Publishing Women

Like their male counterparts, contemporary Moroccan women authors writing in French are sociopolitical activists influencing today’s Moroccan society. Their works—whether fiction, autobiography, or testimonial—offer a window through which to assess the transitions taking place now with respect to the roles and place of women. These authors’ original writing expresses women’s unique experiences in today’s New Morocco. Since 1999, with their pens, women have more vocally challenged the traditional masculine privilege and patriarchal traditionalism that impede women’s sociocultural and political enfranchisement in society. Their work also underscores the fact that women’s literary production is as much rooted and invested in historical and revolutionary events and contemporary social issues as that of men.
