Goli kruh

Mohamed Choukri

Mohamed Choukri's novel Bare Bread is a powerful autobiographical story about poverty, hunger and the struggle for dignity in Morocco in the mid-20th century.

The author, who comes from an extremely poor family, describes his childhood marked by violence, loss and poverty. Choukri faces cruel living conditions, loses family members and runs away from a tyrant father.

The work traces his transformation from an illiterate boy wandering the streets in search of food to a young man who finds salvation in education and literature. The brutal honesty and rawness of the language reflect the reality of marginalized sections of society, while the novel simultaneously celebrates human resilience and the aspiration for a better life.

Bare Bread is a universal story of survival and emancipation, becoming the voice of the disenfranchised and a symbol of the fight against social injustice.
