What's Cooking in the Kremlin: A Modern History of Russia Through the Kitchen Do

Description: What's Cooking in the Kremlin by Witold Szablowski, Antonia Lloyd-Jones Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A history of Russia in the twentieth century unlike any other - from the Russian revolution to the oligarchs of the 90s, via the Holodomor, the siege of Leningrad and Chernobyl. Whats Cooking in the Kremlin is a tale of feast and famine told from the kitchen, the narrative of one of the most complex, troubling and fascinating nations on earth. We will travel through Putins Russia with acclaimed author Witold Szablowski as he learns the story of the chef who was shot alongside the Romonovs, and the Ukrainian woman who survived the Great Famine created by Stalin and still weeps with guilt; the soldiers on the Eastern front who roasted snails and made nettle soup as they fought back Hitlers army; the woman who cooked for Yuri Gagarin and the cosmonauts; and the man who ran the Kremlin kitchen during the years of plenty under Brezhnev. We will hear from the women who fed the firefighters at Chernobyl, and the story of the Crimean Tatars, who returned to their homeland after decades of exile, only to flee once Russia invaded Crimea again, in 2014. In tracking down these remarkable stories and voices, Witold Szablowski has written an account of modern Russia unlike any other – a book that reminds us of the human stories behind the history.
