MARRAKECH II

Spending a week here in Marrakech with Paul Bowles, this is the maddest teahead city I’ve ever seen, a vast plaza where at dusk when it’s cool all sorts of acrobats, fortune tellers, snake charmers and shade drum and dance groups gather circles of crowds and collect coins – also a huge labyrinth market with alleys covered by bamboo against sunlight, selling Aladdin lamps and clothes. Can wander for hours lost – and outside the walled city is the desert and Atlas mountains.
