Suna

Más información sobre el libro

She does not sleep. Not in arms, not in a stroller, not in a crib. "She cannot take root here," says the doctor. "Find your roots." So the young mother Luisa carries her awake child through the silent house night after night and tells stories: of her Serbian mother, her Turkish father, and her German adoptive parents. Of love that was found and then lost again. Of the time she learned that her parents were not her biological parents. And of why she is named Suna and how her Turkish family considers it a miracle that she exists. Luisa shares all this with her child, finding in storytelling a home for both of them. Suna is the story of a young woman who learns that her life includes people she has never met.
