This is Europe The Way We Live Now Taschenbuch von Ben Judah Räumungsverkauf

What does it now mean to call yourself European? Who makes up this population of 750 million, sprawled from Portugal to Ukraine, from Sweden to Turkey? Who has always called it home, and who has newly arrived from elsewhere, hoping for better? Who are the people who drive our long-distance lorries, steward our criss-crossing planes, craft our legacy wines, fish our depleted waters, and risk life itself in search of safety and a new start?

In a series of vivid, ambitious, sometimes darkly funny, often painfully visceral portraits of other people’s lives, Ben Judah invites us to meet them. As they tell their important stories, they reveal a frenetic and vibrant continent transformed by complex supply chains, by migration, Islam, ideologies, the internet, by climate change, Covid and war.

Laid dramatically bare, it may not always be a Europe we recognise – but this is Europe.
