Cómo alimentar a un dictador
Sadam Huseín, Idi Amin, Enver Hoxha, Fidel Castro y Pol Pot a través de los ojos de sus cocineros
Szablowski, Witold
What menu was Pol Pot eating while two million Cambodians were starving? Did Idi Amin really eat human flesh? And why was Fidel Castro obsessed with a dairy cow? This is a journey across four continents. From the ruins of Iraq to the savannas of Kenya, Witold Szablowski in this book tracks the personal chefs of five dictators known for oppressing and massacring their own citizens: Saddam Hussein of Iraq; Idi Amin from Uganda; Enver Hoxha, from Albania; Fidel Castro, from Cuba and Pol Pot, from Cambodia. These cooks tell stories about sweet and sour soup, goat meat pilaf, bottles of rum, and sets of Gin rummy. The present volume is a deliciously readable and very serious dish. How to Feed a Dictator provides a glimpse, cut with the edge of a kitchen knife, of life under tyranny.
