On the pages of “The Tent” your eyes slide following the words that you feel as if your ears are picking up. You hear obscene and non-obscene phrases and words and go with Mohamed Choukri through his world steeped in realism to get to know the alleys, markets, bars and Moroccan women, abject poverty, smells, appearances and situations that Mohamed Choukri, as usual, did not just describe, but in one way or another, he extended to their interiors and revealed them… It is the realism that he chose for his literary works that the hand of imagination did not reach, as if the painful reality, hunger, fear, oppression, poverty, disappointment and failure frightened the imagination and it fled.
