fantasma13's review against another edition
Brutal e cru, uma vida de fome e miséria, violência e sobrevivência num pais colonizado (facto que pouco aparece). O que a Beat Generation queria ser mas não conseguia, isto é a Geração de 1920 e 1930, de fome e de problemas reais. Isto não o conto de um menino de bem pequeno burguês que tem a mania que é rebelde antes de ir ser um yuppie, esta é a historia de alguém que passou fome, e a quem a vida correu mal, alguém que aprendeu a ler em adulto. Uma autobiografia brutal e bastante reveladora.

5.0
One of the books I related to the most, I always heard of the experiences of the past generations and the trauma of moving to the city from the countryside especially during the protectorate era/
10/10 of read, especially if you want to know about the daily wretched life of the Moroccan working class.
Some would call it overly grim and dark but that just adds to the character of the book.
