Salim, a young boy who lives in the refugee camp of Gaza, is an avid listener of the radio. He loves to listen to the DJ talk about his favorite books and loves to hear stories from them. One day, Salim overhears something extraordinary: a story from the radio about a hidden oasis that has never been found. The story captivates him and he decides to go on a quest for it with his best friends, just like the protagonist in the book.
As he listens, he is quickly captured by the intensity of this story. He is immediately drawn into the world that is brought to life with an unusual style and detail, much like Paul Sussman's prose. The narrator's voice fits perfectly for this story, giving it a haunting quality that gives you chills. As he listens, Griffin wonders what other tales the author has to tell and if there are any more sitting locked away in his imagination waiting to be discovered.
