Shida Bazyar, born in 1988, studied writing in Hildesheim, and, in addition to writing, worked in youth education for many years. Her debut novel Nachts ist es leise in Teheran (2016) won the Blogger Literary Award, Ulla Hahn Prize, and Uwe Johnson Prize, among others, and has been translated into Dutch, Farsi, French, and Turkish.

Hani, Kasih and Saya have been friends since they were kids. After years apart, they meet to pick up where they left off. But it's clear, they can't escape the racism that accompanies their daily lives: glances, chatter, hatred and right-wing terror. Until one dramatic night shakes everything up. An uncompromising novel of unconditional friendship.
