From the best-selling author of The Circle - the gripping true story of a young Yemeni American man, raised in San Francisco, who dreams of resurrecting the ancient art of Yemeni coffee but finds himself trapped in Sana'a by civil warMokhtar Alkhanshali is twenty-four and working as a doorman when he becomes fascinated with the rich history of coffee and Yemen's central place in it. He leaves San Francisco and travels deep into his ancestral home to tour terraced farms high in the country's rugged mountains. He collects samples and organizes farmers and is on the verge of success when civil war engulfs the country. Saudi bombs rain down, the U.S. embassy closes, and Mokhtar has to find a way out of Yemen with only his hopes on his back.The Monk of Mokha is the story of this courageous and visionary young man following the most American of dreams.

Recenze
pracuje jako vrátný, když on je fascinován bohatou historií kávy a jemenské centrální místo v ní. Opouští San Francisco a cestuje hluboko do svého rodného domu, aby navštívil terasovité farmy vysoko v drsných horách této země. Sbírá vzorky a organizuje farmáře a je na pokraji úspěchu, když země pohltí občanská válka.
