About This Item
Tanger [Morocco]: Editeur Ph. Gau, [ca. 1950]. First edition. Folio (8 3/4 x 12 1/2 inches). 36 mimeographed pp. (due to self-wrappers). Publisher's hand-stenciled and very colorful wrappers. Some edge crimping as the text is not flush with the wrappers but overall a very good copy of this scarce work of activism against colonialism. Only one copy (Bibliotheque Nationale) located by OCLC.Rene Gau was a big proponent of France giving up its colonies after the war. In this piece he is telling the French to wake up and chaos and trouble is coming. He wrote it as anti-colonialism protests were intensifying throughout Northern Africa and Tangier was increasingly becoming a center for exiled writers and artists. France finally gave Morocco its autonomy in 1956. Not much is known about R. Gau except that he wrote a novel in 1949 entitled Un roman de Tanger, La guerre nouvelle (roughly-A Story of Tanger, the New War).
