Sobre IBD

First Published in 2002. Pierre Loti was a member of a diplomatic mission to the Sultan of Morocco at Fez, and in this book he gives us an extraordinarily fascinating account of the journey. The departure of the caravan from Tangier, the encampments, the nightly arrival of the Mouna, the crossing of the Oued-M’Cazen in flood, the fantasies and ’powder-play’ of the Arab horsemen, and the magnificent state entry into Fez, are described in a succession of vivid vignettes.
