Rezensionen
Praise for Together: 10 Choices For A Better Now:

'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 Togetheran important contribution to how politics will evolve in the era of a pandemic' Irish Times

'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' Yanis Varoufakis

'Temelkuran is a brilliant writer, finding humour, hope and humanity in the darkest corners of our current malaise.It lifted my heart and my spirits' Brian Eno

'If you read only one book this year, then this must be it. Magnificent' Sarah Winman, author of Tin Man

'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' Andrew Sean Greer, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less
