El autor de El Círculo vuelve con la increíble historia verdadera de Mokhtar Alkhanshali, un joven norteamericano de origen yemení que regresó a su país para recuperar el cultivo ancestral del café y se vio atrapado en una guerra civil.

Mokhtar Alkhanshali, hijo de inmigrantes yemeníes, ha crecido en el barrio más conflictivo de San Francisco y a sus veinticuatro años es incapaz de pagarse la universidad. Mientras trabaja de portero en un bloque de pisos de lujo, descubre que el café, al igual que él, tiene su origen en Yemen, por lo que decide investigar la historia y la producción de esta antiquísima bebida viajando al país de sus antepasados. En las montañas más remotas del Yemen este joven norteamericano visita a los caficultores y los escasos cafetales para encontrar las mejores bayas y exportarlas a Estados Unidos, pero la guerra civil estalla y las puertas del país se cierran convirtiendo su regreso en una aventura extremadamente arriesgada.

Dave Eggers firma esta inspiradora historia real sobre un valiente emprendedor que soñó con resucitar el arte ancestral del café en su país. A través de una exhaustiva investigación, Eggers nos invita a ser conscientes de lo que significa ser musulmán en Occidente y rompe una lanza a favor de la necesidad de tender puentes entre culturas. El monje de Moka es un relato de superación, una crónica bélica pero también un recorrido por la historia y el origen de esta popular bebida, así como por el cultivo, la recolección y el procesado del café de alta calidad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Monk of Mokha is the exhilarating true story of a young Yemeni American man, raised in San Francisco, who dreams of resurrecting the ancient art of Yemeni coffee but finds himself trapped in Sana'a by civil war.

Mokhtar Alkhanshali is twenty-four and working as a doorman when he discovers the astonishing history of coffee and Yemen's central place in it. He leaves San Francisco and travels deep into his ancestral homeland to tour terraced farms high in the country's rugged mountains and meet beleagured but determined farmers. But when war engulfs the country and Saudi bombs rain down, Mokhtar has to find a way out of Yemen without sacrificing his dreams or abandoning his people.

Weird pockets
Size: Medium, Color: Brown
It was a nice coat but the fabric was shimmery and the front pockets were very high. It was very awkward looking. Overall it was nice fabric and a good length but the pockets and the shimmer made it a return for us.

Men’s pea coat
A great price for a great coat. My husband loved this coat fits perfectly not too small not too big just right. I would highly recommend buying it for a gift. The color was a deep black, very beautiful.

Really nice looking and Fits to Size

My husband loves this, it’s a super nice looking coat. It did come pretty wrinkled out of the bag, you need a good steamer.
