Her deathly pale cheeks were marbled by rivulets of tears mingled with makeup, and her exotic, amber-colored eyes gleamed strangely below thick layers of dark eye shadow, making her look like a silent movie star. I got this book from Amman in my last visit and it's amazing so far, I think I'll order the author other two translated books, also I'm jumping to audiobook when busy and the reader Justine Eyre has the most sensational voice ever! It was still an enjoyable read and made for light entertainment. Trying to assume the author's set poetic license in your own translation is a task I wouldn't attempt - even if I could speak German. As you can see, I flew through this book.
