My Fourth Time We Drowned👍 Recommends
…discussing sally hayden's book about eu treatment of migrants in libya
“It's called My Fourth Time We Drowned. Very good book. Difficult read, I would say. It very much is some of the type of reporting that I try and do myself on migration and that it talks about people, not numbers. And it centers migrants as individuals with stories. It's a great book, but probably not one to read, you know, right before bed.”
