Eda Gunaydin in conversation with Cher Tan.
Join us for a Friday evening discussion between Eda Gunaydin, the author of Root and Branch, and essayist and critic Cher Tan, about the legacies of migration, and the ways we seek belonging in a late capitalist world.
Mixing the personal and political, Eda Gunaydin’s bold and innovative writing explores race, class, gender and violence, and Turkish diaspora. Equal parts piercing, tender and funny, this book takes us from an overworked and underpaid café job in Western Sydney, the mother-daughter tradition of sharing a meal in the local kebab shop, to the legacies of family migration, and intergenerational trauma.
