Tangier: A Literary Guide For Travellers by Josh Shoemake

An edge city, poised at the northernmost tip of Africa, just nine miles across the Strait of Gibraltar from Europe and overlooking both the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, Tangier is more than a destination, it is an escape, and the Interzone, as William Burroughs called it, has attracted spies, outlaws, outcasts, and writers for centuries—men and women working out at the edge of literary forms, breaking through artistic borders. This outlaw originality is what most astonishes when encountering the literary history of Tangier for the first time. This is a book that will capture the unconventional, multilayered story of literary Tangier and will be a must-have for travelers, armchair adventurers, and literature buffs, particularly aficionados of the Beat generation writers and poets who made the city their home.
