The third literary anthology in the series that has been called `ambitious` (O Magazine) & `strikingly international` (Boston Globe), Freeman`s: Home, continues to push boundaries in diversity & scope, with stunning new pieces from emerging writers & literary luminaries alike. As the refugee crisis continues to convulse whole swathes of the world & there are daily updates about the rise of homelessness in different parts of America, the idea & meaning of home is at the forefront of many people`s minds. Viet Thanh Nguyen harks to an earlier age of displacement with a haunting piece of fiction about the middle passage made by those fleeing Vietnam after the war. Rabih Alameddine brings us back to the present, as he leaves his mother`s Beirut apartment to connect with Syrian refugees who are building a semblance of normalcy, & even beauty, in the face of so much loss. Home can be a complicated place to claim, because of race
- the everyday reality of which Danez Smith explores in a poem about a chance encounter at a bus stop
- or because of other types of fraught history. In ` Vacationl&, ` Kerri Arsenault returns to her birthplace of Mexico, Maine, a paper mill boomtown turned ghost town, while Xiaolu Guo reflects on her childhood in a remote Chinese fishing village with grandparents who married across a cultural divide. Many readers & writers turn to literature to find a home: Leila Aboulela tells a story of obsession with a favourite author. Also including Thom Jones, Emily Raboteau, Rawi Hage, Barry Lopez, Herta Muller, Amira Hass, & more
- writers from around the world lend their voices to the theme & what it means to build, leave, return to, lose, & love a home.
