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. \u003ci\u003eThe Language of Baklava\u003c\/i\u003e irresistibly invites 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anchor Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/14\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400077762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.96h x 5.40w x 0.77d","brand":"Diana Abu-Jaber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42917122408629,"sku":"9781400077762","price":18.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_1fce111c-4bf0-4ee8-9195-9201d12b634e.jpg?v=1687278081","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-language-of-baklava-a-memoir-9781400077762","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
