Autorenporträt
TAHAR BEN JELLOUN is a well-known Moroccan intellectual who writes almost exclusively in French. As a teenager, Ben Jelloun spent time in a Moroccan army camp after his arrest for demonstrating. He sought exile in Paris in the 1960s and has since become one of France's most celebrated authors. He was awarded the Prix Goncourt in 1987 for The Sacred Night and the Impac Award in 2004 for This Blinding Absence of Light. Ben Jelloun has written two educational books for children: Racism Explained to My Daughter (1998) and Islam Explained to the Children and Their Parents (2002). His latest book, The Islam That Scares, has been published in several countries. RITA S. NEZAMI teaches in the Writing and Rhetoric Program at SUNY-Stony Brook, where she focuses on global issues, visual rhetoric, the personal essay, and postcolonial Anglophone and Francophone literatures.
