View Rights PortalEine junge Frau, Ruth, flieht im Herbst 1934 vor einer unglücklichen Liebe. Aus Berlin, Köln, Brüssel, Brügge, Ostende, Paris und Marseille schreibt sie an Immanuel, den Mann, den sie mehr liebt als er sie. Doch sie reist nur in der Phantasie in diese Städte, es sind Briefe von einer imaginären Reise. Die Stationen der Reise sind in diesen Schilderungen als reale wie als geistige Orte präsent, Beobachtungen aus dem nazistischen Berlin etwa mischen sich mit Gedanken zur Literatur und Kunst und vielem mehr. Die persönliche Liebesgeschichte verbindet sich mit scharfsichtigen Beschreibungen vom Europa Mitte der dreißiger Jahre – es ist auch der Herbst Europas vor der großen Katastrophe. So sprechen diese Briefe nicht nur von der unglücklichen Liebe Ruths zu Immanuel, sondern auch von der großen unglücklichen Liebe vieler Juden zur europäischen Kultur. Die Gewißheit des notwendigen Abschieds durchzieht diesen poetischen, klugen, melancholischen Roman in Briefen – zuerst veröffentlicht 1936/37, kurz nach Lea Goldbergs Einwanderung ins damalige Palästina.
Ventura, a beautiful young Turkish woman, travels to Mexico because her family has arranged her marriage to a fellow Sephardic immigrant. With a trunk full of hopes and traditions, she bravely faces the unknown, as she embarks on a surprising journey to start a new life, far from her homeland. The arrival, the nostalgia, the heart-wrenching uprooting and the adoption of a new homeland will mark her adventure as a migrant, until the long-awaited return to Turkey. Ventura will live each event with intensity and will season her days with the aromas, flavors, rhythms, colors and proverbs from the Far East. Amid recipes and customs inherited from her ancient culture, she will find the best antidote to homesickness, even if her memory cannot forget the Moons of Istanbul.
