Mixing bold journalism with bolder allegories, Mr Szablowski
teaches us with witty persistence that we must desire freedom
rather than simply expect it Timothy Snyder, New York Times
bestselling author of ON TYRANNY A devastatingly original look at
the world's worst dictators, through the eyes of their personal
chefs, by award-winning Polish author Witold Szablowski. What is it
like to cook for the most dangerous men in the world? In this
darkly funny and fascinating book, Witold Szablowski travels across
four continents in search of the personal chefs of five dictators.
From the savannahs of Kenya to the faded glamour of Havana, and the
bombed-out streets of Baghdad, Szablowski finds the men and women
who cooked fish soup for Saddam Hussein, roasted goat for Idi Amin
and chopped papaya salad for Pol Pot. He reveals the strangeness of
a job where a single culinary mistake could be fatal, but a
well-seasoned dish could change your life. And in doing so, he
lifts the veil on what life is like at the very heart of power.
