About the Book

Now is the time for the new, the beautiful and the humane. In Together, award-winning political thinker, author and poet Ece Temelkuran provides an inspiring manifesto for change by revealing fresh possibilities for the better world we might want to live in and gives us a new vocabulary for the political action that the twenty-first century demands. Above all, this book will challenge you to have faith in the other human beings we share this planet with, to turn away from an uncaring world and instead build a new one with compassion.

About the Author :
Ece Temelkuran is an award-winning Turkish writer, political thinker and public speaker whose work has been published worldwide. Her novels, Women Who Blow on Knots and The Time of Mute Swans, have been published in several languages and adapted to the stage. Temelkuran's two political essays, Deep Mountain: Across the Armenian-Turkish Divide and Turkey: The Insane and Melancholy, explore the connection between the personal and political. After she left her country in 2016, Temelkuran began writing in English. Her first book in this language, How to Lose a Country: The 7 Steps from Democracy to Fascism, received international praise. Her second, Together: A Manifesto Against a Heartless World offers 'a way out from the political and moral insanity' that is ushered by the global rise of fascism. Ece Temelkuran has lived in Beirut, Tunis, Oxford, Paris and Zagreb. She is currently based in Berlin and is on the advisory board of Progressive International and DemocracyNext. ecetemelkuran.net | @ETemelkuran | @ece.temelkuran

Review :
Temelkuran is a brilliant writer, finding humour, hope and humanity in the darkest corners of our current malaise. Together lifted my heart and my spirits and is book for everybody of any age Her genius is to dismantle the power with unexpected irony, to bring you inside the understanding of the present by giving you a scalpel and a flower. Read this book: you will bleed and you will feel protected at the same time. It's the magic of Ece Temelkuran If you only read one book this year, then this must be it Suffering a sorrow that we can overcome. Longing for a freedom that we don't yet have. For as long as I can remember, these have been the sensations Beethoven's music planted into my soul. More recently, reading Ece Temelkuran's delightful Together gave me the same sensations Temelkuran writes gorgeously about the human situations - from Turkey to Croatia - that demand new thinking. The insights of this book, whose tone is a potent mix of fierce urgency but unyielding calmness, make Together an important contribution to how politics will evolve I am giving Temelkuran's Together to everyone I know. So clear-eyed, frank, wise and joyous! An obligatory book for any human on earth today In this elegant, beautifully written book, [Temelkuran] offers something like an ethics of how to live in this world Justly famous as an anatomist of so much that is wrong in the modern world, Ece Temelkuran here turns her attention to what is right - and it's wonderful to discover that her arguments are not just as clear-sighted, but just as convincing
