SYNOPSIS

Hussein Al-Barghouti, tells us a memory of his childhood in Palestine in the 1960s: the death of his younger brother. The story of this death is, on the one hand, a testament to the local tradition of burying children in a Roman cave called Al-Fustuqya, "the pistachio". On the other hand, the author transports us into a story of natural landscapes metamorphosed by spiritual poetry.
