Description
Inspired by the Moroccan vacations of his childhood, Tahir Shah decides to buy a house in Casablanca and moves his family there from England in hopes of breaking out the monotony of life in London and exposing his children to a more carefree childhood.
This book is beautifully written and endlessly enthralling. Shah is a masterful writer and storyteller, and you'll be glued to his every word. While dealing with corruption, the local bureaucracy, thieves, gangsters, jinns causing havoc, and the hassle that seems to come with even the most simple interactions, Shah weaves a story that is simply one of the best in travel.
