Born in Baghdad, Linda Dangoor explores the meaning of home, memory, and belonging through the language of food. Her latest book is part memoir and part cookbook-a rich tapestry of recipes and personal reflections tracing her Baghdadi heritage and the journey of a culinary tradition across generations and geographies.

Esther Chehebar, author of the acclaimed novel Sisters of Fortune and a regular contributor to Tablet Magazine on Syrian Jewish culture and tradition, will sit down with Linda for a conversation about food as a keeper of memory, the experience of leaving one home and creating another, and the ways recipes can preserve family and cultural identity.
