About
Poet, writer, and philosopher, Fola was born in 1984, in Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs. He spent his childhood in Egypt, the traveled to Switzerland and graduated from Hotel Institute Montreux, in Switzerland.
Montreux was the turning point in Fola’s life, back then he was never fond of writing, nor reading. Fola never intended to be a writer, but at the age of 20, he began recording his distinct thoughts down, for none could understand them.
Papers accrued, as Fola realized that it was meant to be, he combined all these thoughts, and began his writing voyage, with the Seed.

Story Behind The Book
Throughout our lives, many things may lead us to forget who we truly are.
Result? Slowly yet inevitably, cages and chains enslave our thoughts and
slay our freedoms.
Down the ages, men have thus fallen for hosts of illusions, confusions and fears
- except for the seven dreamers whose stories this book contains. These mad
truth-seekers (who oddly share the same name) did not follow others' flow to slavery;
rather, they heeded a voice in their heads that led them to obsession with an idea
long thought extinct, buried beneath the sands of time: The Seed.
In this book you will take a rollicking metaphysical ride that starts in ancient Egypt,
moves to the Grand Greek Era, then to Rome, Arab Alexandria, on piratic High Seas,
to Switzerland and circuses, into a Christian era interlude, then to modern Egypt (2007)
and lastly, to a sort of Garden of Visionary Epiphany that will leaves you on and past
the brink of enlightenment...
