Summary:
Istanbul, 1999. Nach dreißig Jahren in Deutschland erfüllt sich Hüseyin seinen Traum: Eine eigene Wohnung in Istanbul. Doch am Tag des Einzugs stirbt er an einem Herzinfarkt. Als seine Frau und die vier erwachsenen Kinder aus Deutschland zur Beerdigung anreisen, kommen jahrzehntelang verschwiegene Geheimnisse und unverheilte Wunden ans Licht. Vieischichtig und mutig spürt Dschinns der Frage nach, was Familie ausmacht. Können wir die Wahrheit ertragen? Oder wird sie am Ende alles zum Einsturz bringen? Fatma Aydemirs großer Gesellschaftsroman zeichnet das Bild einer deutsch-türkischen Familie, das gegenwärtiger nicht sein könnte. --Amazon.com
Istanbul, 1999. After thirty years in Germany, Hüseyin is fulfilling his dream: his own apartment in Istanbul. But on the day he moved in, he died of a heart attack. When his wife and four adult children arrive from Germany for the funeral, secrets that have been kept secret for decades and unhealed wounds come to light. In a complex and courageous way, Dschinns investigates the question of what makes a family. Can we bear the truth? Or will she bring everything down in the end? Fatma Aydemir's great social novel paints a picture of a German-Turkish family that couldn't be more contemporary. --Goggle translate.
