It discusses these themes using ideas from physiology, religion, and emotions.




Plot


The novel tells the story of Asouf, a lone bedouin who loves and respects the desert and identifies with its creatures. Asouf knows exactly where he can find moufflon, wild sheep known for their meat, who survive in the remote mountainous desert of southern Libya. But Asouf and the moufflon are both threatened by hunters who have already slaughtered the once numerous desert gazelles.




Reception


The Guardian listed it as one of the best books on Libya. Kirkus Reviews described it as "a winning combination of fable, political statement, and lyrical lament for the past".
