Description
In a remote Tunisian village, a devoted beekeeper watches in alarm as an aggressive swarm of hornets threatens his cherished hives and the delicate balance of his community. As he searches for a way to protect the bees, the natural crisis begins to echo the social and political upheavals reshaping the country around him. Blending fable, satire, and social commentary, the novel explores fanaticism, resilience, environmental fragility, and the struggle to preserve harmony in a world marked by division. Lyrical and sharply observant, it offers a compelling portrait of Tunisia in the aftermath of revolution.
