Mahi Binebine's courageous novel takes place in Morocco, where seven would-be immigrants, pulled by the dream of a better life, gather one night near the Strait of Gibraltar, the ten-mile-wide waterway that separates Europe and Africa, to wait for a signal from traffickers that it is time to cross. While they wait, their stories unfold: Kacem is an escapee from the civil war in Algeria; Nuara, with her newborn child, hopes to find her husband, who hasn't been in touch for months since moving to France; and Aziz, the young narrator, and his cousin Reda are severed, in different ways, from the.
"Le drame des migrants clandestins et de leur traversée du détroit de Gilbratar : le narrateur, Azzouz, adolescent, son cousin Réda, une jeune femme et son bébé, un Algérien rescapé d'une tuerie, deux Maliens... Les moments de l'attente sont ponctués de retours en arrière, de portraits et d'évocations d'autres destins, comme le rabatteur du passeur."
"Flucht ins Paradies: Ein wunderbares, starkes und intensives Buch! Es erzählt uns von Leuten, deren Schicksal wir meist (wenn überhaupt!) nur aus einer kleinen Zeitungs-Spalte entnehmen: Von Flüchtlingen, die von Afrika ins Paradies Europa gelangen möchten (die dabei auch immer wieder mal scheitern). In diesem Roman hat der Autor eine Handvoll illegaler Einwanderer ins Zentrum gestellt und schildert bei aller Düsternis mit unglaublich viel Farbigkeit ihr Schicksal. Er beschreibt das lange, zermürbende Warten auf die Schlepper, die individuelle Vergangenheit der Protagonisten und verleiht dabei seinen Figuren unvergessliche Konturen und bringt uns das ferne Nordafrika näher - so nah, dass es uns berührt und wir spüren können, wie man sich jenseits des Meeres fühlt. Eine spannende, schöne und eindrückliche Lektüre! Unbedingt zu empfehlen! Ab 14 Jahren, ausgezeichnet, Urs Geissbühler."
