His new book is Hold Everything Dear and it's a series of reflections written between 20 that arise from contemporary political moments London in the aftermath of the July 7 bombings, New Orleans after its destruction by Hurricane Katrina, New York after 9/11, and the Middle Eastern troubles, from Bagdad to Gaza.Īnd John Berger joins us now. He's always identified himself with the left of politics and with the struggles of poor people. When he was awarded the Booker Prize for a novel called G, he gave half of the prize money to the Black Panthers. He has been called the great prose poet of homesickness, of the yearning to belong. He wrote a novel about AIDS called To the Wedding, and several books of beautiful stories, miniature portraits of moments and of people.īorn in England, he has for many years lived in a small rural community in France. John Berger's previous books include the Into Their Labours trilogy, Pig Earth, Once in Europa and Lilac and Flag which followed the movement of peasants from their villages to the urban centres. His 1972 BBC series and book Ways of Seeing made an enormous impact as a reaction to Kenneth Clark's series on art, which was called Civilisation.
