A man without a state, without a relationship, without a philosophy. We sat round his small fire, the bells of the sheep tinkling gently close by in the shadows. It was then he told me the story of “the horseman and the snake."

If you were a crow you would look down and see here and there a little patch of green – an oasis where date palms surrounded a well"
