$8.00$10.00
It is an autobiography by Malika Oufkir, in which she narrates her tragic experience as a child detained in Moroccan prisons with her family after a failed coup attempt against the regime.
Nostalgia, luxury, loss, orphanhood, poverty, fear, hunger. Malika’s life was distinct and unique. The writer described the life of the royal palace, the way its inhabitants lived, and how holidays and celebrations were. She talked about her adventures and boldness in her childhood, as well as her feeling of alienation when she was away from her family. She talked about her life after returning to her family, her childish games and rebellions, and her suffering in prison and the lack of freedom and privacy there. Malika was orphaned twice when her father died and when her adoptive father turned into an executioner!
