AUTHOR EVENING – VICTORIA BRITTAIN AT IHRC

An evening with Victoria Brittain discussing her play “The Meaning of Waiting”.

Eight women tell their stories using their own words of the unseen fallout of the war on terror in Britain. These are stories of real women, from cultures as varied as Palestine, Senegal, Jordan, Libya, St John's Wood, and the English Midlands that all came to the UK as refugees, or married refugees. After 9/11 the world they loved here vanished almost overnight. One after another they were engulfed by isolation and private terror.
