But not in the mundane ways one may think.The original navigator for Captain Romel in book two is now the Captain of the ship christened The Royal Court of Italy, now called Elenora in respect to the Sapphire of Elenora.The tale continues with the ultimate revenge scheme to exact justice on those who killed Peter Di'Barichi. But the plan and scheme are deep, and beyond what the young people who befriended Peter could have ever imagined.The third section of the book takes the desert-borne Ragad onto the Sapphire, as the navigator and wife of Captain Najem, on a voyage of bravery and discovery.The final chapter meets up with Bint Eid, renamed Hamea bint Samer by the bin Samer tribe of Saudi Arabia. She is the new head of the POG (Paranormal Operations Group), and although she doesn't experience the frightening encounters in book one and two, she finally has a chance to have friends, although they are few. ungekürzt.

Bitter Orange Tree (eBook, ePUB)
An extraordinary novel from a Man Booker International Prize-winning author that follows one young Omani woman as she builds a life for herself in Britain and reflects on the relationships that have made her from a "remarkable" writer who has "constructed her own novelistic form" (James Wood, The New Yorker). Zuhur, an Omani student at a British university, is caught between the past and the present. As she attempts to form friendships and assimilate in Britain, she can't help but ruminate on the relationships that have been central to her life. Most prominent is her strong emotional bond with Bint Amir, a woman she always thought of as her grandmother, who passed away just after Zuhur left the Arabian Peninsula. As the historical narrative of Bint Amir's challenged circumstances unfurls in captivating fragments, so too does Zuhur's isolated and unfulfilled present, one narrative segueing into another as time slips, and dreams mingle with memories. The eagerly awaited new novel by the winner of the Man Booker International Prize, Bitter Orange Tree is a profound exploration of social status, wealth, desire, and female agency. It presents a mosaic portrait of one young woman's attempt to understand the roots she has grown from, and to envisage an adulthood in which her own power and happiness might find the freedom necessary to bear fruit and flourish.- Shop: buecher

Frauen und Männer: Gesichter des Islams 2, Hörbuch, Digital, 24min
Mohammed ibn Abdallah, der Prophet des Islams, hat mit 25 Jahren zum ersten Mal geheiratet. Die damals 40-jährige Kaufmannsfrau Khadidscha bint Khuwaylid hatte ihm einen Heiratsantrag gemacht. Khadidscha ist die bemerkenswerteste Frau der islamischen Geschichte. Vor der Ehe mit Mohammed war sie zweimal verheiratet und hatte mehrere Kinder. Zeit seiner Ehe mit Khadidscha hat Mohammed keine weitere Frau geheiratet, obwohl die Vielehe damals in Mekka üblich war. Nach dem Tod seiner einflussreichen Gattin floh Mohammed von Mekka nach Medina, wo er auch zum politischen Führer seiner aufstrebenden Gemeinde wurde. Mohammed heiratete in seiner letzten Lebensdekade ein Dutzend Frauen, die wie seine erste Gemahlin den Ehrentitel "Mutter der Gläubigen" erhielten. Die herausragende Bedeutung seiner Frauen bei der Entstehung des Islams hat nicht verhindern können, dass sich Frauen im Laufe der islamischen Geschichte immer neuen von Männern entworfenen Regeln beugen mussten. Islamische Frauenrechtlerinnen berufen sich heute verstärkt auf das frühislamische Erbe. O-Töne: Hatoon Al-Fasi (engl, darüber dt.

Sterne über Sansibar (eBook, ePUB)
Ein Märchen wie aus Tausendundeiner Nacht - nach einer wahren Geschichte Sansibar, Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Die Luft erfüllt vom Duft der Blüten und Gewürze, endlose Tage in herrlichen Gärten und prunkvollen Gemächern, umsorgt und geliebt von der Familie - Salimas Leben im Palast könnte schöner nicht sein. Doch die unbeschwerten Jahre der Tochter des Sultans von Sansibar finden ein jähes Ende, als ihre Eltern sterben und Salima umziehen muss - in die direkte Nachbarschaft des deutschen Kaufmanns Heinrich. Die beiden verlieben sich, und schon bald wird die junge Frau schwanger. Für eine muslimische Prinzessin ist ein uneheliches Kind undenkbar, einen Ungläubigen zu heiraten kommt allerdings auch nicht infrage. So bleibt als Ausweg nur die Flucht nach Hamburg, in Heinrichs Heimat. Doch was erwartet Salima in dem kalten, fremden Land? Dieser farbenprächtige Roman erzählt das außergewöhnliche Leben von Salima bint Said (der späteren Emily Ruete) und spannt den Bogen von einer sorglosen Kindheit auf der Gewürzinsel Sansibar bis in die Hansestadt Hamburg - und darüber hinaus. Ein wechselvolles Leben, mal abenteuerlich, oft tragisch und im Spannungsfeld von zwei Kulturen, zwei Religionen, zwei Welten. Eine Geschichte über die Bedeutung von Heimat und Herkunft, über Entwurzelung und den Machtkampf kolonialer Interessen - und mit einer unvergesslichen Heldin. eBooks von beHEARTBEAT - Herzklopfen garantiert.- Shop: buecher
