No European writer knows the Islamic shores of the Mediterranean as intimately as Juan Goytisolo, who has lived and worked amongst Muslims for 30 years. In this series of essays Goytisolo celebrates a world where ritual matters and tradition is alive, where saints live, story-tellers weave their enchantments nightly and where honour and dignity preserve the importance of the individual. Like a window onto a parallel universe, Cinema Eden is a fascinating journey in itself, and a thought-provoking reflection on our own society.
