Aamna Modhin on the making and unmaking of a refugee

Aamna Modhin on the making and unmaking of a refugee

Published 2 years ago
Description

With Scattered, award-winning journalist and former child refugee Aamna Mohdin has written a warm, candid and surprisingly funny memoir about her family’s experiences fleeing the Somali civil war in the 1990s. She chats to our Mick about survivor’s guilt, people not 'migrants', the joys in interviewing your parents, and her relationship with Somalia today.

Scattered is published by Bloomsbury, out on June 6 and available from all good bookshops.
