«Amor por un puñado de pelos» is the novel by Mohammed Mrabet and Paul Bowles, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (158 pages, in Spanish).
Oral tale by Mohammed Mrabet transcribed by Paul Bowles: the loves of Mohammed and Mina, two young Moroccans, amid spells, charms and poisons, and Mohammed's relationship with his friend and protector, Mr. David. Juan Goytisolo, in the prologue, places it between the modern tale and the oriental story.
It belongs to the Panorama de narrativas collection (no. 11), with translation by José Manuel Álvarez Flórez and Ángela Pérez. The English original, «Love with a Few Hairs», is from 1967.
Readers interested in Moroccan narrative and in stories that mix realism and magical elements, with twentieth-century Tangier as the setting.
Paul Frederic Bowles was an American composer, author, and translator. He became associated with the Moroccan city of Tangier, where he settled in 1947 and lived for 52 years to the end of his life.
