A review by ajkhn
A Palace in the Old Village by Tahar Ben Jelloun
4.0
Kind of brutal at times, but, its the story of the lies and truths an old man tells to himself. So what else could you expect?
Its eye-opening to read this as a young parent, not yet aware of the cruelties I’ll conduct as a parent. You could read this as a gritty reboot of Fiddler On The Roof, maybe? It’s good - don’t get me wrong. But deffo not a page turner.
