Title : Ulysses from Baghdad - Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt - book

Summary :

This new edition includes a writing journal on the theme of immigration.

"My name is Saad Saad, which means Hope Hope in Arabic and Sad Sad in English." Saad wants to leave Baghdad and its chaos, to reach Europe, freedom, a future. But how can he cross borders without a dinar in his pocket? Like Ulysses, he braves storms, survives shipwrecks, escapes opium traffickers, ignores the song of the sirens, and must tear himself away from the enchantments of love. By turns absurd, farcical, and dramatic, Saad's journey of no return begins...

Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt skillfully combines politics and oriental magic, tells the story of a country in distress and joyfully brings ghosts back and speak, mixing tragedy and fantasy. He generously gives us an understanding and a way to dream about the world. Fabienne Pascaud, Télérama.
