Perrault, a French journalist, offers a portrait of Hassan II's reign in Morocco: recent history, political problems and social conflicts. He denounces the terror, torture and disappearances, including secret prisons, and questions the monarch's image of modernity and dialogue and the West's tolerance of his regime.
Spanish edition of 1991, with a prologue by Ramón Cotarelo and translation by Fernando Santos Fontenla. The original French title is Notre ami le roi.
For those interested in the political history of Morocco and investigative journalism; a controversial work censored for its portrayal of Hassan II's reign.
