Her new book is A Map of Future Ruins: On Borders and Belonging. “It took me a while to figure out that this is actually a book about storytelling, about journalistic storytelling, about the kind of myths we spin culturally and politically, about history, about current events, and the role of journalism within all of that, and my role as a journalist.” Show notes: @LaurenMarkham_ laurenmarkham.info Markham on Longform 01:00 The Far Away Brothers  (Crown • 2018) 03:00oaklandinternational.org 28:00 How the Word Is Passed  (Clint Smith • Little, Brown and Company • 2021) 38:00 “How Greece Secretly Adopted the World’s Most Brazen—and Brutal—Way of Keeping Out Refugees”  (Mother Jones • March 2022) 44:00 “For Me, With Love and Squalor”  (Longreads • June 2018) Learn more about your ad choices.
