The Arch and the Butterfly

The Arch and the Butterfly (Ar: قوس والفراشة) is a novel by Moroccan author Mohammed Achaari first published in Arabic in 2010 and translated into English by Aida Bamia in 2014. It is considered an extension of the author's first novel, South of the Spirit, because it re-enacts the clan. The work, awarded the International Prize for Arabic Fiction (2011), explores themes of alienation, memory, extremism, and the boundaries between life and death through the transformations of three generations of the Moroccan family of the Fersiwi family.
