'Flights' by Olga Tokarczuk

Join us to discuss Flights by Olga Tokarczuk (trans. Jennifer Croft) — winner of the Man Booker International Prize (2018).

A dazzling, genre-bending novel of movement and migration, Flights stitches together travel vignettes and meditations on the human body—linking stories across centuries: an anatomist studying his amputated leg, Chopin’s heart journeying home, and modern travellers unravelling on holiday and at sea. Thoughtful, uncanny, and deeply humane.
