A Map of Future Ruins: On Borders and Belonging

"What does it mean to belong? How is identity built, not just on an individual level but on a national or global scale? Lauren Markham explores these questions in a deeply personal and thoroughly reported story that weaves together her family lore with centuries of Greece’s history. A reporter who has covered migration for years, she tells the story of the Moria 6, refugees who were accused of setting fire to the Moria refugee camp on the island of Lesbos in 2020. A Map of Future Ruins is a serious but dreamy read."
