THE TRACE OF TEARS · My Life in a Foreign Country · 2008-05-22

This is the autobiography of a woman who has become strong enough to fight for herself and for other women.

After her international bestseller Tränenmond (Night, Moon, Tears) now comes Ouarda Saillos fascinating continuation of a biography full of human and political tragedies and hopes.

Frankly and shockingly, Ouarda Saillo describes in Night, Moon, Tears (Lübbe, 2004) the social reality in Morocco to which she is personally subjected. With her siblings she lived with relatives who for years abused them and humiliated them.

Their mother was murdered by their father. And she harboured a growing rage against a social system in which women are second class citizens.

Now, Ouarda Saillo reports about the integration efforts in a new home country and the threats against her. Criticizing the dreadful conditions in Morocco is a taboo, but Ouarda Saillo has learned to fight – against the outmoded structures in Morocco and the resistance in her new homeland.

The Trace of Tears is the book of a woman who has become strong enough to fight for herself and for other women.

The press on Night, Moon, Tears:

“Fluently and grippingly told, the book provides an intimate glimpse of women’s lives in what people think of as westernized Morocco.”
—————————————————
Ouarda Saillo was born in the house of her Berber grandmother on the edge of the Moroccan Sahara in 1974. She suffered a fateful childhood.

After école secondaire she worked as a waitress and sales assistant. At nineteen she freed herself from her social chains and moved to Germany.

Today, she lives in her own family and that of her second husband in Munich and works there as a nursery school teacher.
