520    "EXPLORING THE CONNECTION OF FOOD AND CULTURE The Syrian 
       kitchen, shaped by influences from neighboring countries, 
       has deep historical roots and evolved to perfection over 
       thousands of years. Sumac is filled with traditional and 
       contemporary Syrian recipes that were inspired by personal
       stories. The gorgeous photography illustrates how 
       beautiful this country was and still is, and family 
       photographs add depth to the author's history. Each 
       chapter is filled with the author's memories of family 
       celebrations and the country that inspired the book. He 
       tells stories of traditional weekend breakfasts in his 
       grandmother's garden and of the mezze his mother cooked 
       for family gatherings. There are memories of the rich 
       aromatic flavors of the Syrian kitchen where fragrant 
       spices like the lemony and deep red sumac are prized 
       ingredients. In the author's words: "With this book, I 
       hope to build a bridge between Syrian culture and the rest
       of the world, with food the common denominator. But even 
       more, I hope that Sumac will present a positive image of 
       my country, in spite of all the unfortunate events now 
       taking place in Syria." Over eighty recipes, inspired by 
       the author's family recipes and his travels. Beautifully 
       photographed by Rania Kataf, who shot Humans of Damascus 
       For anybody curious about a country so often in the news 
       headlines but so difficult to visit as a tourist"--
