It Wasn't the Right Mountain, Mohammad

'It Wasn't the Right Mountain, Mohammad', 2020

“Abraham and Isaac are on their way to Mount Moriah, towards the sacrifice. A boat filled with rams is sailing on a dark and deep sea, full of bottles with letters that no one has ever opened. But I opened one of these bottles and read the letter. It was written by a Mohammad, son of Sabah, who simply thanked God without asking him for anything in return. This is where my story begins, a story of a troubled shepherdess, who suddenly finds something she was looking for. And loses it. That’s the way it is.”
