Based on the author's memories of a "happy village with its own idiot and mosque" in Morocco, these surreal, interlinked stories depict a dreamlike world of spiritual and sexual awakening.
The heady imagination of a young boy - peopled by veiled women, suggestive vegetables; malevolent djinns and dismembered war heroes - is set against his cosmopolitan adulthood in Amsterdam, where the prodigal son discovers he can never entirely leave his past behind him.
