Description

How, in the twenty-first century, can we do commemoration better?

In particular, how can commemoration contribute to post-war reconciliation and reconstruction?

In this book, a global roster of distinguished writers, artists, musicians, religious leaders, military veterans and scholars debate these questions and ponder the future of commemoration.

They include the world-renowned architect Daniel Libeskind, the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Tony Horwitz, the award-winning novelists Aminatta Forna and Rachel Seiffert, and the human rights lawyer and Gifford Baillie Prize-winner Philippe Sands.

Polemics and reflections together with poetry and creative prose movingly illuminate a subject that speaks to our common humanity.
