Intertwining myth with the tangible aspects of Moroccan life, Ahmed Bouanani's poetry reflects on the country's tumultuous history, including the impacts of colonization and war. His collections evoke vivid imagery through references to significant events like the Second World War and the Rif War, alongside poignant reflections on loss and memory. Written in a challenging language, Bouanani's work confronts the violence of the past, capturing a nation grappling with its identity and the scars of its history, as he laments a collective forgetfulness of its legacy.
