Description
"This is a living and essential book." --sam sax, author of Bury It and Madness
A meditation on historical rupture and political imagination, A Flag of No Nation traces the stories of Turkish Jews in the twentieth century, navigating the tides of antisemitism, Turkish nationalism, Zionism, and the aftermath of the Ottoman Empire. Through forms of storytelling that range from allegory to oral history, Tom Haviv investigates the history of IsraelPalestine and the mythologies of nationalism, searching the archives for rituals and frames that might one day shape new realities of peace and justice. A warning against imperfect dreams, A Flag of No Nation reminds us how the act of remembrance can help us re-envision the future. A Flag of No Nation was previously published by Jewish Currents Press.
