The last tobacco fields

Product details

In simple narrative language, and without embellishment, Taher Al-Zahrani writes a beautiful story about an isolated village in Tihama, about the story of the grandfather and tobacco, about the transformations of the village after the road reached it, which connects it to the city, and to the state that began to impose its laws on it.

"The Last Tobacco Fields" is a novel that symbolizes the end of that life, which changes just as the fortress that symbolizes that life, for which the longing never fades, changes:

"Every time I try to get away from the place, fate brings me back to it."
Many things can be told about that period, which holds a reservoir of stories derived from facts, from which the narrator creates an enjoyable fantasy.
