<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In the tradition of "Eat, Pray, Love" and "A Year in Provence" comes a poignantly told, gorgeously illustrated story of setting up house in Morocco. 8 pages of full-color photos.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The Medina -- the Old City -- of Fez is the best-preserved, medieval walled city in the world.</b> Inside this vibrant Moroccan community, internet cafes and mobile phones coexist with a maze of donkey-trod alleyways, thousand-year-old sewer systems, and Arab-style houses, gorgeous with intricate, if often shabby, mosaic work. <p/> While vacationing in Morocco, Suzanna Clarke and her husband, Sandy, are inspired to buy a dilapidated, centuries-old riad in Fez with the aim of restoring it to its original splendor, using only traditional craftsmen and handmade materials. So begins a remarkable adventure that is bewildering, at times hilarious, and ultimately immensely rewarding. <p/> <i>A House in Fez</i> chronicles their meticulous restoration, but it is also a journey into Moroccan customs and lore and a window into the lives of its people as friendships blossom. When the riad is finally returned to its former glory, Suzanna finds she has not just restored an old house, but also her soul.
