JimCliff, an ambitious youth, secures the confidence and words of a Moroccan shaman, who, through strange divinations, assures him that he would gain entrance into the secondary school of his choice and, while there, wrestle with forces beyond him. This is followed by predictions that he would end up marrying an American woman. One of these two predictions comes to pass quickly; the other requires time, patience, inquiries, hard work, restiveness, and passing through the opaque precincts of life's stark and depressing challenges... Words of a Shaman strokes remorselessly the fine line between fantasy and subtle reality, evoking whimsically the principles of the present and the future, as outlined in one's conformity to the dictates of one's checkered destiny.
