The Journey to Mecca
Hagar Spohr
The report of a German woman on a journey to holy sites in the Orient: Kerbala, Baghdad, Mecca, Medina, Damascus, and Jerusalem. "...Exhausted but blissful, I lean against a marble pillar, surrounded by pilgrims, with a view of the greatest sanctuary of the Islamic world, the Kaaba. It is the direction Muslims from all countries face in prayer. Just a few meters from what the faithful call a foot of God's throne, I sit after weeks of arduous travel, overcoming many dangers and difficulties, before a great goal, and yet it is a mystery: How is it that I, daughter of German parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents, have found my way here, to a place that millions of people consider the navel of the world and which my parents did not know?..."
