The photographs in this book show the visual landscape of many of Paul Bowles's stories - the light of the desert and the exotic beauty of the Moroccan people. Bowles has been recognized both for how own writing and for his role in translating native Moroccan storytellers such as Mohammed Mrabet. The circle of writers and artist who were drawn to Bowles's way of life are also featured: Jane Bowles, and Truman Capote, Jean Genet, Allen Ginsberg, Alfred Chester, and William Burroughs. Simon Bischoff sets the scene in an introductory essay, while an extensive conversation between Bischoff and Bowles goes back through Bowles's life to revisit the places and people he photographed.
