Description : Far from his Arabian homeland, Kreeni finds himself in Paris, where he struggles to cope with the contrast between the harsh conditions he has left behind – the unforgiving desert and repressive regime – and the sparkle and gaiety of the French capital. In danger of succumbing to the temptations of Left Bank bohemianism, Kreeni is forced to examine himself and his beliefs. He must look at and judge his own behaviour, when faced with all the sexual and political freedom of seductive Parisian cafأ© life, against his isolation, away from his family, friends and more familiar scenery. Set firmly in the pre-9/11 world this is a modern romance made even more relevant with the fears, religious tensions and racial overtones that have overtaken us today. Season of Mists is written from the heart by a man who knows Arabia and the West intimately, and who understands the difficulties faced by today’s Muslim in a secular and seemingly hostile West.About The Author : Mohammed T Al-Rashid was born in Saudi Arabia and educated in Lebanon, America and England. His previous novels include The Veiled Sun and Saffron Threads.
