Grötzingen Aktuell: Interview with Sara Ehsan about the volume of poetry “The Whispers of Others”
We are very pleased about the current literary contribution from Grötzingen Aktuell from September 6th, 2024 with an interview with Sara Ehsan about the volume of poetry “The Whispers of Others” by Sara Ehsan and Alain Alfred Moutapam, which was published by us in 2022. Here's a little foretaste: "In the small volume of poetry 'the whispers of others', Sara Ehsan and Alain Alfred Moutapam speak, or, as it says on the back of the book, 'scream' into the filter bubbles of the saturated. The 'saturated', that is us, and it is difficult to ignore the authors' cry." "The themes of Alain Alfred Moutapam and Sara Ehsan are similar.

Intermediate interview with Nassir Djafari
An interview by the Heinrich Böll Foundation 'Heimatkunde' with our author Nassir Djafari about his debut novel 'One Week, One Life', identity and origin and right-wing publishers at the Frankfurt Book Fair. “Timm's attitude of denial calls into question Hamid's lifelong dream of continuing social advancement through the next generation. It is from this conflict that the story I am telling unfolds. However, the question of identity is not the focus of my novel, it always resonates in the background, as is usually the case in life.” ‑Nassir Djafari
