The play "Love and
Hate: Let Us Not Forget Aylan Kurdi" is a thriller that portrays the
current migration crisis in Europe.
The clash of
civilizations—the historical rivalry between extremists who use religious
radicalism to spread hatred and intolerance, and fundamentalists striving for
ideological hegemony—forms the backdrop in which the plot unfolds.
The Islamic State decides to
carry out, in Germany, a terrorist act that would go down in history as the
largest and most terrifying ever perpetrated on the planet.
Contextualizing philosophy
and geopolitics, history and social sciences, state policies, and strategic
planning, the characters move through the story provoking and challenging the
reader to deeply reflect on the values most cherished by Western-Christian
culture: democracy and freedom, justice and individual rights.
Three homosexual women lead
tense and intense discussions about this traumatic world where—despite the
advances in politics—anger, hatred, intransigence, sectarianism, unchecked
violence, and fanaticism still prevail.
Mullahs, imams, caliphs,
ayatollahs, Islamic fundamentalism on one side; on the other, authoritarian
experiences in the West such as Nazism and Communism, the KGB and the
Stasi—forming the backdrop that feeds the ferocious beast of violence—lay the
groundwork for the strengthening of nationalism, the closing of borders, the
building of walls, and the disdain for the ‘other's’ culture, the ‘foreigner's’
references, and the suffering endured by refugees and the marginalized.
The terrorists of ISIS plan
to detonate six nuclear bombs in Berlin, pulverizing Germany and destroying all
of Central Europe. Will they succeed in carrying out this terrifying plan?
Within this setting, debates about beauty and ugliness, hatred and love,
authoritarianism and democracy, sexuality and individual freedoms, Islamic
fundamentalism and civil rights are weighed.
Kazal al-Atassi—a poet whose
limbs were amputated and body disfigured by terrorist attacks in Syria—and her
ex-partner, Manal al-Atassi, whose immense beauty hypnotizes and captivates,
are suspected of being part of the Islamic State's terrorist brigade. Anna
Decker, the military intelligence officer tasked with uncovering the sordid
plot. Bismarck Adenauer, a former Stasi agent from the intelligence agency of
the former German Democratic Republic. Along with characters emerging from the
shadows of the CIA, KGB, Mossad, and Russian and Chinese agencies...
Dear reader, dive into this
thriller that—by denouncing the gravest migration crisis since the Second World
War—vividly and disturbingly blends reality and fiction.
