Fortress of Poverty

By Delia Jose Comedis

Fortress of Poverty is a guidebook. The author's personal story emerges from every line and is meant to be an example to readers. Difficulties and perseverance mark this path. Domestic workers will find food for thought, advice, and useful instructions to do their job better. With practical guidance, concrete examples and general discussions, this text immerses us in a reality to be discovered. Finally, the whole and last section devoted to cooking provides a challenge for all those who want to experiment with new flavours. There is no shortage of traditional and innovative recipes. However, this text presents the reader with much more than that. It discusses personal growth, career and life goals, losses, and wins. In short, everything that is part of everyone's life and that makes it impossible not to empathise.
