«Ahlam» is the novel by Marc Trévidic, published by JC Lattès in paperback (324 pages, in French).
In 2000, Paul, a French painter, arrives at the Kerkennah Islands seeking peace. There he befriends Farhat, a fisherman, and his children Issam and Ahlam, gifted in music and painting. They dream of creating a work that unites the arts, but the fall of Ben Ali and the advance of Islamism provoke a clash between art and religious fanaticism.
The cover indicates that «Ahlam» means «dreams» in Arabic and that the work was awarded the Prix Maison de la Presse 2016.
It is for readers of contemporary literary fiction interested in the recent history of Tunisia and the clash between art and religious fanaticism.
