About the Book

Turkey's authoritarian turn under the reign of Erdoan, and the crackdown on freedom of speech and assembly, has caused many Turkish citizens either voluntarily or involuntarily to flee the country. Featuring interviews with former politicians, artists, journalists, academics and activists, this book gives a voice to those in exile. By presenting their own stories in their own words, we learn how individuals cope with the realities of separation from their homeland, how they have managed to build new lives abroad and the prospect of return to Turkey. Both heart-breaking and informative, this book provides a snapshot of a new layer of intellectual diaspora in the making.

Review :
This book is a very timely contribution, consisting of impressive and intimate interviews with critical names of the Turkish diaspora. Ahmet Erdi Öztürk and Bahar Baser do an excellent job of capturing emotions in these sensitive conversations that make the reader laugh and cry. I wish there were more books like this – direct, personal testimonies of intellectuals who are living in exile. This is truly a stellar collection.
