Motherlands : In Search of Our Inherited Cities
Gacioppo, Amaryllis
A SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR’A remarkable literary debut . . .
Part memoir, part travelogue, Motherlands is ultimately an investigation
of how we come to understand the past at all’ GuardianOur creation
stories begin with the notion of expulsion from our ’original’ home. We
spend our lives struggling to return to the place we fit in, the body we
belong in, the people that understand us, the life we were meant for.
But the places we remember are ever-changing, and ever since we left,
they continue to alter themselves, betraying the deal made when leaving.
Australian writer Amaryllis Gacioppo has been raised on stories of
original homes, on the Palermo of her mother, the Benghazi of her
grandmother and the Turin of her great-grandmother. But what does
belonging mean when you’re not sure of where home is? Is the modern
nation state defined by those who flourish there or by those who aren’t
welcome? Is visiting the land of one’s ancestors a return, a chance to
feel complete, or a fantasy? Weaving memoir and cultural history
through modern political history, examining notions of citizenship,
statelessness, memory and identity and the very notion of home,
Motherlands heralds the arrival of a major talent that opens one’s eyes
to new ways of seeing.
