Temelkuran is a brilliant writer, finding humour, hope and humanity in the darkest corners of our current malaise. Together lifted my heart and my spirits and is a book for everybody of any age
Brian Eno
Together is a call for us to abandon some of the hardening that we've undertaken as a society [ . . . ]. I think Ece is an extraordinary writer, she has a unique ability to put our current political conflicts into a global context, and her faith in grassroots action is redemptive

Her genius is to dismantle the power with unexpected irony, to bring you inside the understanding of the present by giving you a scalpel and a flower. Read this book: you will bleed and you will feel protected at the same time. It’s the magic of Ece Temelkuran

If you only read one book this year, then this must be it
Sarah Winman
Suffering a sorrow that we can overcome. Longing for a freedom that we don’t yet have. For as long as I can remember, these have been the sensations Beethoven’s music planted into my soul. More recently, reading Ece Temelkuran’s delightful Together gave me the same sensations
Yanis Varoufakis
Temelkuran writes gorgeously about the human situations – from Turkey to Croatia – that demand new thinking. The insights of this book, whose tone is a potent mix of fierce urgency but unyielding calmness, make Together an important contribution to how politics will evolve
