“On the way to Marrakesh, a superb sunrise, the sun high in the sky.” With this simple yet luminous opening, Abdelwahab Meddeb invites the reader to wander the vibrant streets and sacred sites of this lively city in the heart of Morocco. Returns to Marrakesh chronicles Meddebs return visits to the Red City from 1968 through the 1990s, documenting both his personal journey and the citys transformation across three pivotal decades. Through his distinctive blend of poetic prose and keen observation, Meddeb reveals Marrakesh as a historical crossroads where diverse populationsJewish and Muslim communities, different social classes, Sufi mystics, and merchantshave created a uniquely multilayered urban space.

Capturing Marrakeshs sounds, scents, and sights, these vivid travel notes portrays a city teeming with life and infused with an intense array of colors. The bilingual edition includes both Meddebs original French and its English translation, making accessible the work of one of North Africas most important voices.
