In Tangier, young Lakhdar finds himself homeless after being caught in
flagrante with his cousin Meryem. As the political and religious
tensions in the Mediterranean flare up with the Arab Spring and the
global financial crisis, Lakhdar and his friend Bassam entertain dreams
of emigration, fuelled by a desire for freedom and a better life. Part
political thriller, part road-movie, part romance, the latest novel by
Mathias Enard takes us from the violence of Tangier's streets to
Barcelona's louche Raval quarter.
Street of Thieves is an intense coming-of-age story that delves deep into the brutal realities of the immigrant experience.
