Inhaltsangabe:
Lara Pawson's This Is the Place to Be is a stark, compassionate and troubling text that summons a fragmentary autobiography, circling experiences from her growing up in England and her time as a reporter covering civil wars in Angola and Ivory Coast. She deals with big questions through an intimate mosaic of lived experiences - the blank, funny, awful, gentle shards that remain in memory years after events have taken place - returning her again and again to the themes of identity, violence, race, class, sexuality and the everyday lives of people across several continents.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Lara Pawson lives in east London. She is the author of In the Name of the People: Angola’s Forgotten Massacre (2014) and Spent Light (2024).
