📮 The Beauty of Humanity Movement by Camilla Gibb (.ePUB)

Old Man Hu'ng has been making and selling pho to hungry devotees for nearly 70 years, continually adapting his recipe and the location of his food cart to accommodate the terrible demands of poverty, war and oppression that have plagued Hanoi throughout his long life. Cherished least of all his mother's ten children thanks to an inauspicious facial birthmark, Hu'ng was sent in 1933 to apprentice at his Uncle Chien's restaurant where he achieved mastery over broth and noodles. Inheriting the business from his uncle, Hu'ng's sublime cookery and willingness to barter made him a favourite in the 1950s with the Beauty of Humanity Movement, a group of artists and intellectuals who dared question Communist rule, at great peril. Heading the Movement was Dao, a poet whose young son Binh would shadow Hu'ng at the restaurant, hungry not for noodles but for the attention that his own revolutionary father was too distracted to provide. When Dao was inevitably arrested, Binh's mother whisked the boy into hiding, blinding him in one eye to avoid conscription. Hu'ng was forced to close his restaurant, but not knowing any other life's work, he persisted in making and selling pho by pushing a food cart through the city, even when forced to make his noodles with scavenged pond weeds.
