Описание : • Born in Syracuse, New York, as an Arab-Palestinian member of the Arab diaspora in the US.
• She spent some time in Amman, Jordan (her father’s birthplace)
• She likewise confesses that “my [American] mother [of German, European descent] has taught me […] how to listen to stories. She made a space in our home for my father to invent himself…”
• Diasporal self-location of second-generation migrants is often semi-fictional (through memories, stories, dreams)
• Abu-Jaber works include: Arabian Jazz, Origin, Birds of Paradise, and two memoirs, The Language of Baklava and Life without a Recipe.
• The role of story-telling and cooking: major tools of cross-cultural interaction in the novel.
