Book Synopsis
A tour de force: an utterly singular modern Moroccan classic

Trade Review
"Bouanani sought to bring out the truth of his homeland even as that land itself, one way or another, rendered honest expression impossible; he had no end of impediments and no more than the narrowest way out. Yet with The Hospital he made it, demonstrating, again, how the best work can run any gantlet, even one lined with devils." -- John Domini - Brooklyn Rail
"Hallucinatory." -- Guy Gunaratne - Guardian
"The Hospital has attained cult status." -- The Brooklyn Rail
