Annelise Jolley and Zahara Gomez teamed up to create “A Feast for Lost Souls” for this month’s piece for The Atavist Magazine.
What an incredible story about a group of women who hunt for the bodies of their “disappeared” loved ones, but find ways to honor them through cooking. The Memory Recipe Book is what Zahara helped develop, along with the widows and mothers, to pay tribute to their lost sons and husbands.
Zahara also created a few mini-documentaries as part of this story to go along with Annelise’s incredible reporting and writing of the piece.
Annelise is an essayist and journalist with a focus on food and travel. Zahara is a filmmaker and photographer.
