Jacqueline Saper, named after Jacqueline Kennedy, was born in Tehran to Iranian and British parents. At 18 she witnessed the civil unrest of the 1979 Iranian revolution and continued to live in the Islamic Republic during its most volatile times, including the Iran-Iraq War. In a deeply intimate and personal story, Saper recounts her privileged childhood in prerevolutionary Iran and how she gradually became aware of the paradoxes in her life and community - primarily the disparate religions and cultures.

Atemberaubende Natur Islands, eine verlorene Berliner Fotografin und eine viel zu intensive Liebe, mit der niemand rechnet. Humorvoll, dramatisch, und schmerzhaft intensiv. Nachdem die erste Ausstellung der Berliner Fotografin Kalima in einem gigantischen Shitstorm endet, flieht sie nach Island. Mit sich im Gepäck: ihre Verlorenheit, ihre panische Angst vor Ablehnung, die sie seit einer Ewigkeit quält, und ihr Island-Bildband, den sie schon ein halbes Leben lang mit sich herumträgt. Als sie auf Nói trifft, den Jungen mit dem Faible für Blumen, spürt sie sofort eine tiefe Verbundenheit.

Finale der New-Adult-Dilogie von Own-Voice-Autorin Basma Hallak mit viel Humor und noch mehr Gefühl! Nach ihrer Flucht aus Island ist Kalima wieder in Berlin und will nur eins – vergessen. Völlig egal ob Vallarheiði, das sich langsam zu ihrem Zuhause entwickelte, ihr Fotolabor, in dem sie zum ersten Mal neue Inspiration geschöpft hat oder Nói, ihre große Liebe, mit dem sie dabei war, sich ein Leben aufzubauen. Und am allermeisten: die Geschehnisse im Einkaufszentrum.
