Freelance journalist Anna Badkhen spent the last 10 years covering conflict zones. She shares the personal stories of the affected people with whom she met, spoke, laughed, and ate along the way in her new book, Peace Meals, in which the meals she shared serve as a frame for humanizing the way she reports on war.
Anna Badkhen was born in the Soviet Union, where she began her journalism career, and has been working as a freelance journalist since she moved to the US a few years ago. “Peace Meals” is her first book.
