Description

In the second volume of Sattouf's bestselling graphic memoir (covering the years 1984-1985), young Riad begins his first year of school in Syria, learns how to read and write in Arabic, gets to know his father's family and - in spite of his blonde hair and the yearly summer holidays in France with his mother - tries his best to become a good little Syrian and make his father proud.
The harsh life in the village and the tough days spent in the school at Ter Maaleh; the visits to the black market in Homs and the dinners with the wealthy family members close to the regime; the suffocating walks in the stiflingly hot ancient city of Palmyra: this second book once again plunges the reader in the absurd and darkly funny daily life of the Sattoufs under the Hafez Al-Assad dictatorship.
