TV reporter Sophia Maier is going on a reading tour with her book “Heart of Barbed Wire”
Between War and Hope – A Plea for Humanity
What remains of humanity if we simply look away? “Heart of Barbed Wire” is a moving look at the reality of war and flight – honest, close, and uncomfortable.
The award-winning journalist takes you to the world’s crisis zones: to Ukraine, Afghanistan, Syria, refugee camps in Lebanon, the West Bank, and Greece. There she meets women, children, and families – people who have lost everything.
With relentless clarity, she tells of destruction, loss, and hope, raises uncomfortable questions about the West’s responsibility, and documents life in exceptional situations.
Maier meets people who are fighting for justice – and in doing so, demonstrate that humanity is never completely lost. Her book is a warning and a call to take a closer look.
