The Flavors of My Life

As a tribute to her mother, Fatima Garcia Lastra recreates the anécdotas about their ancestors that she used to tell her, since her departe from Spain, her journey through Cuba, and her final residence, years later, in the city of Campeche.
She recounts the life experiences of their relatives, as well as personal exploits and anecdotes, games, hobbies, friends, and endearing memories of
her nanny Carmen or Carmela, the cook.
Through her mother’s talks, her grandfather’s letters and heard conversations over the years, Fatima is able to capture the story of a whole family, framed or seasoned with recipes inherited from generation to generation.
