Description
The Monk of Mokha is a gripping true story of a young Yemeni American man's quest to revive the ancient art of Yemeni coffee. Raised in San Francisco, Mokhtar Alkhanshali becomes fascinated with the rich history of coffee and Yemen's central place in it. He embarks on a journey to tour the country's rugged mountains, collecting samples and organizing farmers in his quest to succeed. As Mokhtar's dreams seem within reach, civil war erupts, forcing him to find a way out of Yemen with only his hopes on his back. This courageous and visionary young man's story is a testament to the power of the human spirit in the face of adversity. Dave Eggers' masterful writing brings this extraordinary true story to life, offering a powerful exploration of the American dream and its relevance in today's world.
