FIVE AND HALF SENSES (English Edition)
€4.59Discover the Captivating Journey of Zeek Zillan in “Five and Half Senses”
In the vibrant town of Figtree, Gambia, Zeek Zillan, an unassuming bank teller at a microfinance institution, grapples with feelings of anxiety and longing that resonate deeply with anyone who has ever felt out of place.
“Five and Half Senses” draws readers into Zeek’s multiple worlds, where homesickness doesn’t stem from a lack of familiar surroundings but from the suffocating routine of his typical workday, with the pressure of small mistakes that could jeopardize his job and his sense of self-worth.
Il deserto non ha cielo. Diario di una migrazione
€13.30Diario di una migrazione dal Gambia all’Italia di un giovane uomo in cerca di sé e della libertà. La testimonianza diretta di un fenomeno che tutti dovremmo conoscere senza pregiudizi, complessi e distorsioni. Un viaggio attraverso il sogno di una nuova vita, l’orrore delle violenze indicibili tra una frontiera e l’altra, la solidarietà di chi condivide lo stesso destino. Un racconto drammatico e vivace che non manca di ironia e vette poetiche.
