Story
A revealing personal story and family memoir told through meals and recipes, Savage Feast begins with Boris’s childhood in Soviet Belarus, where good food was often worth more than money. He describes the unlikely dish that brought his parents together and how years of Holocaust hunger left his grandmother so obsessed with bread that she always kept five loaves on hand. She was the stove magician and Boris’ grandfather the master black marketer who supplied her, evading at least one firing squad on the way.

Story
"That's What I Thought" is a coming-of-age memoir that transports listeners to a simpler time. Back to childhood, where lifelong bonds were forged with family, friends, and neighbors and where a foundation of values was built that lasts a lifetime. Set in rural southeastern Kentucky in the 1960's, it captures the nostalgia and charm of small town living through the eyes of the narrator. Growing up in a rural area in the 1960's was a remarkable experience that will be lost if not put to paper.

Sarfraz Manzoor was two years old when, in 1974, he emigrated from Pakistan to Britain with his mother, brother, and sister. Sarfraz spent his teenage years in a constant battle, trying to reconcile being both British and Muslim, trying to fit in at school and at home. But it was when his best friend introduced him to the music of Bruce Springsteen that his life changed completely. Both a tribute to Springsteen and a story of personal discovery, Greetings from Bury Park is a warm, irreverent, and exceptionally perceptive memoir about how music transcends religion and race.
