“The day is blisteringly hot. The blinding light of the sun makes every step difficult. The horizon is vast. The sand goes on forever. On we walk in the stillness of noon. Undulating surfaces traced by centuries of wind, rise as mountains of sand. I feel the weight of the sun, the burden of its rays upon me. My eyes cannot measure the width of the horizon. There is a sensation of stillness in the infinite space. Time leaves its secrets amid the voiceless sands. We walk not knowing where the centuries of silence will lead us. And, now the journey begins!” Mamade Kadreebux is an African and a story teller. He is a speaker, poet, author, painter……one may say a man of many talents. Tune in to this edition of “Tam Tam Express” as we take you on a journey into ancient Arabia, a journey into the known and the unknown, a haunting journey into the mysteries of the desert……a journey of discovery!
