED's journalistic work written for a wide range of publications.
Articles, book reviews and travel pieces, they will be new to many of her readers and a delight to all for their highly personal flavour.
Her subjects range from the story of how her own cookery writing
began to accounts of some restaurants in provincial France, of white truffles in Piedmont, wild risottos on the islands of the Venetian lagoon and odd happenings during rain-drenched seaside holidays in the British Isles.
Here we can share the ED appreciation of books, people who influenced her, places she loved and the delicious meals she enjoyed. She writes so vividly that we can see, taste and even smell the dishes she describes.
pgs 50-51 '......everyone knows that the success of omelette-making starts with the pan and not with the genius of the cook.......As to the omelette itself, it seems to me to be a confection which demands the most straightforward approach.
What one wants is the taste of fresh eggs and fresh butter and visually a soft, bright golden roll plump, spilling out a little at the edges. It should not be a busy, important urban dish but something gentle and pastoral.........And although there are those who maintain that wine and egg dishes don't go together, I must say I do regard a glass or two of wine as, not obviously, essential - but at least as an enormous enhancement of the enjoyment of a well-cooked omelette........
.......But we are not in any case considering the 'great occasion' menu but the almost primitive and elemental meal evoked by the words:-
'Let's just have an omelette and a glass of wine.'
entertaining, yet slightly dated now.......2003-01-22
Elizabeth David's "An Omelette and a Glass of Wine" is an entertaining read for foodies, although, containing some essays she wrote during the 1950s, it has a slightly dated feeling. The section on "potted meats" belongs in that category, as do the food market and restaurant prices she lists in many of the pieces.
You will find here David's writing about Mediterranean cooking which established her as an authority, and which opened up traditional British-style "cookery" with a new emphasis on simple, fresh ingredients. Included throughout the book are essays on presentation with continental flair, which can add to the enjoyment of meals.
"Mrs. Beeton," the guide for English cooks and household managers for nearly a hundred years, had been viewed by many as an elderly lady in a starched-stiff, black dress who dispensed advice on the "proper" way to cook. In David's book, she presents the real Mrs. Beeton-- a young matron in her twenties, brisk, practical and innovative.
You may not feel inspired to try all the recipes David brings to us, but you will be intrigued by her enthusiastic style and her chatty British approach.
A tour down memory lane............2001-05-18
This is my first Elizabeth David book, and I intend to read many more. I've been a fan of M.F.K. Fisher for many years and read and enjoyed her books thoroughly. David's writing is somewhat similar--though not as personal--at least AN OMELETTE AND A GLASS OF WINE is not terribly personal. Still, David shares many aspects of her work and travel that allowed me to feel connected to her in a personal way.
David was hired to write food/cooking/dining articles for various print media and paid very little initially. Her job involved traveling in France and Italy, visiting various inns and restaurants and markets--which she apparently enjoyed. I started to title my review "born to late" as I would have liked her job. Europe in the 1960s--especially France and Italy must have been wonderful (well my husband says it was and he lived there then). Imagine eating French cooking for a living!! Ah yes, another vicarious reading experience.
David tells of her travels to "job" locations--why I think this book is part travelog. Sometimes she has been preceded by Henry James or Marcel Proust, but most often by some obscure person who passed through in the mid-1800s or earlier and recorded their experiences for posterity. David describes the meals she and others have eaten, as well as food preparation (growing, transporting, cooking). Her book includes photographs of a few famous chefs. In most she cases provides information about recipes and lists ingredients--details that might help the reader replicate a dish. She warns the reader it is impossible to replicate a dish exactly owing to many conditions, not the least of which is the quality of the basic ingredients. She finds it amusing when a recipe is touted as being "old" and includes a modern ingredient like margarine.
Although many of David's recipes are historical and some ingredients can no longer be had, still I am tempted to try and replicate some of them. My knowledge of cooking has been expanded by what I've read. I now know more than I did about cheeses, mushrooms, wines, and other French foods. This little book is enlightening.
I'll store AN OMELETTE AND A GLASS OF WINE with my cookbooks in the kitchen, but it could just as easily be construed as a history/travel book as a cookbook. OMELETTE is filled with anecdotal information about food origins and interesting tidbits. For example, David says the French invented the pizza (it was called pissaladiere) not the Italians. She provides historical evidence Whiskey has been used as a key ingredient in some very upscale dishes. She sets the record straight on Sardines (from the sea near Sardinia) and Syllabub, and the differences between Parmesan and Gruyere--the former Italian and the latter French--but is one really better than the other or are they the same thing? I love this book and I will refer to it over and over.
