Story37
Beginning with a sweetly funny, moving account of her arranged marriage, the author undercuts stereotypes and offers the refreshing view of an American life through Muslim eyes. In chapters leavened with humor, hope, and insight, she recounts an immigrant's daily struggles balancing assimilation with preserving heritage, overcoming religious barriers from within and distortions of Islam from without, and confronting issues of raising her children as Muslims - while they lobby for a Christmas tree!

Vom Aufwachsen als Schwarzes Kind in der DDR, von Flucht, Verlust, Sexismus und Gewalt – aber auch von Liebe, Mutterschaft, Resilienz und Selbstermächtigung. Von Freundschaften, die sie schließt, und solchen, die sie verliert. Vom Neuanfang in der BRD. Und davon, die Ruhe im Sturm zu finden.

You may not know his name. Aubrey was a modest man, a gentleman-scholar who cared far more for the preservation of history than for his own legacy. But he was a passionate collector, an early archaeologist and the inventor of modern biography. With all the wit, charm and originality that characterises her subject, Ruth Scurr has seamlessly stitched together John Aubrey's own words to tell his life story and a captivating history of 17th-century England unlike any other.
