The highly acclaimed memoir of growing up in the Middle East  – primarily in Syria – and Europe – primarily in France – continues! 

Here's the lowdown from the publisher:  

In this third volume, (1985–1987), Riad’s mother, fed up with the grinding reality of daily life in the village, decides she cannot take it any longer. When she resolves to move back to France, young Riad sees his father torn between his wife’s aspirations and the weight of family traditions.
