1. Sololand
Sololand je dvodelni roman koji prati živote ljudi iz Iraka i drugih raseljenih regiona — njihovu emigraciju, potrage za azilom i posledice ratova, korupcije i represije. Kroz lične priče i oštru društvenu kritiku, knjiga spaja emotivni prikaz sudbina migranata sa napetim, gotovo detektivskim zapletom u drugom delu, bez otkrivanja ključnih obrta.
