À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Diana Abu-Jaber's vibrant, humorous memoir weaves together delicious food memories that illuminate the two cultures of her childhood-American and Jordanian. Here are stories of being raised by a food-obsessed Jordanian father and tales of Lake Ontario shish kabob cookouts and goat stew feasts under Bedouin tents in the desert. These sensuously evoked repasts, complete with recipes, paint a loving and complex portrait of Diana's impractical, displaced immigrant father who, like many an immigrant before him, cooked to remember the place he came from and to pass that connection on to his children. The Language of Baklava irresistiblyinvites us to sit down at the table with Diana's family, sharing unforgettable meals that turn out to be as much about "grace, difference, faith, love" as they are about food.

Avis les plus pertinents

  • The Language of Baklava is another word for yummy

    I was first introduced to Diana Abu-Jaber's work through her moving and wonderful novel, "Crescent". The Language of Baklava is very moving and echoes the experience of fellow immigrants to America and the love of our native cuisines as well as the need to integrate these into a new country. This is my second copy of Diana's wonderful memoir. I lent my first copy to a friend and never got it back, they liked it so much. I love the recipes she incorporated and have made nearly every one of the them. I would recommend this book for the recipes as much as the story and her marvelous storytelling ability.

  • A short description

    There are 3 releases of this book. I am giving the same review for all. The author recalls her early life in upstate New York with an American mother and Jordanian father, whose bouts of homesickness for Jordan often had the family returning there for periods of time. Along with her reminiscences, Abu-Jaber includes recipes for many of the dishes she describes in the book.
