Many years ago, in the strange and magnificent southern part of the Sahara Desert, Lieutenant Saint-Yavi and Captain Morange went on a tragic expedition in the Sahara Desert, but in the end he was the only one who came back alive. Many years later, Lieutenant Saint-Yavi finally told Lieutenant Ferrier the truth and his final choice: at that time, he and Morange accidentally became the captives of the indigenous Queen Antinea. In order to completely tame them, the beautiful but cruel queen drove them away towards betrayal and death... The story takes love as the main line and describes the French society in the early 20th century and the scene of the African colonies at that time. It is full of exotic customs and legends, and has won the French Academy Novel Award.
