Seattle native Jeff Koehler, whose writing, recipes, and photographs have been seen in Tin House, Food and Wine, Saveur, and many other places, travels to Elliott Bay from his home in Barcelona today to discuss his new book on the cuisines of Morocco, Algeria, Greece, Turkey, Italy, and more. His book, Rice Pasta Couscous: The Heart of the Mediterranean Kitchen (Chronicle) explores the roots, histories, and preparation of three traditional staple foods that form the foundations of these cuisines. Jeff Koehler is also author of La Paella, and his photographs illustrate The Pike Place Market Seafood Cookbook, written by Braden Rex-Johnson.

Publisher and editor of the nonfiction magazine Morbid Curiosity from 1997 to 2006, Loren Rhoads has been a cemetery columnist for Gothic.Net, and is here with a delectable anthology of writings from her old 'zine, Morbid Curiosity Cures the Blues: True Stories of the Unsavory, Unwise, Unorthodox, and Unusual (Scribner). "A confessional where Americans reveal their deepest, darkest secrets ... It was also frequently gross, disquieting, perverse—and very funny if you prefer your humor to come in a decidedly dark hue." - The Washington Post. "It's like a Reader's Digest of the dark side." - San Francisco Weekly.
