A panorama of life in Germany opens up between moving essays and thoughtful miniatures, which reflects the breaks and hopes of immigrant people. From the "toxic mold of racism" to the "seven reasons to fall in love with Berlin", from the pain of exile to the joy of libraries as "houses of hearts" - the texts show the entire range between wounding and healing, loss and confidence, arriving and just rooting.

A book that makes courage, looks and at the same time a homage is the variety of life. A personal, literary and political contribution to the author Widad Nabi, who lives in Berlin, who points far beyond the moment.

Translated from the Arabic by Larissa Bender, Gunther Orth, Jessica Siepelmeyer, Suleman Taufiq, Kerstin Wilsch
