[recommended for ages 15 and up]
»Where you come from« is set in a village where only thirteen inhabitants remain, a country that no longer exists today and a divided family that is mine. »Where you come from« is a book about my homelands, both remembered and imagined. A book about language and shame, settling in and getting by, luck and death.
Saša Stanišić lived in Heidelberg from 1992 until 2004. As a teenager, he lived in Emmertsgrund and went to the Internationale Gesamtschule Heidelberg (International Comprehensive School). He covers this time in his novel that received the German Book Price in 2019: He describes growing up in Germany in the 1990ies during the Yugoslav Wars. After a successful stage adaptation, »Where you come from« now finally conquers the big stage of the Theater und Orchester Heidelberg.
