Zohra's Ladder by Pamela Windo
A poetic and richly sensual chronicle of a Westerner's unexpected love affair with Morocco Pamela Windo chronicles her love of Morocco and its people in this wondrous collection of true stories, peeling back layers of history, paint, and finely embroidered fabrics to find the truths in the mysterious and the exotic. She describes the colors, flavors, songs, and textures of an almost dream-like nation. Her stories are of snatched affairs, unforeseen warmth, and subtle eroticism in shadowed courtyards. The results are liberating and uplifting portraits of places and people, each told with an extraordinary delicacy. Behind the veils, she discovers kindness, beauty, and passion that afford her life a whole new dimension.
"Your works give readers fascinating insights into life in Morocco and attest to your deep passion for my country" --His Majesty, the King of Morocco, Mohammed VI "The author manages to avoid the cliches usually associated with the Arab-Muslim world." "--Morocco Times"
