Mois Benarroch

Escritor políglota, con AMOR Y EXILIOS regresa a su idioma castellano, instrumento elegido para zafarse de las etiquetas tradiciones, para poner sobre el tapete las ideas preconcebidas de casi todo y con paciencia de sabio irlas desbrozando pagina a pagina: la literatura, la religion, la creacion, el sexo, la memoria y el desarraigo. AMOR Y EXILIOS, una obra dividida en siete libros, donde cabe la ciencia ficcion, el realismo, los manifiestos literarios, la poesia, la novela y el cuento, todo ello bañado de buena musica y de nostalgias de vidas posibles que no fueron. O tal vez si. Asi resume Benarroch su ultima apuesta literaria: "Seis años de trabajo llegan a puerto, 512 paginas, 157.000 palabras, todas escritas en español (no me lo creo), dividido en siete libros, crean una novela o mas bien un libro conceptual, tal como eran algunos discos en los años 70, cada libro se centra en una historia de amor en el exilio, los mismos dos personajes, el y ella, cambian de nombre y de ciudad pero siguen en el mismo exilio."

A tutti noi succede a volte di parlare con un fratello di un ricordo dinfanzia e dimprovviso lui ci dice, ma non sei stato tu quello che ha fatto questo, sono stato io. E questo sembra normale. Ma, di cosa ci ricordiamo quando ricordiamo? Gli studi scientifici dicono che in meno di ventiquattro ore abbiamo gia cambiato il ricordo di quello che e successo. Magari i nostri ricordi non sempre sono tanto nostri, sono parte di noi, in parte sono quelli che ci hanno raccontato altri che erano nello stesso posto, e altri magari sono ricordi di altri si infiltrano nel nostro registro celebrale. Il narratore de Il Ladro di ricordi non ruba i ricordi, ma si sente un ladro, perche puo captare in alcuni momenti i ricordi piu intimi delle altre persone, per rendersi conto poi che non riesce piu a riconoscere i suoi ricordi da quelli degli altri. Il ladro di ricordi e unautobiografia del mondo intero.

The Jerusalem syndrome: a Spanish teenager decides to reveal a false secret to his closest friend and tells him he is a Jew. To his surprise his friend reacts with "I knew it!" as if this was the most well known secret in the world. In a matter of hours the whole school calls him the Jew. No denial or acceptance that he told a lie will change his nickname. This lie will lead him to be a respected writer till he finally writes an historical novel about the Jews. This novel is his first one to be translated and to his surprise it is translated into Hebrew. The novel gets him invited to a strange writers festival in Jerusalem, where he meets an old, half senile woman, who looked like his recently deceased mother, and who is convinced that he is her son, who disappeared in the Lebanon War. He will also meet Charly, a Jewish-Moroccan Israeli writer, suffering from chronic discrimination who is doing his first steps writing a novel about Lucena in Spanish, his mother tongue, half forgotten in order to write in Hebrew. Jerusalem is at the center of Andalusian in Jerusalem, a short but intense novel where Madrid meets Jerusalem and the Jewish world becomes more fantastic than the novels of the writers who try to describe it. The Jewish past of Spain leads to Jerusalem and Spanish is at the heart of the Jewish world.

"The world portrayed in Brown Scarf Blues by Mois Benarroch is one in which time is an elusive thing. Also, reality. Slipping from the mundane details of travel to the world of fantasy and memory and back again, the book takes us on a trip through loss, regret, and the way in which a misplaced item, even one that wasnt really yours to begin with, can drive one slightly mad. Written by a Moroccan poet and novelist who has lived a truly international life, the novella touches on many things at once personal and universal. The first portion of the book details, in sometimes microscopic detail, his "investigation" into how and when a scarf he accidentally acquired while on a trip to Spain for a conference of Sephardic Jews has suddenly vanished after only 13 days in his possession. We come to see that the scarf represents loss on the grander scale for the writer who has lost a sister and a best friend recently. But other losses come and go, in the confused timeline of the storys telling, losses of expectation, of his idea of himself, of others who people his "lives". The second portion of the 154 page novella is a series of anecdotes revolving around a group of people who have all touched each others lives. The people are not named for the most part, and the reader must puzzle out which anecdotes intersect others and who is who. One is clearly the writer we previously followed who had found and lost a scarf. The last third of the novella exists as a series of memories of the authors childhood. Disjointed, sometimes referencing a memory twice (Tutti-frutti ice cream at La Glacial), many of them involve the simple comfort of a childs favorite foods; locales in his home city of Tetouan in northern Morocco are listed, as are street names and beaches. The Brown Scarf Blues moves in and out of the world of language as well, and much of it involves the use of language as these disparate parts of the world intersect within the Jewish members of Morocco, Spain, France, Israel. The writer speaks of the "mystery" of his ability to sometimes understand Portuguese and sometimes not. A story is told of an old man whom nobody can understand because he speaks Haketia, a forgotten language that reminds him of his youth. Street names, neighborhoods, tavern after tavern are named, the litany of a wanderer. This book made me laugh out loud several times, in both recognition and delight. I couldnt list the number of lines that made me want to text them to others to share in my enjoyment. The extended motif of the writer feeling as if he is only a character in another writers work and vice versa was a feeling I have every day without being able to express it. But more than anything, it is the sense of a soul in constant movement, a stranger in his own land as well a citizen of many homes that permeates the work. The scarf is both a lifeline and comfort, if only for a very short time. It is for this reason and many others that I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars." Cathy Crawford , online book club.

DISTANCE~~~~~~~~~And one dayIn the distanceDistance will no longer existAnd well be unitedAnd it wont require disuniting other voicesAnd one dayThat eternal day, the day before creationWhen we were all one, that effervescent unityWhich we were, unity awaiting dispersalThat day which is already within us, which we already knowThat day which guides us through trees, branches and rhymesLike a distant light we dont recognize as our beaconThat day is already within meIts already within you. IF THEY COME LOOKING FOR ME~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Say The soil was dampAnd my shoes were calling me for a walkBackwardsWith slowStepsSayThe sea was sereneAnd the small wavesWere escaping the beachSayThat the sun was full of lovelySpotsThat the moon was emptyThat the soil my ancestorsTrod for centuriesWas buried undergroundAnd wept my absence.Mois Benarroch is a well known poet internationally and his poetry books have been published in Hebrew, Spanish, English, German, Arabic, Portuguese and Italian.
