From the Sudan to Northern New South Wales, Tarab is an epic, mesmerizing tale of high adventure and the search for meaning. Carl Cleves escapes national service in Belgium to live in South Africa at the height of the Apartheid era. So begins the adventures and quests, wanderings and narrow escapes, mishaps and illuminations of a guitar-toting troubadour in his roles as a young beat poet, law student, single father, ethnomusicologist, relief worker in India and recording star in Brazil. Cleve's page turning memoir is no simple music biography but rather the travel story of an artist's quest for tarab: a place where music and poetry bestow true bliss upon the lucky ones. It's by turns philosophical, funny, adventurous and insightful. Paperback Ed 2008 ( it does have an inscription on the front page )
