Série unique L1 : “Ulysse from Bagdad” de Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt : ex. 1

“My name is Saad Saad, which means Hope Hope in Arabic and Sad Sad in English.” Saad longs to leave the chaos of Baghdad for Europe, freedom and a future, but how to cross borders without a single dinar? Like Ulysses, he weathers storms, survives shipwrecks, escapes opium smugglers and resists the sirens’ song. By turns absurd, comic and tragic, his one-way journey blends politics and Oriental magic. This edition includes a writer’s journal on the theme of immigration.
