**"Amazing stories . . . Intimate portraits of how [these five ruthless leaders] were at home and at the table." Lulu Garcia-Navarro, NPR's Weekend Edition Sunday
Anthony Bourdain meets Kapuciski in this chilling look from within the kitchen at the appetites of five of the twentieth century's most infamous dictators, by the acclaimed author of Dancing Bearsand What's Cooking in the Kremlin**
What was Pol Pot eating while two million Cambodians were dying of hunger? Did Idi Amin really eat human flesh? And why was Fidel Castro obsessed with one particular cow?
Traveling across four continents, from the ruins of Iraq to the savannahs of Kenya, Witold Szabowski tracked down the personal chefs of five dictators known for the oppression and massacre of their own citizensIraq's Saddam Hussein, Uganda's Idi Amin, Albania's Enver Hoxha, Cuba's Fidel Castro, and Cambodia's Pol Potand listened to their stories over sweet-and-sour soup, goat-meat pilaf, bottles of rum, and games of gin rummy. Dishy, deliciously readable, and dead serious, How to Feed a Dictator provides a knife's-edge view of life under tyranny.
