Rejected by his tribe and hunted by the kin of the man he killed,
Ukhayyad and his thoroughbred camel flee across the desolate Tuareg
deserts of the Libyan Sahara. Between bloody wars against the
Italians in the north and famine raging in the south, Ukhayyad
rides for the remote rock caves of Jebel Hasawna. There, he says
farewell to the mount who has been his companion through thirst,
disease, lust, and loneliness. Alone in the desert, haunted by the
prophetic cave paintings of ancient hunting scenes and the cries of
jinn in the night, Ukhayyad awaits the arrival of his pursuers and
their insatiable hunger for blood and gold. Gold Dust is a classic
story of the brotherhood between man and beast, the thread of
companionship that is all the difference between life and death in
the desert. It is a story of the fight to endure in a world of
limitless and waterless wastes, and a parable of the struggle to
survive in the most dangerous landscape of all: human society.
