Description

The Hospital A Tale in Black and White by Ahmed Bouanani is a hallucinatory novel that explores the boundaries between life and death. Based on the author's own experiences as a tuberculosis patient, the story follows a journey through a hospital where the living and dead blur together. As the narrative unfolds, the hospital transforms into an eerie, metaphorical space, filled with childhood memories and fantasies of resurrection. The iron gate that once marked its entrance disappears, leaving the reader to navigate a world that is both familiar and strange. This novel is a powerful exploration of the human experience, delving into themes of identity, mortality, and the power of the imagination.
