I wish someone told me not to get off the car when stopped by a cop as a sign of respect for them.
I wish someone told me not to pick up random kids in the park and kiss them on the cheeks like we do on Morocco without being considered psychos.
In this stunning work of historical fiction, Laila Lalami brings us the imagined memoirs of the first black explorer of Americaa Moroccan slave whose testimony was left out of the official record.
Hicham Sbihi 34 years old, was born and raised in Sale, Morocco. He came to Virginia in 1997 with a desire to succeed in business. He took several computer courses, while working in a French restaurant. His ambition and drive led to uncountable hours spent on the computer building his knowledge of various programs and software, working as many hours as he could at the restaurant.
