bookshelves: cultural-history, essay-s, ethnic, philosophy, travel-literature, morocco

Il s'agit d'un livre sur le rythme de vie d'une des plus importantes villes du monde arabe, de Marrakech au Maroc. Elias Canetti fait revivre devant nos yeux les sons de la place centrale de Marrakech, Djema el-Fna (ou Jamaa el Fna), les cris des muezzins depuis le haut des minarets, les conversations des vendeurs de rue, les stéréotypes coloniaux européens� Tous les sons de cette ville particulière, surnomée la Perle du Sud, se réunissent dans le son du Monde qui nous n'est que trop peu connu.

Da, ali putopis koji je napisao nobelovac Canetti, i sam Jevrej (bar mi se tako čini). To mi je prvo njegovo djelo, njegov je stil pisanja veoma... Ne mogu reči da me odbija... Ali u isto vrijeme me i snažno privlači. Nekakav odnos ljubavi i mržnje, i to intenzivan. Barem se meni tako čini.

If you have the chance to go to Marrakech, you will not regret it, Caroline!! I've been there some ten odd years ago and reading this book was like going there for the second time. It is a magical place indeed!!

Vesna Thank you Janez it must be fascinating as a book and as life's description of the place.
I will certainly read it and would love to visit Morocco.
