Produktbeschreibung

Bloomsbury presents Scattered, written and read by Aamna Mohdin. **Longlisted for the Bread & Roses Award 2025** 'Brave, powerful, and deeply necessary ... A vital contribution to the Black British literary canon' Afua Hirsch 'Fresh and important' Guardian 'An exceptional book' Sally Hayden 'Wonderful' Financial Times 'An extraordinary story' Nish Kumar When Aamna Mohdin travelled to Calais to report on the refugee crisis, she was confronted by a reality she had been outrunning for two decades: that she had been a child refugee herself. Determined to piece her scattered family history together, Mohdin set off on a mission. Her journey would see her cross the world: from the rooftops of Mogadishu to a reunion with a long-lost friend in Amsterdam to Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya. Scattered is a powerful investigation into the aftershocks of displacement, written by a young woman uniquely placed to explore the refugee experience. But it is also a story of homecoming in many forms – and a defiant celebration of family and love. 'In a moment where refugees are rarely heard from, her voice breaks through' Gary Younge 'Mohdin explores her Somali family's refugee experience across continents in her wonderful book' Financial Times

Rezensionen

Aamna Mohdin is a gifted storyteller with a compelling story in which resilience and humanity triumph over tragedy and displacement. She is a trusted, honest and at times humorous guide on a journey that is fraught, brave and at times dangerous. In a moment where refugees are often talked about but rarely heard from, her voice breaks through not because it is loud but because it is lyrical
