His novel « Nour, pourquoi n’ai-je rien vu venir ? », tells in an epistolary theater form, the exchanges between a father, an intellectual and practicing Muslim – living his religion as a message of peace and love – and his daughter, who leaves France for Iraq to join the man she secretly married and who is a Daesh lieutenant.
This play highlights some topics related to the place of education, cultural and religious heritage.
