“How do strangers become neighbours and friends, and what are the starting points for creating relationships that are not painted with hate and discrimination?” “You Call Me a Stranger is a book that documents the colourful stories of the ‘strangers’ of different backgrounds who live, work, survive, and transform the world around us.

To celebrate the diversity that ‘new neighbours’ bring to our society, Everyday Practice has created five different coloured paper covers for the book. Readers will randomly receive one of the orange, chartreuse, mustard, light blue, or mauve covers. We hope that these experiences will bring a sense of anticipation and welcome that would not be experienced in a ‘pick and choose’, selective relationship.
