Days

In Days, Paul Bowles chronicles his daily life from 1987 to 1989 through a journal kept at a friend's suggestion, revealing not just his meals and conversations but a deeper exploration of creativity in a new form. With a captivating blend of informality and sharp observation, Bowles captures a range of experiences—from the behavior of a spider to a violent incident in a marketplace, and the extravagance of Malcolm Forbes's birthday celebration. This work offers a candid glimpse into the life of a remarkable artist in late twentieth-century Tangier.
