Summary "TIMBOUCTOU, voyage au Maroc au Sahara et au Soudan, Tome 2 (de 2)" by Oskar Lenz is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book provides an account of the author's journey through Morocco, the Sahara Desert, and Sudan, conveying the challenges and experiences he faces along the way. Lenz provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, cultures, and the difficulties of traveling in such harsh environments, as he navigates his way toward the fabled city of Timbuktu. At the start of the narrative, the author departs from Ilerh, describing his preparations for the perilous journey ahead, including loading camels and negotiating for guides. He encounters various characters along the way, such as a dubious guide and members of local tribes, highlighting the dangers posed by bandits and the intricacies of local customs. Lenz paints a detailed picture of the terrains he traverses, the people he meets, and the challenges inherent in desert travel, setting a suspenseful tone for the adventures that lie ahead in his quest to reach Timbuktu.
