Char Maroka (“The Charm of Morocco”) is the debut travel novel by the Ukrainian traveler, writer, and photographer Sophie Jablonska, first published in Lviv in 1932. The author lived in Morocco for four months, explored and described Arab Africa. The writer’s reportage is deeply personal, her unbiased view of this country is devoid of French influence and established genre traditions of the exotic novel, despite the fact that Sophie had already lived in Paris for several years before going to Morocco. She describes different layers of Arab society, their relationships with each other and with foreigners, the position of women, and the Berber tribes free from European protectorate.
