Join us at the Athenaeum for a reading and book signing of Kitchen Arabic with University of Georgia Press author, Joseph Geha. Immigrant children first speak the language of their mothers, and in Toledo, Ohio’s Little Syria neighborhood where Joseph Geha grew up, the first place he would go to find his mother would be the kitchen.
