Yassin Adnan (Hrsg.)

Marrakech noir

Klappentext:

Marrakech is known as Morocco's "joyful city", and as editor of the collection Yassin Adnan details in his marvelous introduction to the anthology, it was at first difficult to gather enough stories to fill this volume in a country with no tradition of noir. Luckily for readers, the joyful city had enough scandals, smugglers, and other sordid tales to inspire writers to pay homage to the complexities of their city through crime writing.
