Coffee - A story of pleasure and violence
Authors Toni Keppeler, Laura Nadolski, and Cecibel Romero take a critical look at the dark side of coffee production and guide readers through the history of coffee as a colonial commodity marked by exploitation and environmental destruction. Thorough research demonstrates how coffee cultivation has influenced climate change and is itself threatened by it today. Despite the bleak picture, the book ends with a hint of hope, encouraging readers to reflect on their own coffee consumption and work for a more sustainable future.
