Kära främling. Är du hemma? Känner du dig hemma? Hur länge till?
Över hela världen ökar antalet flyktingar och landsförvisade, fördrivna och egendomslösa, politiskt hemlösa och ekonomiskt utestängda. När fler och fler fördrivs från sina hem föds allt större behov av en ny tillhörighet och gemenskap. Det har gått tio år sedan författaren Ece Temelkuran lämnade sitt hemland Turkiet. Allt sedan dess har hon verkat som en politisk Kassandra och i böcker och samtal varnat för fascismen och hur enkelt den kan smyga sig på och få grepp, även där folk tror det vara en fullkomlig omöjlighet. År 2019 kom boken How to loose a country ut i vilken hon beskriver hur lätt en demokrati kan slå över i diktatur. Nu står vi inför en mängd konkurrerande kriser och för varje dag som går blir det allt tydligare att ingen institution är så solid att den inte kan förvandlas till stoft, att inget hem är så starkt att det inte kan förstöras.
Ece Temelkurans nya bok Främlingsnationen – Ett hem för de hemfördrivna är en personlig och klarsynt text där hon i brevform skriver från en främling till en annan om hemlöshetens villkor. Det är hjärtskärande, emellanåt ironiskt skämtsamt, alltid politiskt knivskarpt. Med värme och djup omvärderar Temelkuran begrepp som exil, migration och hem och visar på möjligheten att återuppbygga ett hem i främlingskapets gemenskap.
"Temelkuran bjuder in läsaren i de brev hon skriver från det skälvande nuet. (...) Främlingsnationen är en gripande bok om en ödesdiger framtid som inte lämnar någon oberörd, i en fantastisk översättning av Nika Abiri som fångat det lyriska i språket samtidigt som den dova, skarpa tonen för oss framåt. Helhetsbetyg: 5 (av 5)" BTJ, Lovisa Granath Brodin
"en kraftfullt egensinnig prosa till slut fått ett hem på svenska (...) Att läsa Främlingsnationen är som att hålla en karta upp och ner, på ren trots. Och att inse vad som står på spel." Dagens Nyheter

SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION'Ece Temelkuran is a brilliant thinker' Omar El Akkad'Her most ambitious and dazzling book yet' Brian Eno'Perhaps the most urgent and necessary book of our times' Michael MorpurgoDear 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. 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. As poetic as it is precise, it is a book for anyone who feels alienated by an ever-more monstrous world. It shows how, as we all become strangers, our home will depend on the strength we find with one another.

Three young women and the extraordinary Madam Lilla embark on a road trip from Tunisia to Lebanon as the Arab Spring breaks around them. The novel's title is taken from a sura in the Koran that warns to beware of those 'women who blow on knots' because they do witchcraft.The women all set out for different reasons but each holds a secret that drives them forward. It is only as they travel further across the desert that Madam Lilla's dark intentions become clear and their quest begins hurtling towards an unimaginable end.Unique and controversial in its country of origin for its political rhetoric and atypical Muslim female characters, Ece Temelkuran weaves an empowering tale that challenges us to ponder not only the social questions of politics, religion and women in the Middle East, but also the universal bonds of sister- and motherhood.

’This is essential’ Margaret Atwood on Twitter‘She''s one of the most acute and perceptive analysts of the furtive growth of fascism. Everyone should know about this’ Philip Pullman’Vibrates with outrage’ The Times‘It couldn’t happen here’Ece Temelkuran heard reasonable people in Britain say it the night of the Brexit vote.She heard reasonable people in America say it the night Trump’s election was soundtracked by chants of ‘Build that wall.’She heard reasonable people in Turkey say it as Erdoğan rigged elections, rebuilt the economy around cronyism, and labelled his opposition as terrorists.How to Lose a Country is an impassioned plea, a warning to the world that populism and nationalism don’t march fully-formed into government; they creep. Award winning author and journalist Ece Temelkuran identifies the early-warning signs of this phenomenon, sprouting up across the world, in order to define a global pattern, and arm the reader with the tools to root it out.Proposing alternative, global answers to the pressing – and too often paralysing – political questions of our time, Temelkuran explores the insidious idea of ‘real people’, the infantilisation of language and debate, the way laughter can prove a false friend, and the dangers of underestimating one’s opponent.

Starting with the basic question "what is this place?", award-winning journalist and novelist Ece Temelkuran guides us through her "beloved country". In challenging the authoritarian AKP government – for which she lost her job as a journalist – Temelkuran draws strength and wisdom from people, places and artistic expression.The result is a beautifully rendered account of the struggles, hopes and tragedies which make Turkey what it is today. Lamenting the commercialisation and authoritarianism which increasingly characterises Turkish society, Temelkuran sees hope in the Gezi Park protests of 2013, the electoral breakthrough of the progressive HDP party in 2015 and in the simple kindness of ordinary people.Much more than either straightforward history or memoir, Turkey: the Insane the Melancholy is like sitting with a friendly stranger who, over raki or coffee, reveals the secrets of this rich and complex country – the historic "bridge" between east and west.

Ankara, the capital city in the heart of Turkey at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, East and West, is a hotspot in the Cold War, torn between communism and conservatism, Western freedoms and traditional ways, with an army fearful of democracy and a government that employs thugs and torture to enforce law and order. In the summer of 1980, tensions are building. Homes of the poor are being burnt down. Armed revolutionaries on college campuses battle right-wings militias in the city''s neighborhoods. The lines between good and bad, right and wrong, and beautiful and ugly are blurred by shed blood. Two children, one from a family living in misery and one well-off, form an alliance amid the turmoil. Through their senses, the cityscape unfolds its wonders, its rich smells and colors, as they try to make sense of the events swirling around them. And they hatch a plan. For the first time in generations, mute swans have migrated from Russia to the Black Sea and to a park at the center of Ankara. For the generals, they are an affirmation, and their wings must be broken so they can''t fly away. But if the children can save one swan, won''t they have saved the freedom of all?

Ein Thema, das uns alle angeht, ein Buch, das Hoffnung macht: Ece Temelkuran schreibt so schonungslos wie persönlich über Exil und die Notwendigkeit, eine neue Heimat zu finden. Dabei richtet sie sich an uns alle, die wir uns in einer immer monströseren Welt entfremdet fühlen, und zeigt dabei, wie wir im Miteinander Trost finden und Kraft schöpfen können.«Ich komme nicht wieder heim.» Mit diesem Satz, in einem kurzen Telefonat an ihre Mutter gerichtet, beginnt für Ece Temelkuran ihre unfreiwillige Existenz als Weltbürgerin. Nach dem Putsch 2016 verlässt die erfolgreiche türkische Journalistin und Schriftstellerin das Land, um ihrer Verhaftung zu entgehen. Sie wird Teil der «Nation von Fremden», Menschen, die ihre Heimat verlassen mussten oder sich in ihrem Land, auch mitten in Europa, aufgrund der politischen Entwicklungen nicht mehr zu Hause fühlen, die im Exil leben, geflüchtet sind. Gegen das Alleinsein, das Heimweh und das Gefühl der Orientierungslosigkeit sucht sie andere Heimatlose auf. Am Ende steht die Hoffnung, anzukommen, eine neue Heimat zu finden – ob in einem neuen Land, im Dialog mit anderen oder in sich selbst.«Ece Temelkurans Briefe an uns alle haben eine ungeheure Wucht; ich kenne niemanden, der Politik und Poesie, Menschenliebe und Ratio so überzeugend verschmilzt.» Eva Menasse
