Maghrebi literature published in the first half of the twentieth
century is a subject that seldom receives focused scholarly
treatment. This is partly due to limited availability of the books,
some of which were printed in as few as fifty copies. Zahia Smail
Salhi tracked down these rare works and put them in the spotlight
for the first time here. Through close textual analysis and
in-depth engagement with religious and socio-political contexts,
Smail Salhi determines whether these texts belong to a collective
formation we may call 'Occidentalism'. In so doing, this book
reintegrates the pre-1945 Maghrebi novels into the history and
study of modern Arabic literature.
