An exploration of myth, passion and loyalty from the Lebanon's troubled past, The Rock of Tanios is another superbly rich and rewarding novel from the author of Samarkand and Leo the African. Expertly controlling his multi-faceted narrative with prose of great beauty and power, Maalouf delves into the history of an extraordinary life: that of Tanois, child of the mountains.
Amin Maalouf is a Lebanese journalist and writer. He was formerly director of the weekly international edition of the leading Beirut daily an-Nahar, and editor-in-chief of Jeune Afrique. He now lives with his wife and three children in Paris.
レビュー

Brilliant.
Mr Maalouf is probably my firm favourite fiction author today (FFFAT). His gift is to transport you effortlessly into the past, whether that be ancient mazdayasnan Ctesiphon/Tisfon or muslim Samarqand or anyplace he wishes. Just brilliant.

A beautiful historic portrait through the life of a boy and father
Lovely way to show the history of a country at a certain period through the eventful life of Tanios and his father. Their daily issues, their daily fun, troubles, traditions, all intertwined with the events that shaped the country at the time. The use of the traditional Lebanese nicknames and jokes was very nicely portrayed and helped make me feel as if I just jumped back in time to witness that era. A great read, got me attached since page one, and couldn't let go of the book until it finished. Very simple yet very meaningful and full of beautiful stories that will catch your imagination with more historical knowledge.
