In the spring and summer of 1931, Wyndham Lewis traveled to Morocco. Escaping the furor that surrounded the publication of his controversial book on Hitler, while in Morocco, Lewis explored the
culture of the Berbers of Morocco. InJourney into Barbary, Lewis provides a first-hand look into the people and culture of the region. While uncomfortable and direct at times, Lewis goes
beyond the typical stereotypes of the Berber people and produces a book unlike any other for this period.Journey into Barbary is a unique look of Morocco in the 1930s as well as of
Europe’s involvement and attitudes toward the region.
