Mujer azul (Blue woman)
by Antje Rávik Strubel
Description
Adina is the last teenager in the Giant Mountains. When she leaves her small village for the first time - to take a language course in Berlin - she meets Rickie, a photographer who arranges an internship for her at a newly built cultural center in Uckermark. Adina is assaulted by a respected cultural politician from West Germany, and after an odyssey through half of Europe, she ends up stranded in Helsinki. There she meets Leonides, an Estonian political scientist and Member of the European Parliament, who becomes her first stop. While he campaigns for human rights, Adina seeks a way out of her inner exile. These are the circumstances.
