        Nazar the Brave

        by Derenik Demirchyan

        Thousands of tailors, shoemakers, lazy vagabonds, “renowned” and unknown, bachelors or those terrified of “wretched wife’s indictments” who dreams of becoming a queen set on a journey to find their fortune some of them having written mottos on their self-proclaimed bravery on their flags, and some of them on the blade of their swords and some of them on their armor to create one of the best pieces of world fairy tales which can be conditionally named “Nazartales”. Nazar, no matter what “noble” titles he is represented with, is a national “hero” in different cultures. He was “honored” by Hovhannes Tumanyan and the Brothers Grimm, Alexander Afanasyev and Italo Calvino, Joseph Jacobs and Avetik Isahakyan. But our Nazar is still different – “Center of the universe”. The number of beasts he killed counts thousands. Have you heard such a thing?! The German tailor kills 7 flies in the best case, the poor shoemaker from the Albion – a dozen of flies, the Italian counterpart – 500. Our pahlavan perfectly handles rhetoric, “I say five, and you should understand thousand”.

        The Parking Lot

        by Rabia Ahmed

        A story of the ongoing struggle between power and poverty in Pakistan's town. It's an investigative novel because the author is a journalist, at times a social novel, but also an intimate novel, and always in a simple and elegant writing. Pakistan, with its social and urban problems, has so much to tell us. Sinopsis : In her search for the ‘other family’, Hina, a young journalist, takes us from her upper middle-class neighbourhood in Lahore, to a very different setting. The Parking Lot deals with the gulf between the rich and the poor in Pakistan, the Christian community discriminated and the muslim richer segment of society. “Set within the framework of a family coming to terms with its own dark secrets, Rabia Ahmed’s novel brings into sharp focus the discrimination, violence and injustice religious minorities face in Pakistan. At times her account doesn’t read like fiction, so familiar is the sequence of events to us. This compelling story should evoke, among readers, greater understanding and empathy for our marginalised fellow citizens who are equal on paper only.” Zohra Yusuf, former chairperson Human Rights Commission of Pakistan

        A journey through Art History

        by Claire Parizel, Vanessa Rosa

        Diana’s World is a children's book (8-12 years old) that tells the story of Diana, a little girl curious to learn more about the world around her. She is always with her dog Alice, a small, playful white poodle who loves to hunt mice. The two friends are helped by the story's narrator, who will allow them to enter new worlds inspired by art history. From the Italian Renaissance to Song China and 18th century Japan, they will discover things they never imagined… at their own risk. Each scene in the book is inspired by paintings and objects that actually exist.Ukiyo-e for Japan, meditative landscape paintings for China… To construct the images, the authors, who are also art historians, have worked with recent scientific research to give them a sensitive form. They have sought to translate the visual experience of each culture into each of the worlds Diana discovers. This book will be published in Brazil in December. It's the first of a series. We also created a multi language website for it, an instagram page, stickers and much more will soon be released.

        Appartement 102 - Omarska

        Ein Zeitzeugnis

        by Jadranka Cigelj

        Vergewaltigung als Waffe im Krieg! Jadranka Cigelj, bosnische Kroatin, Rechtsanwältin, Politikerin und Menschenrechtsaktivistin, wurde am 14. Juni 1992 zwei Monate im Konzentrationslager Omarska eingekerkert, dem berüchtigten von Serben errichteten Lager im bosnischen Krieg. Der Raum im KZ Omarska, in dem sie mit siebzehn weiteren Frauen gefangen gehalten und gefoltert wurde, war „Appartement 102“. Schonungslos offen schildert sie das tägliche Überleben in einer entmenschlichten Wirklichkeit, in der Folter, Vergewaltigung und das Töten mit Messern und Fäusten zum Alltag gehörten, ausgeführt von Menschen, die sie bis dahin als Nachbarn, Kollegen und Freunde kannte. Ungefähr 3000 Männer, meist bosnische Muslime, wurden in Omarska ermordet, dessen Kommandant, Željko Mejakić, wegen Kriegsverbrechen vor dem Tribunal in Den Haag angeklagt ist. Frau Cigelj war eine von 37 gefangenen Frauen in Omarska, fünf von ihnen wurden getötet. Sie lebt heute in Zagreb und ist Zeugin der Anklage in diesem Prozess. Zeitzeuginnen
