Die Autorin erzählt wohl ihre eigene Geschichte: Als junge Frau ging Salie aus dem Senegal nach Frankreich. Mit vielen Schwierigkeiten kann sie dort ein einfaches Leben leben und studieren. Ihren Bruder möchte sie aber bedingt von dem Traum " Europa" abbringen. Sie gibt ihm ihr Erspartes und hofft, dass er einen kleinen Laden in Afrika eröffnet und kein Flugticket nach Europa kauft. Zwar gibt es viele Geschichten über Senegalesen, die in Frankreich reich geworden sind, doch in Wirklichkeit überwiegen diejenigen, die in Armut und Elend leben. Das Buch ist interessant und gerade vor der aktuellen Flüchtlingssituation sehr erhellend. Als Hintergrunddokument zu Flucht und Migration ist es sehr empfehlenswert und es hat mitunter auch sehr schöne und berührende Stellen. Full of lush, lyrical language, philosophical sayings and descriptions of village life on the island of Niodior off the coast of Senegal, the novel is fairly short but manages to cover a lot of ground. Narrated by Salie, a native of Niodior living in Paris, it covers themes of individualism vs. collective identity, gender roles, the impact of colonization, and identity. Also addressed are the role of Islam in the community of Niodior, especially on gender roles and the identity of women. This is a worthwhile journey through the two different worlds that Salie moves between as well as her own inner journey toward finding an identity of her own. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"This charming, vivid and poetic book captures the poignancy of immigrant life and all the unresolved pain of Africa's relationship with its former colonial powers."--Michela Wrong Salie lives in Paris. Back home on the Senegalese island of Niodior, her football-crazy brother Madické counts on her to get him to France, the promised land where foreign footballers become world famous. The story of Salie and Madické highlights the painful situation of those who emigrate. It is a moving account of one of the great tragedies of our time.
