I came home yesterday to a delightful discovery: the Korean translation of Sarah Moss’s and my short book Chocolate: A Global History.  I am not even sure what else to say, other than it is a truly bizarre thing not being able to read a book you wrote.

That, and the Korean edition is simply far more beautiful: bigger illustrations, gorgeous layout.   Hats off to them.

I’m a media historian, with special interests in broadcasting, transnational processes and cultures, archives, women’s history and a few other things. I am Assistant Professor for Media and Culture at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. I am also a migrant, a dad, a Gen-Xer, and a widower. Sometimes I write about those things, too.
