Abstract
"Nel 600 d.C, tra La Mecca e Medina, le sabbie del deserto d'Arabia e Gerusalemme, vediamo Maometto nascere, vivere e morire attraverso le confessioni della sua prima moglie Khadigia, del suo migliore amico, il califfo Abu Bakr, del veemente Khalid, il generale che conquistò l'Iraq nel corso di epiche battaglie, e infine della giovanissima Aisha, divenuta sua sposa all'età di nove anni. Uomo particolare, contestato dai suoi all'inizio della predicazione, Maometto è un orfano arricchitosi grazie al matrimonio con la più matura Khadigia. Mercante e carovaniere prospero visitato da Dio a quarant'anni, profeta e statista a cinquanta, amante e conquistatore infaticabile, Maometto continua ad affascinare e scaldare gli animi più di quattordici secoli dopo la sua morte. Lo stile di Salim Bachi ne ricostruisce la parabola in un'appassionante trasposizione letteraria."--Publisher description.
"Before becoming the prophet of Islam, Muhammad was a simple man of flesh and blood who started life as a poor orphan in the Arabian city of Mecca. Through his union with Khadija, he became a prosperous merchant and caravaneer. He was visited by God at the age of forty to become a prophet and visionary statesman. The Silence of Muhammad is the story of 'this exceptional man' (Bachi). Based on historical fact and legends, the novel presents a fictionalised account of the life of Muhammad told by four key characters: his first wife, Khadija; his closest friend, Caliph Abu Bakr; the fiery warrior, General Khalid; and, his last love Aisha, who became his wife at the age of nine."--Publisher description.
