NORTH AFRICA SPEAKS

The report on this title ran in the issue of December 1 - as follows:- ""The author of Mexico Speaks in a second sympathetic portrait of a country and a people `in their own words' and in the interests of better understanding between North Africa and America. Here is the 'energy, color, mystery, vigor, aspiration' he saw there -- in the streets, the homes, through mountains and valleys, to the cities -- Algiers and its Kasbah, Oran, Fez, Marrakech and Tunis. Here is their ageless wisdom -- the fatalism that colors their outlook -- their culture, as with Gadi, his guide, he talked to many, saw the circumstances of their daily lives. Quietly informative, there is both modesty and sensitivity to the record.
