โœฆ Synopsis


Sie sind zu zweit, von Anfang an, die Zwillinge Alissa und Anton. In der kleinen Zweizimmerwohnung im Moskau der postsowjetischen Jahre verkrallen sie sich in die Locken des anderen, wenn die Eltern aufeinander losgehen. Spรคter, in der westdeutschen Provinz, streunen sie durch die Flure des Asylheims, stehlen Zigaretten aus den Zimmern fremder Familien und riechen an deren Parfumflaschen. Und noch spรคter, als Alissa schon ihr Mathematikstudium in Berlin geschmissen hat, weil es sie vom Boxtraining abhรคlt, verschwindet Anton spurlos. Irgendwann kommt eine Postkarte aus Istanbul โ€“ ohne Text, ohne Absender. In der flirrenden, zerrissenen Stadt am Bosporus und in der eigenen Familiengeschichte macht sich Alissa auf die Suche โ€“ nach dem verschollenen Bruder, aber vor allem nach einem Gefรผhl von Zugehรถrigkeit jenseits von Vaterland, Muttersprache oder Geschlecht.

Wer sagt dir, wer du bist? Davon und von der unstillbaren Sehnsucht nach dem Leben selbst und seiner herausfordernden Grenzenlosigkeit erzรคhlt Sasha Marianna Salzmann in ihrem Debรผtroman ยปAuรŸer sichยซ. Intensiv, kompromisslos und im besten Sinn politisch.
