El autor de El Círculo vuelve con la increíble historia verdadera de Mokhtar Alkhanshali, un joven norteamericano de origen yemení que regresó a su país para recuperar el cultivo ancestral del café y se vio atrapado en una guerra civil.

Mokhtar Alkhanshali, hijo de inmigrantes yemeníes, ha crecido en el barrio más conflictivo de San Francisco y a sus veinticuatro años es incapaz de pagarse la universidad. Mientras trabaja de portero en un bloque de pisos de lujo, descubre que el café, al igual que él, tiene su origen en Yemen, por lo que decide investigar la historia y la producción de esta antiquísima bebida viajando al país de sus antepasados. En las montañas más remotas del Yemen este joven norteamericano visita a los caficultores y los escasos cafetales para encontrar las mejores bayas y exportarlas a Estados Unidos, pero la guerra civil estalla y las puertas del país se cierran convirtiendo su regreso en una aventura extremadamente arriesgada.

Dave Eggers firma esta inspiradora historia real sobre un valiente emprendedor que soñó con resucitar el arte ancestral del café en su país. A través de una exhaustiva investigación, Eggers nos invita a ser conscientes de lo que significa ser musulmán en Occidente y rompe una lanza a favor de la necesidad de tender puentes entre culturas. El monje de Moka es un relato de superación, una crónica bélica pero también un recorrido por la historia y el origen de esta popular bebida, así como por el cultivo, la recolección y el procesado del café de alta calidad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Monk of Mokha is the exhilarating true story of a young Yemeni American man, raised in San Francisco, who dreams of resurrecting the ancient art of Yemeni coffee but finds himself trapped in Sana'a by civil war.

Mokhtar Alkhanshali is twenty-four and working as a doorman when he discovers the astonishing history of coffee and Yemen's central place in it. He leaves San Francisco and travels deep into his ancestral homeland to tour terraced farms high in the country's rugged mountains and meet beleagured but determined farmers. But when war engulfs the country and Saudi bombs rain down, Mokhtar has to find a way out of Yemen without sacrificing his dreams or abandoning his people.

Powerful Superfood Supplement – Start Slow to Avoid GI Upset
These 500mg organic chlorella tablets are a great way to add a nutrient-dense superfood to your daily routine. They’re packed with vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, and antioxidants, and I definitely noticed a gentle boost in energy and overall wellness after consistent use. The tablets are easy to swallow and made with high-quality, clean ingredients. That said, it’s important to ease into the dosage—especially if you’re new to chlorella. I experienced some mild gastrointestinal side effects (like bloating and gas) in the beginning, but once I gradually increased my intake over a few days, those symptoms went away. Starting with a lower dose and giving your body time to adjust really helps. Overall, this is a great natural supplement, just be mindful to start slow and stay hydrated!

Take before PM Sleep - Cleans-Out Cell's TOXIC Heavy-Metal contents, promotes Sleep.
GREEN Chlorella (along with BLUE-GREEN Spirulina) can replace ALL your other Supplements at a Fraction of the Cost. Chlorella is recommended just before going to PM Sleep, as it's Main Function is to CLEAN OUT all the Heavy Metal TOXIN's in your body's 38 Trilllion Cells, overnight, plus Promotes Deep REM Sleep, during which all this CLEAN-OUT happens, particularly in your BRAIN. When you wake up, you will feel Refreshed, like you just had a Good Night's Sleep, but without the Bad Side Effects of Sleeping Pills. Combine this by taking BLUE-GREEN Spirulina, soon as you Wake Up in the AM, for Breakfast, then repeat for Lunch, and Dinner too, which is like ROOM SERVICE for FOOD. All you have to do is Eat 6 Tables of It per meal. Did you know BLUE-GREEN Spirulina has 1000x more Vitamins, Minerals, and other Plant Based Nutrients, that the Human Body NEEDS, especially the Magnesium (Mg+) Ions from the Plant Chlorophyll, to Properly Function, and will give you a CALM, GENTLE ENERGY, like a Cup of Japanese GREEN TEA, for the Rest of your Day. You become Mentally Alert, but Body Relaxed, which is why Buddhist Monks use it to Meditate. RINSE then REPEAT, DAILY. Welcome to your New Life. 5-STARS, and suggest you try it too.

Chlorella for heavy metal detox
I use Chlorella in conjunction with Cilantro, DMSA, Modified Citrus Pectin and Zeolites for a heavy metal detox under a physicians protocol. I tested high for Lead, Mercury and Cadmium, as well as trace amounts of other heavy metals. All our food supplies and tobacco products contain lead and other toxins. Amalgam teeth fillings some dentists use have mercury in them. Let's not even get into tap water. It is insane how much toxins we are exposed too! Chlorella is a natural chelator and binder for heavy metals and toxins. It also has vitamins and minerals in them. I take 6 a day with a meal and it has helped with the detox process tremendously. I will continue to take these after my heavy metal detox protocol is complete for maintenance purposes. It definitely works! As with all MicroIngredient products, you are getting tremendous value for the money. A bag will last you a long time.
