HOMELANDS - TIMOTHY GARTON ASH KARTONIERT (TB)

**Winner of the Lionel Gelber Prize 2024** **A Financial Times Best Book of 2023** 'A moving
love letter to Europe' Lea Ypi  author of Free Drawing from the people who lived it  Homelands
explores how Europe slowly recovered and rebuilt from World War Two. And then faltered. Timothy
Garton Ash  our greatest writer about Europe  has spent a lifetime studying Europe and this
deeply felt book is full of vivid experiences: from his father's memories of D-Day and his own
surveillance at the hands of the Stasi to interviewing Albanian guerrillas in the mountains of
Kosovo and angry teenagers in the poorest quarters of Paris  as well as advising prime
ministers  chancellors and presidents. Homelands is at once a living  breathing history of a
period of unprecedented progress  a clear-eyed account of how so much then went wrong and an
urgent call to the citizens of this great old continent to understand and defend what we have
collectively achieved. 'The right book for Europe  at the right time' Timothy Snyder  author of
On Tyranny 'Tremendously enjoyable ... thoughtful  honest  open  self-deprecating' Dominic
Sandbrook  Sunday Times 'Readers could hardly wish for a wiser guide ... defiantly hopeful'
