Focusing on the cuisine of these lesser known Slavic people, author Alexander Bely brings readers a sample of nearly two hundred Belarusian recipes such as Herring Fried in Batter, Simplest Babka, and Leavened Slizhyki, among other fine recipes.
As we see in her award-winning China series, East Wind West Wind (2004), and her Give Me Your Image (2005) European jaunt, Van Manen's brief here is rather to part the iconographic veil that habitually clouds Western perspectives of the Slavic peoples and their historic travails, emphasizing individual heroism and resourcefulness over exotic scenes or local wonders.
She first describes who Slavic people are, where they came from, and briefly the history they have gone through.
