Description
What is Possible Now by Navid Kermani showcases the work of one of the remarkable public intellectuals of his generation. Kermani's approach is neither rigid nor definitive, marked instead by a probing, observant style. His thinking often ventures beyond well-trodden paths, persistently seeking to understand the larger context around current events.
Renowned for his prize-winning novels and significant non-fiction works, Kermani has also received widespread recognition as a journalist. He displays a rare political sensitivity, illuminating areas overlooked by politicians and searching for solutions amidst seeming hopelessness. This volume brilliantly compiles his insightful writing from the past thirty years, covering topics ranging from terror in the Middle East to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
As a testament to Kermani’s uniquely compassionate curiosity, this engaging book is a welcome antidote to the confusion and despair that often overshadow current global politics.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
New York Review of Books calls Kermani "among the most thoughtful intellectual voices in German today." Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung praises his role as "a critical intellectual." Die Welt considers him "the most interesting voice Germany has." Esteemed scholars note his mastery of nuanced analysis and his capacity to challenge rash judgements, making the volume "essential reading" for understanding contemporary global issues.
