Sasha Martin placed herself a fairly ambitious goal: to prepare - and eat - her way surrounding the world, with 196 quality recipes from 196 countries in 196 weeks. Enter Global Table Adventure, a task that proves to be more than just a culinary problem as Sasha endeavors to get around the vicissitudes of matrimony, motherhood, and life's failures and successes, all inextricably associated with her troubled history. For Sasha food and cooking unlock the thoughts of a hard childhood and the loss and heartbreak that was included with it. She and her brother lived with their mother in Boston before being put in foster treatment with a family group in Europe. Among the hard occasions of her young life, the most challenging happened when Sasha was just 12 years old - she observed her brother's suicide. As she mines her history to seem sensible of her childhood, food allows Sasha to find her own place in the globe - and create the home she has been craving her whole life. This is a tale about food from around the globe but also about how precisely food can convert us, about being a mother and a better half, about loving the globe, and about understanding how to love ourselves.
