Publisher's Synopsis
An edge city, poised at the northernmost tip of Africa, just nine miles across the Strait of Gibraltar from Europe and overlooking both the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, Tangier is more than a destination - it is an escape, and the Interzone, as William Burroughs called it, has attracted spies, outlaws, outcasts and writers for centuries. Profiling the list of 'edge' writers who were drawn to the Moroccan city, Josh Shoemake's book captures the unconventional, multilayered story of literary Tangier.
