Algeria, Rahwun the Storyteller reveals the fables which constitute the history of
that wonderous country:fables of times of
intrigue and of strife, of families uprooted and children sold, of wars and war.Here the strands woven to form that elaborate tapestry, here the threads which
will pull it apart.And at the centre of it
all, Rahwun, a wanted man, a political fugitive, spinning, fleeing from one adversary into the arms of another, telling the tales whilst his listeners piece together the ragged fragments which make the mysterious whole.
