Nation of Strangers

14.38

Across the world the number of refugees and exiles, the dispossessed and displaced, the politically homeless and the economically excluded is growing. In the decade since she left her own home, Ece Temelkuran has been a political Cassandra, warning those convinced it couldn’t happen in their country that fascism is coming. Now, as oppression spreads and temperatures rise – as we face competing crises and learn, again and again, that no institution is so concrete it can’t turn to dust, and no home is too strong to be destroyed – she has written ‘Nation of Strangers’, a series of letters from one stranger to another. Politically attuned and deeply personal, this extraordinary, heartening correspondence is a gift to treasure in uncertain times.

Dear stranger . . . Are you home? Do you feel at home? For how much longer?

Across the world the number of refugees and exiles, the dispossessed and displaced, the politically homeless
and the economically excluded is growing.

Now, Ece Temelkuran, who has for years been a political Cassandra, warning the West about the rise of fascism,
has written Nation of Strangers: a series of letters from one stranger to another. It is a book for anyone who feels
alienated by an ever-more monstrous world, and a roadmap for an uncertain future.
