Seeking and Belonging Book Launch

UPDATE

The book launch went really well, despite the (perhaps inevitable) chaos that preceded it! You can view the full stage event here (if you want a time–stamped version, click on the video to view it on YouTube):

Book launch for Seeking and Belonging by Nupu Press, moderated by Dylan Mohan Gray.

I am VERY excited to announce the launch of my first book, SEEKING AND BELONGING. This is a collection of short personal essays about going around the world, searching for a place to belong. To buy a copy, please go here.

The book will be launched at Title Waves bookshop, Road 24, Bandra West, Mumbai 400 050, India at 5:30pm on 3rd December 2022.

There will be readings, Q&A and book signings, along with a free gift of unique hand–drawn bookmarks with each book purchased on the day! I really hope you can join us. It’s open to all, so please feel free to share this page and bring your friends along too.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Here’s a little more about the book:

Living out of a suitcase and moving around the globe without a base, artist and filmmaker Nupu Press is seeking to make sense of this world and her place in it.

In these short personal stories where she goes from London to Mumbai to Dhaka to Split to Boston, she keeps hoping the answers are just around the corner. Her curiosity leads her to, among other things, a silent meditation retreat, a reunion at Harvard, and a work–travel programme that will take her around the world. Between her grief and depression, she finds lightness and creativity – and opportunities to finally meet herself. And with it, her understanding of ‘home’ and ‘belonging’ shifts to something unexpected.

Funny, poignant and revelatory, these are tales of roaming, crashing and getting up again.
