Be My Guest: Reflections on Food, Community and the Meaning of Generosity Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

‘A courageous and beautiful exploration into meals, race, memory space and the very meaning of existence. I go through it greedily – and so will you’ Meera Sodha, writer of Fresh India

The dinner table, among friends, is where in fact the best conversations take place – discuss the world, religion, politics, culture, love and cooking. Just as, Be My Guest is a discussion about each one of these issues, mediated through the writing of food. We live in a global where some possess too much while others not enough, where migrants and refugees are both welcomed and vilified, and where most of us spend less and much less time cooking and eating jointly. Priya Basil explores the meaning and limits of hospitality today, and in doing so she invites us to consider that how much we have in keeping may depend on what we should are willing to share.
