Nation of Strangers

Nation of Strangers is perhaps the most urgent and necessary book of our times, for our times -- MICHAEL MORPURGO
One of the finest books I've ever read on what it means to be cast out, to be unhomed. Ece Temelkuran is a brilliant thinker, and her work here is as conceptually illuminating as it is beautifully written -- OMAR EL AKKAD
Ece Temelkuran, with her beautiful, elegiac new book on becoming "unhomed", is in serious danger of becoming the new Hannah Arendt -- YANIS VAROUFAKIS
An essential book of our time -- LYSE DOUCET

A new book from Ece Temelkuran is a new way of understanding the world. She is lucid, honest and often wryly funny about where we are now, and who we are becoming. And Nation of Strangers is her most ambitious and dazzling book yet -- BRIAN ENO
Crackling with intelligence, insight and generosity -- KAMILA SHAMSIE
Nation of Strangers posits that the idea of home, and the emotions that idea contains, is one of the dominant political forces of our time. [ . . . ] National stories urgently need to be told differently. The personal is political. Specifically, emotion is political, especially in a world where, as Temelkuran argues, more and more of us feel unhomed * * Guardian * *
