- Summary:
- "Omar Youssef Suleiman says here goodbye to his childhood, that of a small Syrian raised in a "normal" Salafist family, that is to say, like most boys around him, as a small terrorist. Farewell to Syria plagued by the tyrant state. Farewell to the Arabic language by giving birth to a French literary writing. Farewell to the Orient by the minute description - as if to forget nothing - of the events that led him to adopt and then reject his education, to become dissident, on the long road of refugees to France. This world that he portrays is not Westernized, he is steeped in Islam, sensitivity and humor. It is the book of a journey: between two countries, two civilizations, two languages. The book of a Frenchman."--Translation of back cover.
