''Object Lessons'' is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. ''Recipe'' reveals the surprising lessons that recipes teach, in addition to the obvious instructions on how to prepare a dish or perform a process. These include lessons in hospitality, friendship, community, family and ethnic heritage, tradition, nutrition, precision and order, invention and improvisation, feasting and famine, survival and seduction and love. A recipe is a signature, as individual as the cook's fingerprint; a passport to travel the world without leaving the kitchen; a lifeline for people in hunger and in want; and always a means to expand one's worldview, if not waistline.

The Emigrants is composed of four long narratives which at first appear to be the straightforward accounts of the lives of several Jewish exiles in England, Austria, and America. The narrator literally follows their footsteps, studding each story with photographs and creating the impression that the reader is poring over a family album. But gradually, Sebald's prose, which combines documentary description with almost hallucinatory fiction, exerts a new magic, and the four stories merge into one. Illustrated throughout with enigmatic photographs.

The "Glas House," as the Rezek family called their home, is a quintessential example of modern architecture and the associated philosophy of living in 1930s Vienna. Viennese architect Hans Glas (1892–1969), a student of Adolf Loos, has today largely fallen into oblivion in Austria. "The Glas House" describes the Villa Rezek in detail, illustrated with numerous historical and new photographs by Stefan Oláh, plans, and historic documents.
