The Tower of Silenzio - A Refugee's Choice

Erin Caldwell

Beschreibung

War stole Samir Al-Hamidi’s home, his city, and everything he held dear. Now, a refugee in a Greek camp, his architect’s hands, once used to build dreams, craft makeshift shelters against despair.  When a lucrative offer to restore a crumbling medieval tower on the Italian coast arrives, it seems like a miracle—a chance to rebuild his life and reunite with his family. But the Torre di Silenzio whispers a darker story.The tower is not just a picturesque ruin; it’s the vibrant heart of a Roma community, their history etched in its stones, their future threatened by the same forces that shattered Samir’s own world.  As he peels back layers of history, Samir uncovers a stark truth: his restoration project is a blueprint for their displacement.  Caught between the promise of a new beginning and the echoes of his past, he must choose a side.Kayla, a fiery Roma woman whose spirit burns as bright as the tower’s ancient fires, challenges Samir’s assumptions and opens his eyes to the human cost of progress. Their connection, forged amidst the tower's shadows, becomes a crucible, forcing Samir to confront his complicity. Can he betray the trust he’s earned, or will he find the courage to rebuild not just a tower, but a future where cultures coexist, and history isn’t erased for profit?The Tower of Silenzio is a powerful story of displacement, resilience, and the enduring strength of human connection. It's a testament to the power of one man's choice to reshape not just a building, but the very foundations of his conscience.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
