Résumé
The article’s proposal is to compare two textual spaces –Juan Goytisolo’s Makbara and Elias Canetti’s The Voices of Marrakesh– build as stages. Upon their fictional boards a figural composition is played, which gives life and form to a square –the Djemaa-el-Fna of Marrakesh–, which impresses and marvels the reader built up by Goytisolo and the Elias Canetti’s homonym narrator. The main figures of this orientalistic carnivalistic world represented by and for europeans are not only the grotesque players which are placed on the stage: the voice and the space itself are part of the strategic creation of this textual “non-place”, which is a physiognomic and a tectonic kaleidoscope, that remains invisible.
