Tazmamart: 18 Years in Morocco's Secret Prison - Aziz Binebine

Descriere Tazmamart: 18 Years in Morocco's Secret Prison - Aziz Binebine

\nA memoir from a political prisoner in Morocco's notorious Tazmamart prison. \n On July 10, 1971, during birthday celebrations for King Hassan II of Morocco, attendant officers and cadets opened fire on visiting dignitaries. A young officer, Aziz BineBine, arrived late and witnessed the ensuing massacre without firing a single shot, yet he would spend the next two decades in a political prison hidden in the Atlas Mountains--Tazmamart. Conditions in this now-infamous prison were nightmarish. The dark, underground cells, too small for standing up in, exposed prisoners to extreme weather, overflowing sewage, and disease-ridden rats. Forgetting life outside his cell--his past, his family, his friends--and clinging to God, BineBine resolved to survive. Tazmamart: 18 Years in Morocco's Secret Prison is a memorial to BineBine and his fellow inmates' sacrifice. This searing tale of endurance offers an unfiltered depiction of the agonizing life of a political prisoner. \n\n
