The Lynden/HOME Refugee Steering Committee book discussion group, moderated by Lynden’s Kim Khaira, is for those interested in firsthand accounts of displacement. We consider works of non-fiction and fiction, including autobiographical and semi-autobiographical works, by writers who have faced or are facing forced displacement as refugees, asylum seekers, and immigrants. Where stories of persecution, historical trauma, and loss of livelihood are effortlessly conveyed by storytellers, journalists, and humanitarians who search out or stumble upon the lives of refugees, we seek out the words of those to whom these stories belong: the narrators who are the closest to their own stories, and the stories of their people, friends, family and, of course, refugees. Newcomers always welcome!

Book Sessions

January 2026-April 2026: Pick a Color is a novel by Laotian-Canadian writer Souvankham Thammavongsa that depicts the experiences of a nail salon owner who observes the two worlds that she occupies:as Susan, to one world, and Ning, to another.

April 2026-July 2026: Black Butterflies, by Priscilla Morris, was inspired by Morris's part-Bosnian heritage, including childhood summers spent in Sarajevo. This debut novel is about Zora, an artist who experiences love and loss as she navigates the devastating landscape during the Siege of Sarajevo.
