Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Six women from Mangalore undergo life-changing experiences in the pursuit of love, belonging, justice and relief from perpetual pain. Iqra, April, Luna, Margo, Turquoise and Zina are unravelling in a man's world, failing to find a centre to hold onto. April is conflicted between finding the one and shattering glass ceilings. Turquoise's tummy hurts and she hates the world. Iqra has irrevocably fallen in love, and Zina's worldview is profoundly shattering. Luna is fearfully avoiding her uncle, and Margo suddenly starts throwing up one day... Nine Lives of Sophia is a stirring and poignant tale woven across time, epistemologies, and people.This novel is a bold and raw exploration of the depth of womanhood, and just how shared the oppressive patriarchal experience is. This novel is both a mirror and a rebellion. As the women's stories unfold, we see the invisible threads that bind them and raise the aching question: Can a woman ever be truly free in a world that refuses to see her whole?
