Nation of Strangers
Rebuilding Home in the 21st Century
Nation of Strangers aims to open a global conversation about our contemporary understanding of home, in the way How to Lose a Country did for the global rise of Fascism and Together for the progressive politics of emotions as an antidote to new Fascism.
The book will define the identity of the 'homeless' beyond the clichés of victim and survivor. With a view of carving out from her personal 'homeless' experience, it will lay out the morality of survival. This specific knowledge will come to benefit everyone in the twenty-first century since even the most settled among us have to adapt to frequent, unpredictable changes.
However, Nation of Strangers will not be a survival manual. It will be a book that will show how we can live beautifully and humanely.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
