Description: Between 1987 and 1989, Paul Bowles at the suggestion of a friend kept a journal to record the daily events of his life. What emerges is not only just a record of the meals conversations and health concerns of the author of The Sheltering Sky but also a fascinating look at an artist at work in a new medium. Characterized by a refreshing informality clear - sightedness and passages of exquisite prose these pages record with equal fascination the behavior of an itinerant spider a brutal episode of violence in a Tangier marketplace and the pageantry and excess of Malcolm Forbes's seventieth birthday party. In Days a master observer of the foreign and obscure turns his attentions toward his own daily existence giving us a startlingly candid portrait of his life in late twentieth - century Tangier.
