description "A journey is a kind of door through which we go out of the known reality to re-enter an unexplored reality that seems a dream.” So begins From Tunis to Kairouan published in several parts in Le Gaulois of December 11th , 1888 and in La Revue des Deux Mondes in 1889. From Tunis to Kairouan is a chronicle, relating a journey that Maupassant made (five years before his death) in two Maghreb colonies, Algeria and Tunisia. In this travel story, Maupassant escapes and wanders to forget. But also to try to "root out" by exploring an unknown land and origins virgin of all sense of artifice, absurdity, ferocity peculiar to the European world and to the French society. Maupassant moves towards a universe where everything is different, natural, simple, fierce, ethnic, cultural, historical, religious, mystical, profane, virtuous, authentic, paradoxical, diverse, mysterious, beautiful and fascinating ; in brief, where everything is Berber, Arabic and North African.
