Abstract

"The Other Side of the Mirror" is a critical anthology that examines the work of Abdelkébir Khatibi, a Moroccan writer. The book features essays that analyze Khatibi's writing style, his exploration of popular culture, and his novels. It also includes translated excerpts from Khatibi's own works. The anthology aims to highlight Khatibi's contributions to postcolonial and francophone literature and increase his recognition in the English-speaking world. However, it is suggested that the anthology could benefit from additional discussions on syntax and gender in Khatibi's work. [Extracted from the article]
