Der Weg zu einem glücklichen und erfüllten Leben verläuft selten geradeaus. Im Gegenteil – denn überraschenderweise führen uns Ängste, Probleme und Gewohnheiten, die wir am liebsten sofort aus unserem Leben verbannen würden, zum Glück. Diese Hürden und Hindernisse bringen uns zum Denken, lassen uns kreativ nach Lösungen suchen und so an uns selbst wachsen. Durch ihre einfühlsame Art des Schreibens, ihr Wissen aus der Psychologie und ihre philosophische Weitsicht öffnet uns Brianna Wiest die Augen.

Both men and women enjoy thrillers, mystery, and crime. Yet it may still feel not quite respectable, somehow a guilty (sorry!) pleasure. Do these novels so often categorized as genre offer something the literary novel does not? The market is enormous, perhaps the largest in publishing. It is a cliché which may be true that only the Bible – say - outsells Agatha Christie. And then there are films and television, either original or adapted from novels.

In Traveling without Moving, Coleman shares intimate essays from her life: her childhood in Chicago—growing up in poverty with four siblings and a single mother—and the empowering decision to leave her first marriage. She writes about being the only Black student in a prestigious and predominantly White creative writing program, about institutional racism and implicit bias in writing instruction, about the violent legacies of racism in the US housing market, about the maternal health disparities seen across the country and their implication in her own miscarriage.
