About

For many, home is not a fixed place but something fragile, shaped by memory, language and hope. Ece Temelkuran, a Turkish writer and journalist whose life has been shaped by political upheaval, draws on her new book 'Nation of Strangers' to reflect on how people become outsiders, the lived reality of exile and how home can be fractured and remade. She is joined by novelist Kamila Shamsie, whose work explores identity and belonging across borders. Together they ask how storytelling can help us understand belonging in an age of displacement.
