The Austrian-Iraqi author, journalist, and filmmaker Susanne Ayoub will read from her latest novel “The Jewel Garden” (Verlag LangenMüller Munich 2016) at the 12th Literary Salon, presented by the Austrian Consulate General on January 12, 2017.
The novel describes a love between two cultures against the political background of Iraq in the 1950s and 1960s, the fall of the monarchy, and the subsequent civil war. This is the time into which the author was born. During the reading, the author will also briefly outline her multimedia project “Baghdad Fragments.”
