| Abstract: | Analyses some aspects of Tahar Ben Jelloun’s narrative technique, focusing on his ‘La nuit sacre’ (1987) and, specifically, on the role of its protagonist Zahra. Jelloun’s use of narrative forms in this novel demonstrates his modernity as well as his participation in a centuries-old tradition. Bibliogr., notes, ref. |
