In post-colonial Morocco, one shepherd boy has managed to obtain the unthinkable--an education. Now Europe, with the opportunity to continue his learning, beckons Jusef from across the water. His story is a testament to the extraordinary path of life when one dares to hope and follow his dreams.
In post-colonial Morocco, among the fragile embers of a newly-fledged nation, one shepherd boy from the mountains has managed to obtain the unthinkable--an education. Now Europe, along with the opportunity to continue his path of learning, beckons Jusef bewitchingly from across the water. So begins a colourful journey of intertwining possibilities and unforgettable encounters as Jusef forges his path in a land far removed from the cultures and traditions of his past. But in a continent engrossed in a new, cultural awakening, Jusef finds himself embarking on an awakening of his own: a transformational quest of perseverance, courage and identity that challenges everything he once knew, for expanses and horizons as yet unspoken. Jusef's story is a testament to the extraordinary path the journey of life can take when one dares to hope, showing above all, that some dreams are worth chasing--even if doing so does prove to be An Odyssey in Blue.

Joseph M Labaki was born in the Rif region of Morocco. After obtaining PhDs from the Universities of Louvain and Southampton, he became Professor du Chair at University of Rabat. Upon moving to Scotland, he gained a BD from University of Edinburgh, where he lives with his wife and two daughters. His first book, 'Inconscient et Sexualite' was in the field of phenomenology. 'A Riffian's Tune' was his first novel.
