The Evin Prison Bakers' Club: Surviving Iran's Most Notorious Prisons in 16 Recipes
Description
In the heart of Iran's most notorious prison, Evin, a group of political prisoners found an unlikely source of solace and resistance: baking. This powerful memoir weaves together harrowing accounts of imprisonment with the simple, yet profound, act of creating bread and pastries. Through shared recipes and stolen moments of culinary creation, these women forged bonds of solidarity and preserved their humanity in the face of unimaginable oppression. It's a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of hope, even in the darkest of circumstances.
