How does it feel to sit down to a meal with a family you've just met while a firefight rages outside their door? In Anna Badkhen's extraordinary memoir, Peace Meals: Candy-Wrapped Kalashnikovs and Other War Stories, she tells us how food and shared meals affect her experience as a war correspondent, connecting her directly to the people she covers in war-ravaged countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza and the West Bank.
