Rezensionen
"Tahir Shah's highly readable account of moving his young family to Casablanca is.... an outrageously black comedy [written] with the straightest of poker faces."-The Washington Post Book Review

"A wonderfully entertaining book - Tahir Shah's talent is to make you
laugh while you are admiring the insights given by his most original
and lively view of life."-Doris Lessing

"Reminiscent of Peter Mayle's A Year in Provence."-Entertainment Weekly
