Ennatu Domingo was adopted from her native Ethiopia at the age of seven and transplanted to Barcelona where she learned to be and to speak both Spanish and Catalan. But she never forgot her nomadic childhood in the mountains and meadows of Gondar, near the northern border with Eritrea. Having suffered great loss at an early age, she was inspired to study the patriarchal structures that underpinned her individual experiences, both in the West and in contemporary Ethiopia. She has lived in Kenya, Belgium and the UK, and has travelled across the five continents, but keeps returning to the country of her childhood, to relearn her first language Amharic and to immerse herself in the sights and sounds of her birth mother s life. Torn between forgetting and remembering, Ennatu explores the dilemma of international adoptees and the quest for belonging in a book destined to be a classic of its genre.

Leading privacy expert Ivana Bartoletti exposes the reality of the AI revolution, from the low-paid workers who toil to train algorithms to recognise cancerous polyps, to the rise of techno-racism and techno-chauvinism and the symbiotic relationship between AI and right wing populism.

Aged 15 and on track to be an Olympic gymnast, Lucia Osborne-Crowley was violently raped on a night out. The injuries she sustained that evening ended her gymnastics career, and eventually manifested in life-long chronic illnesses, which medical professionals now believe can be caused by untreated trauma.
