EMILE TUBIANA was born into a French family in Tunisia and spent his childhood immersed in the country’s uniquely diverse ethnic and cultural heritage, which he grew to love and respect. Throughout his life, this exposure has provided him with a strong foundation, as he traveled extensively and lived in several different countries.In The Spider’s Web, a story set at the turn of the 20th century, he draws from that rich tapestry of experiences, transposing settings and circumstances, as he weaves the life journey of John de Montaigne, who travels to distant places and encounters difficult situations, where he must come to a decision. His last decision will surprise everyone. 3
