Is the story of San Mao's wandering true?

The Wandering Story of Three Hair was a fictional novel about a young woman named José, who lived a wandering life in the Sahara Desert. This story first appeared in the works of Spain's Louis Safon and was later adapted into various forms of novels, movies, and television dramas. Although José's story and the local customs had been restored to a certain extent, the plot and character settings of the entire story were fictional and had nothing to do with the Sahara Desert and local culture in reality.
