Home Paintings
This beautiful and poignant biography of Issei artist Kamekichi Tokita uses his paintings and wartime diary to vividly illustrate the experiences, uncertainties, joys, and anxieties of Japanese Americans during the World War II internment and the more optimistic times that preceded it.

Van Gogh’s Table at the Auberge Ravoux: Recipes From the Artist’s Last Home and Paintings of Cafe Life
Home Paintings
At the Auberge Ravoux, in a tiny artists’ village twenty miles from Paris, Postimpressionist painter Vincent van Gogh found a measure of peace in an otherwise ill-starred life. In what would be his last home, he enjoyed the camaraderie of fellow artists and an unparalleled burst of creativity. The auberge still operates today as the Maison de Van Gogh. Little has changed since Van Gogh set down his bags more than a century ago, and visitors to its cafT are treated to the same regional cuisine t

Signs of Home,
Fascinating to hear a real voice from this era. Sets the stage and puts the reader “right there.” It is one thing to read history as it is written after the fact. It is an entirely different perspective to read a voice as history is happening. Tokita’s shock at the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the days, weeks, months that followed as his emotions ranged from sheer astonishment, to fear, to simply coping day to day with his family’s changing situation reads almost novel-like. Ultimately, his resignation to internment and then simply living in Minidoka’s make-do, harsh environment (the internment camp in Idaho) makes one sad at the injustice of the moment. I gained new admiration for the Japanese culture of dignity and making the best of life’s circumstances.
The big plus in this book are the reproductions of Tokita’s paintings. Remarkably modern and definitely much evolved from the traditional Japanese style. His palette sets the tone of the Pacific Northwest. The locales he painted are a fresh viewpoint of scenes usually seen only in black and white photographs.
For any reader interested in the era of WWII and/or art history, this book is an excellent read.

|A great Xmas gift!,
This book has a unique combination of art and cooking. It is highly readable. It has lots of interesting facts about van Gogh in his last weeks, and about his relationship with food and drink. It has beautiful reproductions of paintings by van Gogh, but it also has many recipies that can be tried out. A great Xmas gift and a value for money! I really enjoyed it.

|Gorgeous Magnificent Book!,
The Grandmother’s Apple Cake recipe in this book is my favorite recipe on Epicurious so I bought the book hoping the other recipes would be as good. Wow! It was so beautiful and interesting and so much more than a cookbook that I gave it to a good friend as a Christmas gift and ordered another.
This is really half art book, half cookbook. The book is co-written by an art historian (mostly the first part, which recounts Van Gogh’s last days, spent in the hotel, when he churned out 70 paintings in 70 days) and Alexandra Leaf, a food historian, who together with the chef at the hotel (which exists to this day) includes recipes for dishes Van Gogh ate. They’re fantastic. Highly recommended.
