Описание: It is hoped that even those fleeing oppression would follow a legal process to enter the USA. However, for some, that process takes too long, and they will find ways to enter by illegal means. Among those is ambitious 18-year-old Raul Manigot fleeing the oppression of a despotic regime defined by corruption. Coerced into silence, he is unable to express his opinions even on things apolitical, and wants to live free of the system that inhibits his development. Finding protection in the church, Raul vents his frustration to the village priest on matters of religion, and expresses his desire to be in America. The desire to live free is a powerful stimulus that will move people to do the unimaginable to breathe free. Raul lacks the patience to pursue legal entry to the United States. So he stows way on an American-owned, Bahamian-flagged merchant ship, well aware of the dangers faced by those of his race who had taken such a chance on European ships. Lucky for him, he meets friendly deckhands on the ship, who get him off in Puerto Rico. There he meets a Midwestern farmer, who had no trouble getting him on a plane to New York. In time, he falls in love with and marries a beautiful young woman, the daughter of a Protestant minister. As the years wore on, the young couple, with their two sons, lives a comfortable middle-class life. The fear of Immigration catching up to Raul, a daily reminder that his life in America lacks permanence, is now a think of the past.

Описание: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the chef behind Momofuku and star of Netflix's Ugly Delicious--an intimate account of the making of a chef, the story of the modern restaurant world that he helped shape, and how he discovered that success can be much harder to understand than failure."David puts words to so many of the things we all feel, sharing generously of his own journey so we can all benefit in the process."--Chrissy Teigen
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR - Fortune - Parade - The New York Public Library - Garden & Gun In 2004, Momofuku Noodle Bar opened in a tiny, stark space in Manhattan's East Village. Its young chef-owner, David Chang, worked the line, serving ramen and pork buns to a mix of fellow restaurant cooks and confused diners whose idea of ramen was instant noodles in Styrofoam cups. It would have been impossible to know it at the time--and certainly Chang would have bet against himself--but he, who had failed at almost every endeavor in his life, was about to become one of the most influential chefs of his generation, driven by the question, "What if the underground could become the mainstream?" Chang grew up the youngest son of a deeply religious Korean American family in Virginia. Graduating college aimless and depressed, he fled the States for Japan, hoping to find some sense of belonging. While teaching English in a backwater town, he experienced the highs of his first full-blown manic episode, and began to think that the cooking and sharing of food could give him both purpose and agency in his life. Full of grace, candor, grit, and humor, Eat a Peach chronicles Chang's switchback path. He lays bare his mistakes and wonders about his extraordinary luck as he recounts the improbable series of events that led him to the top of his profession. He wrestles with his lifelong feelings of otherness and inadequacy, explores the mental illness that almost killed him, and finds hope in the shared value of deliciousness. Along the way, Chang gives us a penetrating look at restaurant life, in which he balances his deep love for the kitchen with unflinching honesty about the industry's history of brutishness and its uncertain future.
