Son of the Mountain

About this book

Son of the Mountain: the story of steadfastness told by the rocks of reality. Have you ever wondered how dreams sprout in the soil of poverty? And how a small heart stands firm against the storms of life, just like an ancient rock in the face of the winds? "Son of the Mountain" is not merely a novel; it is a deep existential journey taking you to the heart of marginalized southern Morocco, where a remote mountain village sits, simple in appearance and deep in secrets. There, between the embrace of the silent mountains, Idris was born, a quiet child carrying the serenity of the spinning top in his eyes and the silence of the majestic mountains in his soul. In a time when masks fall and policies shift, in a spot figuratively called "the unproductive Morocco," Idris grows up an orphan, tasting early the harshness of living and the difficulty of a life that knows no luxury. But his story is not a tale of breaking; it is an epic of patience and steadfastness. It is the true challenge in which a child faces "obstacles" with intelligence ahead of his time and a face bearing features of purity and innocence. Immerse yourself in Idris's life to see through his eyes how "poverty breeds the appetite for freedom and a tendency to rebel," and how a corner of a room becomes the first fortress of dignity in a world that grants nothing for free.
