I spent a wonderful week in London: I visited dear friends, met with my UK editor, did a reading for the African Writers’ Series, and found time for a couple of trips to the museum. I love this city, so my stay felt far too short. After a brief detour in Rome, I flew to Casablanca, and then on to Rabat, where I still am at the moment. I’ve been busy catching up with family and friends and have had little time to get online.
While I was in London, my essay “Out of the Kitchen,” which is about a recent travel experience in Morocco, came out in the Los Angeles Times. Meanwhile, the Moroccan magazine Le Temps published an interview I did a while back.
