Philippe Sands
38 Londres Street: Searching for Justice
Bestselling author and international human rights barrister Philippe Sands uncovers a hidden history that links the horrors of the 1940s to our present time, examining how we confront the uncomfortable truths that link the past to the present.
Mixing memoir, detective story and courtroom drama, Philippe’s latest book reveals a search for justice spanning decades and continents, connecting Pinochet in England to a Nazi officer in Patagonia. Through meticulous investigation and powerful storytelling, Philippe Sands illuminates the enduring impact of historical crimes on modern legal and moral frameworks.
Philippe will reflect on his long-running investigation, the lasting impact of historical crimes, and his own career. He’ll be in conversation with Rashmin Sagoo, an international lawyer and former Director of the Chatham House International Law Programme.
‘Weaving together a globe-trotting legal thriller, a personal history and a twin portrait of a pair of mass murderers, Sands has created an indelible and enthralling work of moral witness.’
