This is the first translation in English and the first time it has been published outside of Russia. The story of James Lloydovich Patterson and his family is a fascinating glimpse into post-Civil War life in America. The memoir, told in the first person by his grandmother, Margaret Glascoe, the daughter of a sharecropper, makes for a poignant account that resonates even today. Patterson adds his own insightful commentary and reflections throughout the chronicle. In 1932 Margaret Glascoe's only son Lloyd Patterson traveled to Moscow with Langston Hughes and other African Americans at the invitation of the Soviet government. Lloyd met and married Vera Aralova, a theatre designer and artist. They had three sons, James, Lloyd Jr., and Tom. James was born on 17 July 1933 in Moscow. When James was two years old, he was invited to play the crucial role of an interracial toddler in the 1936 classic Soviet film CIRCUS. Later, he attended the Nakhimov Naval School in Riga and the Naval Academy in Leningrad. He served in the Soviet Navy as an officer on a submarine. Film and the Navy were not his callings, but poetry was. James wrote his first poem at age seven, and in 1962 he graduated from the Maxim Gorky Literature Institute in Moscow. In 1963 Molodaya Gvardiya published his first poetry collection \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRussia, Africa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e.

It would be the heart of his neighborhood and a meet-and-greet for both the downtown and the uptown sets, serving Southern black and cross-cultural food. It would reflect Harlem's history. Ever since the 1930s, Harlem has been a magnet for more than a million African Americans, a melting pot for Spanish, African, and Caribbean immigrants, and a mecca for artists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese traditions converge on Rooster’s menu, with Brown Butter Biscuits, Chicken and Waffle, Killer Collards, and Donuts with Sweet Potato Cream. They’re joined by global-influenced dishes such as Jerk Bacon and Baked Beans, Latino Pork and Plantains, and Chinese Steamed Bass and Fiery Noodles. Samuelsson’s Swedish-Ethiopian background shows in Ethiopian Spice-Crusted Lamb, Slow-Baked Blueberry Bread with Spiced Maple Syrup, and the Green Viking, sprightly Apple Sorbet with Caramel Sauce.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInterspersed with lyrical essays that convey the flavor of the place and stunning archival and contemporary photos, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Red Rooster Cookbook\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is as layered as its inheritance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAuthored by Marcus Samuelsson\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e384 Pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions: 7.94 x 1.32 x 10 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublished by Harvest (October 18, 2016)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Harper Collins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45186647359683,"sku":"21354","price":37.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0501\/7881\/8243\/files\/71GkwEXe6uL._SL1500.jpg?v=1779199958"},{"product_id":"sea-salt-orchid-candle","title":"Sea Salt \u0026 Orchid Candle","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e\na {\n    text-decoration: none;\n    color: #464feb;\n}\ntr th, tr td {\n    border: 1px solid #e6e6e6;\n}\ntr th {\n    background-color: #f5f5f5;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBring the elegance of Hillwood’s renowned orchid collection into your home with the Sea Salt \u0026amp; Orchid Candle.
