Look into the eyes of a jinn and you stare into the depths of your own soul...\nWriter and film-maker Tahir Shah - in his 30s, married, with two small children - was beginning to wilt under brash, cramped, ennervating British city life. Flying in the face of friends' advice, he longed to fulfil his dream of finding a place bursting with life, colour, history and romance - somewhere far removed from London - in which to raise a family. Childhood memories of holidaying with his parents, and of a grandfather he barely knew, led him to Morocco and to 'Dar Khalifa', a sprawling and, with the exception of its jinns, long-abandoned residence on the edge of Casablanca's shanty town that, rumour had it, once belonged to the city's Caliph. \nAnd so begins Tahir Shah's gloriously vivid, funny, affectionate and compelling account of how he and his family - aided, abetted and so often hindered by a wonderful cast of larger-than-life local characters: guardians, gardeners, builders, artisans, bureacrats and police (not forgetting the jinns, the spirits that haunt the house) - returned the Caliph's House to its former glory and learned to make this most exotic and alluring of countries their home. \nThe Caliph's House is a story of home-ownership abroad - full of the attendant dramas, anxieties and frustrations - but it is also much more. Woven into the narrative is the author's own journey of self-discovery, of learning about a grandfather he hardly knew, and of coming to love the magical, multi-faceted, contradictory country that is Morocco.

Lahore, Pakistan. Passato. Dopo che una tragedia sconvolge la loro vita, i novelli sposi Misbah e Toufiq si trasferiscono negli Stati Uniti dove aprono il Riposo delle Nuvole, sperando in un nuovo inizio. Juniper, California. Presente. Salahudin e Noor sono più che migliori amici: sono una famiglia. Cresciuti come emarginati nella piccola città desertica di Juniper, si conoscono meglio di chiunque altro. Fino alla “Lite”, che distrugge il loro legame con la repentina furia di un’esplosione. Ora Sal si affanna a gestire il motel di famiglia mentre la salute della madre si deteriora e il padre si abbandona all’alcolismo. Noor, invece, vive una situazione incerta e straziante: lavora nel negozio dello zio e nasconde il suo progetto di iscriversi al college e andarsene per sempre da Juniper. Quando i tentativi di Sal di salvare il motel falliscono, lui e Noor devono chiedersi quale sia il valore dell’amicizia e cosa sia necessario fare per sconfiggere sia i mostri del passato sia quelli che affollano il loro presente.
