Savages: The Wedding - E-book - ePub

Much of the dinner table chatter revolves around Jasmine's boyfriend; Fouad Nerrouche, a well-known actor with the same Algerian origins as her father, who has just publicly endorsed Chaouch's candidacy.
However shallow it may seem, it's difficult to ignore the influence of celebrity support in this complex and unpredictable race .
