Habib Selmi’s debut novel, from 1988, now in English translation. A young man’s journey to Goat Mountain, a forlorn, dusty, desert Tunisian village, begins in a dilapidated old bus. “I enjoyed this book. I liked its gloomy atmosphere, its strangeness and sense of unfamiliarity. Eerie, funereal, and outstanding!” – Jabra Ibrahim Jabra
