    Barefoot in Germany – Double Review/Zwei Rezensionen

    barefoot1

    Barfuß in Deutschland ist das Belletristik-Debüt der Ruanda-Deutschen Tete Loeper, das am 30. Dezember 2020 als Taschenbuch erscheint. In der Ich-Form erzählt, folgt es der Geschichte der ruandischen Akademikerin Mutoni, dem Produkt einer unerlaubten Affäre, die in Nyamirambo , Kigali, in Armut aufwächst. Chancen auf eine Erwerbstätigkeit sind schwer zu bekommen und auch Absolventen wie sie werden nicht verschont. So ist Toni, wie sie von Freunden und Familie liebevoll genannt wird, gezwungen, in einem Straßenimbiss zu arbeiten. Nach dem Tod ihrer Mutter ist sie für sich und ihre jüngere Schwester Tendeza verantwortlich.
