I Was Born with Sand in My Eyes

The harmattan is a literary expression of the life of the Nomads and Tuaregs. In this book, the author explores the different aspects of the lives of the men and women of the desert. He is a child of the desert, living in the body of an adult man, but his soul has preserved its innocence and sometimes its naivety. The author is therefore a child whose artistic sensibility can be felt in each of his texts. As he takes us on a journey, he shows us the relationship between the Tuareg father and his son and the transmission of values between them. He tells us about his love, his spirituality through Sufism, politics, and modernism. He opens his heart to the maternal love he has received. Finally, the author introduces us to his native Africa, its hospitality, and its cultures. Sometimes, too, the author invites us to climb aboard his camel for an excursion among the Dunes.
