The Amazigh people have historically suffered state violence, religious intolerance, and repression at the hands of the Moroccan government. Bread of the Ravens by Amazigh novelist Aksil Azergui—originally published in Tamazight and now translated into English for the first time—is the tale of a nameless Amazigh journalist who is imprisoned and tortured for attempting to bring these injustices to light. Hamid Ouyachi's deft and visceral translation is razor-sharp in its specificity, carrying the reader into the protagonist's altered reality as he grapples with his obsession with telling the story of the Imazighen.
