Brigitte Paturzo

Every winter for almost twenty years, Brigitte has traveled riding her camel through the Sahara of southeast Algeria and southwest Libya. She has learned Arabic, and Tamahaq, the Tuareg language. Her passion for both cultures comes from her childhood in Algiers.The desert inspires her. It is very present in her book “Between stones and skies in the Libyan Desert”, as in her stories for children, in which she relates the adventures of a young camel, Couscous, and which are illustrated with her own gouaches.Brigitte lives and works in Nice, France.
