Leaving everything behind and escaping to the end of the world—isn’t that what we

. Especially when we’re at the end of our rope and

wonder what comes next. The story’s narrator doesn’t just

about it—she follows that longing. In search of herself, she ends up on

a wild island in the Aegean Sea, where time follows its own rules. There she meets

Hera, a woman close to nature, who shows her what it means to be truly free and fully at one

.

Franziska Jebens tells the story of a woman’s empowering journey toward a new

sense of self, of freedom, the power of new beginnings, of healing, feminine

connection, and what it means to live an authentic life. She

recounts how she herself spent several months in the Cyclades and what it was

it was to write this novel there.

Experience an inspiring evening that delves deep while also

conveys a relaxed island vibe and a positive outlook on life.
