A Map of Future Ruins: On Borders and Belonging

A Map of Future Ruins is a thought-provoking and timely exploration of the stories we tell about migration, delving into the ways in which these narratives shape our understanding of who belongs and how we perceive borders.

Through a mesmerizing blend of reporting, history, memoir, and essay, Lauren Markham uncovers the oracles that predict the future of migration and challenges readers to dismantle the stories they've been told in order to naturalize the forms of injustice they've come to understand.

With a focus on the ancient Greece and its significance to Western ideas of self, this book offers a unique perspective on the complex issues surrounding migration today.
