Show more"This volume contains a selection of short stories from two volumes by Mme. Henriette Celarie. They are sketches more than short stories, attempting to show without preamble cross-sections of native Moroccan women's lives, as told to and discovered by the alertly interested wife of a French officer living for years in that country. Each story is rigorously true. Differing perhaps from the usual romantic picture, their flavor of reality can be even more impressive. This is Morocco, static, fluid, potential."--Foreword.
