Recently featured on ArLiJo are Therese (Zrihen) Dvir in Issue 9 and Gary Zebru nand Stephanie Sherman in Issue 10.
A chapter entitled La Mort de Pepe / Death of Pepe, written in French and English, is from Dvir\’s unpublished non-fiction book, Life Gates. Life Gates is the story of a young Jewish girl born and raised in Morocco in the late 1940’s. As the girl’s amazing life story unfolds, the reader is offered glimpses of the colorful heritage and lifestyle of the Jewish communities in Moroccan cities and particularly in Marrakech. Superstitions and values, innocence and corruption, equality and social snobbery, arranged marriages and intermarriage – the book opens up a complex society full of contradictions and fascinating, steadfast customs.
