HIS LIFE AND HIS WORKS ARE DEEPLY INTERLINKED

A FATAL EYE ILLNESSLED HIM

TO TRAVEL AND WRITE

HIS NOVELS ARE A MIXTURE OF REPORTAGE AND PERSONAL REFLECTIONS. THEY ARE SAID TO BE SEMI-AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SINCE HIS PERSONAL EXPERIENCE IS THE BACKGROUND TO FACE MORE SERIOUS ISSUES AS THE IMPACT OF MODERN CIVILIZATION ON THE N A T I V E , A S E N S E O F RES T LESSNESS ROOTED IN HUMAN BEINGS DUE TO THEIR NOMADIC PAST, SEARCH FOR H A P P I N E S S , A M O R E SUSTAINABLE SOCIAL SYSTEM.

IS IT POSSIBLE A

BETTER WORLDFOR EVERYONE?

He invented a new form of novel between travel literature, pure fiction and the novel of ideas.

He called this new way of writing “search”. Generally there is a

practical reason why he starts a

journey but then he seems to set up an emotional

road map.

He follows his whimsical characters, fascinated by their anecdotes, personality. But he also filters his travel experience through his readings, his studies and his reflections.

His books aim at recreating a unique sense of place
