Maybe closer to 4 stars.

An English couple accidentally kills a young Muslim fossil seller on their way to a lavish party in a remote area of Morocco. The lavish homestead they are visiting is both fascinating and off putting in its excess and debauchery. I most enjoyed the tensions between the "Godless infidels" (westerners) and the Muslims.

An examination of the assumptions Muslims and westerners make about each other, the ways in which they misunderstand each other, and how they can each feel superior to the other. Of course, in this setting, the westerners are so bacchanalian it's easy to understand the contempt they receive.

Good writing and would make for an interesting discussion.
