Download or read book Marrakech Noir written by Fouad Laroui and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique anthology of crime fiction features 15 original stories of “scandals, smugglers, and other sordid tales” by award-winning Moroccan authors (CrimeReads). At first glance, Marrakech may seem like an odd setting for noir fiction. Contemporary Moroccans call it The Joyful City—a place where locals are happy to joke about gossip and quick to forget stories of crime. But in Marrakech Noir, some of Morocco’s finest authors address old wrong that have been kept hidden behind the city’s ancient gates, and spin contemporary tales of poverty, grift, and violence in this global tourist destination. Marrakech Noir features brand-new stories by Fouad Laroui, Allal Bourqia, Abdelkader Benali, Mohamed Zouhair, Mohamed Achaari, Hanane Derkaoui, Fatiha Morchid, Mahi Binebine, Mohamed Nedali, Halima Zine El Abidine, My Seddik Rabbaj, Yassin Adnan, Karima Nadir, Taha Adnan, and Lahcen Bakour.
Download or read book The Last Storytellers written by Richard Hamilton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05-26 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marrakech is the heart and lifeblood of Morocco's ancient storytelling tradition. For nearly a thousand years, storytellers have gathered in the Jemaa el Fna, the legendary square of the city, to recount ancient folktales and fables to rapt audiences. But this unique chain of oral tradition that has passed seamlessly from generation to generation is teetering on the brink of extinction. The competing distractions of television, movies and the internet have drawn the crowds away from the storytellers and few have the desire to learn the stories and continue their legacy. Richard Hamilton has witnessed at first hand the death throes of this rich and captivating tradition and, in the labyrinth of the Marrakech medina, has tracked down the last few remaining storytellers, recording stories that are replete with the mysteries and beauty of the Maghreb.

Download or read book Shopping in Marrakech written by Susan Simon and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2009 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to choose among the thousands of shops, stores, and souk stalls? And how to evenfindthem in this labyrinthine city, where street names and addresses seldom appear on the city map? Let Susan Simon guide you through the winding alleys, hidden courtyards, and bustling markets to uncover the best of the treasures of Marrakech: luxurious caftans; bejeweled shoes and slippers; ethnic jewelry; handmade decorative objects for the home; beautifully embroidered linens; colorful ceramics; sequined antique shawls; gold-encrusted glassware. The stylish author and the photographer (who has appeared on the world’s best-dressed list) both have dozens of ideas of how to incorporate your exotic finds into every wardrobe and home. The guide is divided into seven separate walks–and little bonus walks–that take you through the main shopping areas, using the author’s precise directions and visual landmarks. And, as a caterer and cookbook author, Simon can’t resist pointing out her favorite spots for everything from mint tea and pastries to fragranttagines–many hidden behind innocuous entrances and set in ancient, verdant riads (traditional Moroccan courtyard homes) or on terraces overlooking the breathtaking city.

Book excerpt: " Comme à New York et Venise, j'ai photographié Marrakech au plus près de la matière, des fragments, des échantillons sortis de leur contexte, oubliés du regard. Ces détails véhiculent l'image d'une beauté fragile, prête à s'effilocher comme les murs parfois décrépits d'une ville en perpétuelle transformation. " " Après New york et Venise, la découverte d'un nouveau monde. A l'écoute des mots, des idées et des rêves qui se croisent ici, place jemaa, endroit unique au monde, mais pas seulement... dans tout ce que racontent les palais, les riads comme les plus humbles demeures. Et surtout tous ces conteurs que sont les habitant de Marrakech. Comme journaliste et responsable du multimédia à Radio France, j'ai trouvé dans cette cité de tous les mystères le réel... et le virtuel. " " Venise a toujours été aux portes de l'Asie, New York à celle du XXe siècle, Marrakech, elle, nous fait découvrir un autre monde, celui des valeurs de l'Islam, aux portes d'une autre Afrique... la richesse infinie de tout un continent. Ici, depuis toujours, les peuples se croisent, le Nord et le Sud se regardent, se parlent, commercent et échangent des idées et des biens. Une vraie ville donc, où, chaque instant, chaque rue, chaque mur, chaque éclat de lumière et, la nuit, un ciel étoilé racontent leur part d'humanité... et d'éternité. " Pascal Delannoy et Jean-Luc Grzeskowiak.

Download or read book Gardens of Marrakesh written by Angelica Gray and published by Frances Lincoln. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicknamed ‘the rose among the palms’, the thousand-year-old city of Marrakesh is characterised by its pink-colored pisé architecture and its deeply rooted tradition for gardens and green spaces. The majority of historic sites are inextricable from their gardens – or indeed are historic green spaces: the huge royal orchard pleasure-gardens of the Agdal were described by Monty Don as ‘of international cultural importance on a par with Versailles or Villa d’Este’. Scores of traditional riads and hotels like the Mamounia, created by the French in 1923 on the site of an eighteenth-century royal residence, offer splendid gardens to the visitor. Yves Saint Laurent’s Majorelle garden is an icon of modern garden design. The first book to be published on this fascinating subject, Gardens of Marrakesh champions the city’s relevance today in a world of water scarcity and urban development and explores its green heritage, considering some twenty gardens both from an historic and cultural perspective.
