As incredible as it may seem, plants are capable of feeling a wide range of emotions. What’s more, it has been recently shown that they also know how to share what they’re feeling in ways that range from simple to extraordinary.

Un aller simple
Didier Van Cauwelaert starts with a clever idea. A child made parent less and brought up by gypsies, never knowing anything about his true parentage or heritage. His adopted family give him Moroccan papers because they are cheaper. So when he is framed for stealing the engagement ring which was to seal his marriage to Lila, and arrested by the immigration authorities, the only papers he has are Moroccan.
A new friendly 'be nice to immigrants' policy means that not only is he going to be repatriated to Morocco but he is to have is own attaché humanitaire. Jean-Paul accompanies him on to the plane in order to resettle Aziz back in his home town. But Aziz is from Marseille with an accent to match. When Jean-Pierre asks whereabouts in Morocco he's from, Aziz just points to place on the map at random. Somewhere which just happens to be in the middle of the Atlas Mountains. He embellishes his story, saying that it is in a lost valley run by a race of grey men.
As the story proceeds, it has strong hints of Lost Horizon, the 1933 novel of Shangrila by James Hilton, made into a film in 1937 by Franz Capra.
In Morocco, they are helped by Valerie who knows the area and conspires with Aziz to play his story. Both Aziz and Jean-Pierre have lost their roots and towards the end it is as if they become one, or perhaps as if they swop roles, with Aziz settling in Jean-Pierre’s home region.
Most certainly a book to read a second time, I think.
