Originally published in 1955, Paul Bowles's remarkable novel set in Fez,
Morocco, during the last days of the French colonial empire, is an expansive
piece of writing-vintage Bowles
The dilemma of the outsider in an alien society, and the gap in understanding
between cultures, recurrent themes of Paul Bowles's writings, are dramatized
with brutal honesty in this novel set in Fez, Morocco, during that country's
1954 nationalist uprising. Totally relevant to today's political situation in
the Middle East and elsewhere, richly descriptive of its setting, and
uncompromising in its characterizations, The Spider's House is perhaps Bowles's
best, most beautifully subtle novel.
