No Libri GmbH No One Is Coming Paperback

At thirty-two, alone in her apartment in Kazakhstan during the first spring of COVID-19, Leyla Ospan gave herself an injection because there was no one else left in the room to do it for her. That moment became the question that would define the next six years of her life: if no one is coming to save you, what do you do with that information?No One Is Coming follows Leyla from Kazakhstan to Turkey to Bali, through a marriage that starved her slowly, a love so consuming she nearly disappeared inside it, and an island that promised healing but cost her son the stability he needed most. It's a memoir about a woman who kept looking for someone, or somewhere, else to make her safe - long after she already had everything she needed to do it herself.Honest, unflinching, and often surprising, this is a book for anyone who has waited for a country, a marriage, or a person to finally make them feel safe - and started to suspect the waiting itself might be what's keeping them stuck.
