...from East Asia, Africa and Latin America who have found their way to Israel. About half of them are illegal, as Valdez is now. She went to Israel legally but her visa lapsed at about the time she gave birth to her son Jerry. Her apartment is among the Eritrean cafés, Sudanese restaurants and Filipino bars in the streets around the old central bus station - underneath a police advertisement inviting residents to inform on their neighbors' visa status.

Even today, Shanghai has more Art Deco buildings than any other city in the world. If I didn't have hope...
...restaurant etiquette instructs us to keep our fingers as far away from our food as possible. But for those whose natural instinct is to dig in and get real with your meal, I heartily recommend Asmara. Opened in 1986, Asmara was Boston’s first Ethiopian and Eritrean restaurant. Although their spices and preparation methods are similar to those used in Indian cuisine—to choose a more familiar reference—no one would confuse the two cuisines. Ethiopian and Eritrean food is eaten with a steamed flatbread called “injera?...
