Susanne Scholl. Emma movchyt. (Emma Is Silent)
"A meeting of two women, two cultures, and two destinies – so different that it's hard to imagine: Emma is from Vienna, while Zarema – from Grozny. One of them is a granny with her minor routine chores, the other – a mother struggling for a decent life for herself and for her son. This story allows us to take a closer look at where our world is changing.
Emma – Vienna pensioner – is concerned about that the world is no longer what it used to be. Zarema came to Vienna from Grozny. She only preserved her life due to her own desperate courage: in the second Chechen war she lost everything she had, smugglers took her and her son Shamil to Vienna. Zarema needs political asylum, Emma needs assistance with her housework. Their path intersect, destinies combine..."

And there is considerably more "November-ness", however strange this might be, than in "Requiem...".
