📦 Shipping Notice for Print Books
To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Argument That Would Not End — The cardamom was the problem on Tuesday. By Wednesday it had become an argument about the cumin. By Thursday the argument had acquired a history that was longer than any particular spice, and Khalil and Amira are their father's children, who learned to be particular about measurements from a man who believed that getting things right was worth the time it took — and who never told them what to do when they couldn't agree on what right was.
