Krátky popis
A profoundly personal and moving portrait of a misunderstood people
and their on-going journey – shedding new light on Romani history
and what it means to be Romani in Europe today.‘Fascinating’
TELEGRAPH‘An exhilarating history of resistance and survival’
OBSERVERThe Romani story is not widely known, and that invisibility
has allowed fear and hostility to thrive. The Roma, full of
extraordinary individuals and hitherto ignored moments from
history, corrects this.We meet the artist who chronicled her
experiences of the Holocaust in Austria, the boxer who should have
become Germany’s light-heavyweight champion only to have his win
scratched from the record by the Nazis, and a eighteenth-century
woman in London who was sentenced to death for kidnapping to be
exonerated by the detective work of an unconvinced judge.
Throughout, Madeline Potter weaves in her travels though Romani
Europe and experience as a Romani woman in Romania and in
Britain.Blending evocative history and lyrical travel writing with
intimate accounts of racism and calls for change, The Roma is a
powerful story of resistance, resilience and survival – and a
celebration of a vibrant culture and misunderstood people.‘A
fascinating look at a marginalised and misunderstood people’ DAILY
MAIL‘Wise and beautiful’ JO CLEMENT, author of Outlandish‘Epic in
scale and ambition … Utterly compelling’ LANRE BAKARE, author of We
Were There‘A book to be treasured’ BIDISHA, broadcaster and
presenter
