But the wise elder Bassou secretly plans a different solution: to sabotage the motorized pumps that have lowered the water table and nearly destroyed the subsistence farming and herding that support the local way of life. The young newlywed Yidir agrees to help him and eventually becomes a part of the broader fight for Moroccan independence from French colonial rule.</p><p>Portraying an indigenous community undergoing radical change, <em>Le sacrifice des vaches noires</em> reflects on notions of modernity and tradition, science and spirituality, free will and fate, and considers the moral obligations of individuals and community. First published in French in 1992, the novel received international acclaim and is regarded as the single best work about Amazigh culture in southeastern Morocco. It was adapted into the award-winning film <em>Atash</em> (<em>Thirst</em>) by the Moroccan director Sad Chrabi in 2000.</p>...4723656Le sacrifice des vaches noires718718https://www.gandhi.com.mx/le-sacrifice-des-vaches-noires-9781603296649/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4537825/image.jpg?v=638530803659070000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249781603296649_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9781603296649_<p>An oasis community in Morocco hopes to stop a devastating drought by sacrificing black cows to satisfy the spirits.
