Social and Gender Standards: Tahar Jelloun's The Sand Child

"Sand Children" is a novel about a girl born in a boy who discovers differences between social norms between men and women by gender differences. Ahmed, a hero and novel confrontation, leads the reader through a self-discovery story about the spectrum of social status. In Tahar Jelloun's novel, women play an active role in accepting and describing low social standards, through which sex is compliant with typical social norms of individuals.

Tahar Ben Jelloun is probably the most famous writer in contemporary Morocco. I am looking for blind children who are short of light and sand. The only thing I can find is the old village palace. This is a story of Moroccan immigrants at the end of his French career. He is a gentle Muslim and a decent man. For him, someone else must stay. He spent more than half of his life in France but he is not home yet. He saw a radical Imam. He did not understand why Muslim immigrants burned his car during the riot. Diligent family men may have become a stereotype used by politicians. It might be difficult to say that they are paying for it. But they eventually paid the price. Ben Jelloun's achievement is in presenting a reliable, inspirational portrait of such a neat man.

When it comes to making movies about Morocco, strong love is the only way that director Nabil Ayouch can express himself perfectly. Like the novelist Tahar Ben Jelloun and the artist Mounir Fatmi (they also allocate time between Paris and their home countries), Ayouch is a small critic who criticizes his country. "It is forbidden to consider restrictions," he said a few days ago.

Tahar Ben Jelloun is a writer as mentioned every year as a strong candidate for the Nobel Prize. France argues that he lives in Paris with him, but the focus of his novel was always Morocco. In a very interesting interview in Paris, Jerone talked about reasons to write in French: at Lyce I learned Arabic classics; when I started translating, I realized the richness and delicacy of Arabic language started. For me, this is another good reason not to fix it. Furthermore, since it is a sacred language, God is given in the form of the Quran, but it is hard work - it feels very small in front of this language. One day, Lebanese great poet, Adonis, was stronger in Arabic than me and told me there was no one writer capable of suppressing it. Some people say that English is Shakespearean's language and Italian is Dante's language, but I do not say Arabic is Algazzari - it's always the Qur'an language.
