Ethiopia is a Christian island surrounded by Muslim countries and Harar is the other island within that island: a difficult city for sorting, the fourth holiest city of Islam with almost a hundred mosques within its walls, and the place where the poet Arthur Rimbaud chose to refuge in his flight from Europe.

Consumption, ritualized in everyday life of the city, provides its inhabitants a unique identity.
