Originally published as Ce Maroc! (Paris : Editions de Seuil, 1975).

Includes bibliographical references.

"Originally published in 1975, Proximal Morocco-- is a collection of poems by Mohammed Khaïr-Eddine written in fits and starts during a span of 10 years (1964-1974), during the fever pitch of his political exile from his homeland of Morocco which he fled, partly for fear of political persecution and partly to pursue a literary career in Paris, France. Laced with the same politically-inflected Surrealistic fervor as Aimé Césaire, the book is at once a powerful outcry to fellow artists for international solidarity of the colonized and outcast and a documentation of the pain and struggle of exile."--Publisher's website, viewed 17 April 2023.
