Alycia Pirmohamed - Shorelines

We are absolutely delighted to welcome Alycia Pirmohamed back to the bookshop for a celebration of her latest book, Shorelines: Memory, migration and the selves we become. Thrumming with poetic vitality and questions about the legacies of migration, Shorelines is Pirmohamed's Nan Shepherd Prize-winning non-fiction debut.This very special Edinburgh launch will take place two weeks before the book is published, so attendees will have the unique chance to hear about it and get their hands on a copy before anyone else!Pirmohamed will be in conversation with fellow writer Andrés N. Ordorica. Join us in the shop for a discussion, where you'll have the chance to ask Alycia a question, and get your book signed and personalised.About Shorelines:As a young Muslim woman Alycia Pirmohamed grew up with her body as racialised and her faith as seemingly dangerous Her affinity to the natural world - the mountains, elk and pines of her childhood - conflicted with feelings that she was unwelcome in these landscapes. By contrast, the stories of her parents' homeland - the monsoon winds, red clay roads and abundant korosho trees - felt painfully distant.Across interrelated pieces that move from Midwestern Canada to East Africa, the Pacific Northwest to the British Isles, the award-winning poet traces the legacies of migration and memory on her life, examining the idea of homeland and the mythmaking it demands.
