»>Am Abend vor dem Meer< ist der Versuch, die Millionen von Familien zu ehren, die auseinandergerissen und gezwungen wurden, ihre Heimat zu verlassen.«Khaled Hosseini Khaled Hosseini, Autor der Weltbestseller »Drachenläufer«, »Traumsammler« und »Tausend strahlende Sonnen«, hat eine Erzählung geschaffen, die auf wenigen Seiten die berührende Geschichte einer Flüchtlingsfamilie aus Syrien umreißt. Am 2. September 2015 ertrank Alan Kurdi bei dem Versuch, sich über das Mittelmeer nach Europa in Sicherheit zu bringen. Er war drei Jahre alt und stammte aus Syrien. Khaled Hosseini war selbst ein Flüchtlingsjunge, der fern von seinem Heimatland Afghanistan aufwuchs. Diese Erfahrung von Trennung und Heimweh prägt die einzigartige emotionale Kraft seiner Bücher und wurde für ihn schriftstellerischer Antrieb wie gesellschaftspolitischer Auftrag: Seit vielen Jahren unterhält er eine eigene Stiftung und ist Sonderbotschafter des UNHCR. In »Am Abend vor dem Meer« kommt beides zusammen. Die atmosphärisch dichte Erzählung, eindringlich farbig illustriert von Dan Williams, erzählt in einem Brief eines Vaters an seinen Sohn vom Abschied von zu Hause und der Gefahr der Überfahrt auf der Flucht. Die Einnahmen des Autors aus diesem Buch gehen an die Khaled Hosseini Foundation (www.khaledhosseinifoundation.org) und den UNHCR, das Flüchtlingshilfswerk der Vereinten Nationen, um lebensrettende Nothilfemaßnahmen zu finanzieren und dadurch Flüchtlingen überall auf der Welt eine bessere Zukunft zu ermöglichen (www.unhcr.org/khaled-hosseini).

The #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns, and And the Mountains Echoed responds to the heartbreak of the current refugee crisis with this deeply moving, beautifully illustrated short work of fiction for people of all ages, all over the world. A short, powerful, illustrated book written by beloved novelist Khaled Hosseini in response to the current refugee crisis, Sea Prayer is composed in the form of a letter, from a father to his son, on the eve of their journey. Watching over his sleeping son, the father reflects on the dangerous sea-crossing that lies before them. It is also a vivid portrait of their life in Homs, Syria, before the war, and of that city's swift transformation from a home into a deadly war zone. Impelled to write this story by the haunting image of young Alan Kurdi, the three-year-old Syrian boy whose body washed upon the beach in Turkey in September 2015, Hosseini hopes to pay tribute to the millions of families, like Kurdi's, who have been splintered and forced from home by war and persecution, and he will donate author proceeds from this book to the UNHCR (the UN Refugee Agency) and The Khaled Hosseini Foundation to help fund lifesaving relief efforts to help refugees around the globe.
