In Conversation: Abdellah Taïa and Dale Peck
Loading...
Uploaded by PENamericancenter on May 2, 2011
Dale Peck, the controversial critic and daring author of queer novels such as Martin and John, interviews one of Morocco's youngest and most talented novelists Abdellah Taїa (Le jour du roi). They'll discuss identity, gender and sexuality in the vastly different sociopolitical contexts of contemporary New York City and Morocco.
Under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, co-presented as part of World Nomads Morocco. The annual World Nomads festival, produced by the French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF), celebrates the phenomenon of 21st-century transculturalism through the arts and scholarly discussion. It offers a platform for the exchange of ideas and artistic expression among traditional and contemporary cultures. The festival returns this May at a particularly suitable time for its fourth edition, to celebrate the many facets of Morocco.

I have followed Abdellah Taïa ever since I came across his first book 10 years ago. He has now penned six. He is an absolutely admirable person not only for his books but for the fact that he can address himself so fluently in English, his fourth or fifth language. Taïa is a mirror of his society which has not only opened Morocco to the world, but opened Moroccan society to look onto itself, thus triggering an amazing conversation among its people that I never thought possible in my lifetime.
