Pressezitat
"In this lively, refreshingly original, and thought-provoking work, Lara Dotson-Renta draws upon recent novels, films, songs and other media to trace the flow of people and ideas between Morocco and Spain. With her focus on traslado a notion of 'translation' that can also signal, in Spanish, the movement of bodies across borders she explores the senses of familiarity, estrangement, and anxiety that characterize contemporary Spanish-Moroccan encounters. As a robust Moroccan Muslim immigrant population takes root in Spain, will the country now become a new Andalusia (reviving its connections to an earlier Islamic heritage), a gateway to modern Europe, or something else entirely? Dotson-Renta maps out these questions about cultural identity in the current age of mass migration, and does so in a way that will appeal to scholars of Spain, North Africa, and the wider Mediterranean world."Heather J. Sharkey, associate professor of Middle Eastern & Islamic Studies, University of Pennsylvania
"Dotson-Renta suggests a new way of looking at the contemporary phenomenon of Islamic immigration to Europe, setting it within a history of movement between the shores of the Mediterranean, particularly between Morocco and Spain. As the author rightly contends, this relationship has its origin in Moorish Andalusia, a reference that has resonance in contemporary fiction in several languages and even, very interestingly, in contemporary rap and hip-hop music. In focusing on a small number of works, she manages to include a diversity of languages and genres, ranging from an autobiographical piece in Catalan to popular music to internationally known literary prizewinners like Tahar ben Jelloun's Partir."
