An issue was brought up by @articshark about Mamushka. I kept Mamushka in the voting because it did have as many nominations as Land of Fish and Rice. But I think it is worth considering that the book might be difficult to acquire for those who don’t already have it. It is sold out on Amazon with no date for return. There are no used copies. And it is either not available or there is a waiting list at libraries. The author does have other books out, which are available, “Summer Kitchens” and “Kaukasis”. I would suggest that we try again next month with Mamushka, or if it’s still not readily available, try one of the other books by the same author.
