Reseña del editor:

WHAT IF YOU KNOW THAT SOMEWHERE ALONG THE ROAD YOU HAVE LOST SOMETHING, BUT YOU DON'T REMEMBER WHAT? Solmaz doesn't define herself only as a woman, Iranian and Muslim, but her world does - the world of men, countries and Gods. From this contrast arises a sense of unease that fuels her ambition as a doctor and her tormenting search for a 'home' across cultures and countries, in England, Austria and Bangladesh. Obsessed with defying the grip of her past, she is blind to the two primal forces that will eventually shatter her house of cards.

Biografía del autor:

Homa Zaklaki is a pseudonym for two Iranian sisters Leila and Roghieh Dehghan-Zaklaki, who grew up in Austria. Their medical works have taken them as volunteers to India and Bangladesh. In addition, Leila has undergone training in counselling and Roghieh holds an MA in Near and Middle Eastern Studies from SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies in London), where she mainly focused on gender and the Middle East. Following a fellowship award from the National Institute of Health Research, Roghieh will soon undertake a study focusing on refugees. Leila and Roghieh live in London.
