About the Book

Stoere vrouwen. Lisette, 84, dement, geestig en avontuurlijk, kijkt anders naar de wereld dan de meeste anderen. Ze gaat de strijd aan met dementie. Haar dochter, een nuchtere succesvolle nieuwslezeres gaat op zoek naar Lisette als die weggelopen is en maakt een maatschappelijk ongewenste keuze. De derde vrouw is Samya, uit Nigeria. Ze is naar Nederland gebracht door vrouwenhandelaren, ontsnapt en komt in de verwarrende wereld van asielzoekers terecht. De levens van de vrouwen raken met elkaar verweven, hetgeen leidt tot surreële gebeurtenissen, waarvan sommige op waarheid berusten. Van de personages is Samya naar voorbeeld van echte vrouwen getekend. Caro Sicking heeft vijf jaar gewerkt met uitgeprocedeerde vrouwen en kinderen, waarvan een aantal slachtoffer van mensenhandel was. De eerste zin: Vanaf de dag dat ik geboren werd, de eerste dag in het jaar waarop de zon scheen over de vlakke stad tussen twee rivieren, waar geen muziek gemaakt werd, geen stoel getimmerd, geen sla verbouwd, de stad waar niets gemaakt werd, maar waar de mensen zich lieten betalen voor het doorschuiven van de arbeid van anderen, bereidde ze me voor op het ergste: leven.
About the Author: Caro studeerde Nederlandse taal- en letterkunde aan de Rijksuniversiteit van Leiden, waarna ze werkzaam was bij ondermeer Galerie Tegenbosch in Eindhoven en Galerie Hüsstege, 's-Hertogenbosch. Lambert Tegenbosch zette haar aan tot schrijven over beeldende kunst. In 1996 verzette Caro haar werkzaamheden naar de sociaal-juridische begeleiding van uitgeprocedeerde vrouwen en kinderen, bleef publiceren in kunstbladen en schreef monografieën over hedendaagse kunstenaars. Sinds 2003 werkt Caro als zelfstandig schrijver, over onderwerpen die raken aan mensenrechten, migratie, politiek, ecologie en kunst. Dit vaak samen met Frank van Empel. In het najaar van 2013 brachten zij 'JES! Towards a Joint Effort Society', over een nieuw politiek engagement model uit. Naast nonfictie publiceerde Caro tevens korte verhalen en de romans 'Nin' en 'Wat de Hel!', waarvan dit de tweede druk is. Frank en Caro hebben samen vijf kinderen en richtten Stichting Afrisina op ter ondersteuning van Ethiopische jongeren in Europa.
