Sanctuary, Paperback Book

Sanctuary Paperback

Paperback

Description

This is a book about sanctuary: what it means for people in desperate situations today, and what refuge and displacement has meant for people throughout history, and the canons of literature and myth.

This superb book is borne of Marina Warner's work with the project Stories in Transit, which organises storytelling workshops in the UK and in Palermo, bringing young migrant students together with artists, writers and musicians.What is sanctuary for those who have been displaced?

Why do people flee different situations and conflicts worldwide, and what would a perfect version of sanctuary for those forced out of their homes look like?

How can art, which has always recorded and reflected the worst experiences of humanity, also be a salve, an escape or a route to somewhere new.
