Famous For My Dinner Parties Magazine
€10.00
famous for my dinner parties is back for issue 003! After the ‘best-of’ character of issue 001 and the mono-themed ‘food fad issue’ 002, number three is again somewhat more loosely conceived — less of a theme issue than a concept zine that aims to tap into certain elements of the zeitgeist. It consists of ten brand-new pieces in the form of essays, compilations of shorts, a still life series and even fiction — all circling around the anxieties of being alive in the world today and the way they reflect in what and how we eat. With pieces on chef culture, food diplomacy, paranoia about food safety, microwaves, internet urban legends and food crimes, the magazine’s graphic design takes cues from tabloid newspapers to fit the salaciousness and scandal-ridden character of its topics. Issue 003 is famous for my dinner parties’ signature blend of cultural criticism and bold, vibrant imagery at its best.
This issue is size A5.

How to Overcome Your Childhood Book
€14.00
We don’t have to remain prisoners of the past, but in order to liberate ourselves from our histories we must first become fully aware of them.
How to overcome your childhood is an English book by The School of Life about such a liberation. We learn about how character is developed, the concept of ‘emotional inheritance’, the formation of our concepts of being ‘good’ or ‘bad’ and the impact of parental styles of love on the way we choose adult partners. We learn too about how we might evolve emotionally and, in particular, how we may sometimes need to have a breakdown in order to have a breakthrough.
We are left with a powerful sense that building up an emotionally successful adult life is possible so long as we reflect with sufficient imagination and compassion on what happened to us a long while back.
Topics Include:
- Emotional Inheritance – How emotional problems are handed down from parent to child
- The Golden Child Syndrome – How too much love from our parents can be just as damaging as too little
- Over-Achievement – How we compensate for emotional neglect through worldly success
- Splitting – How we fail to reconcile between the good and bad aspects of our parents
- Soothing – How we still require the kinds of affection we received as children
- Becoming an Adult – How recognising our immaturity is the key to growth
