somewhat incomplete
The writing is refreshingly light.
Five Stars
Good read..
crisp and baeautiful
Many books have been written about the gay underworld of Morocco but it is refreshing to read a book by a Moroccan.
A short yet interesting book about being an arab gay male
Abdellah Taia is the first Morrocan writter to come out and speak openly about his homosexuality and probably one of the very few men coming from a conservative muslim enviroment to talk about such issues in his books .
Beautiful Book
At times, this book is a bit odd to hear about things such as fraternal admiration that borders on obsession with his brother's undies.
Exotic and wonderfully naked ...
Salvation Army is a coming of age memoir, no doubt, but one made exotic not only for its settings--like Marrakesh, Geneva and Morocco--but by the fact that Abdellah Taïa's first stirrings of love, his earliest pangs of sexual awakenings were for his attractive older brother, Abdelkébir.
wonderful book to read about coming out
I have just read about this author in a magazine.
Bittersweet
The best parts of Abdellah Taia's \"Salvation Army\" story are largely about the challenges of being gay in a Muslim country ; then finding a kind of sexual liberation in Europe; finally finding another kind of isolation in being a third worlder in a first world country.
Morroccan desire mixed with a touch of French
As a person who generally loves the memoir genre, I was impressed at how skilled Taia shaped thoughts and stories about his life.
Interesting Story
Well, if I give too long of a review there'll be no reason to read the book, as it is very short and I might end up telling the whole story.
