About the book

Chopping Onions on My Heart by Samantha Ellis is a history book for adult readers.

A sweeping, fluid, all-encompassing book, combining memoir with history and an examination of language, culture and food, which asks us how we can save that which is almost lost - from the author of How to be a Heroine and Take Courage. Think: The Body Keeps the Score in practice not theory' ELLA RISBRIDGER Samantha's mother tongue is dying out.

An urgent need to find out more becomes an expansive investigation into how to keep hold of her culture - and when to let it go. The daughter of Iraqi Jewish refugees, Samantha grew up surrounded by the noisy, vivid, hot sounds of Judeo-Iraqi Arabic. A language that's now on the verge of extinction.
