Awardwinning novelist Bensalem Himmichs third novel to be translated into English is a vertiginous exploration of one of Islams most radical thinkers, the Sufi philosopher Ibn Sabin. Born in Spain, he was forced to immigrate to Africa because of his controversial views. Later expelled from Egypt, Ibn Sabin made his way to Mecca, where he spent his final years. Himmich follows the philosophers journey, outlining an array of characters he meets along the way who usher in debates of identity and personal responsibility through their interactions and relationships with Ibn Sabin. Set against the backdrop of a politically charged thirteenthcentury Islamic world, Himmichs novel is a rich blend of fact and imagination that recreates the intellectual debates of the time. As the culture of prosperity and tradition was giving way to the chaos created by political and social instability, many Arabs, as Ibn Sabin does in the novel, turned inward toward a spiritual search for meaning. In his fictional portrait of Ibn Sabin, Himmich succeeds in creating a character, with his many virtues and flaws, to whom all readers can relate.
