Going back to 534 AD, the author of "Tripoli" introduces Belisarius
and his mission to conquer North Africa and to convert Jews and
Berbers to Christianity. Past this ancient background the story
begins with the bombardment of Tripoli during World War II in a
poor section of the city, where Jews, Christians and Muslims
sustained most of the damage from the war, and were the Jacob
family resided. Sofia, the grandmother's of five finds herself
struggling to keep the family alive, first with the Italians, the
Germans, then the British and finally with the people that she
trusted the most the Libyan Arabs.
