Naima El Bezaz (born 1974 in Meknes, Morocco) is a Moroccan-Dutch writer, who also gives lectures and writes stories, essays and columns. Her family immigrated to The Netherlands when she was four years old. After finishing high school she went to college, but quit to start a career in writing. She met author Yvonne Kroonenberg at a lecture who got her into contact with publisher "Contact", resulting in her first book, "The Way North". This title appeared in 1996 and for this book she received the "Jenny Smelik-IBBY-prijs", an award for authors of children's or youth literature focusing on miniority children in the Netherlands. The novel became very popular among Dutch youths. In 2002 her second novel ''The Devil's Lover'' appeared and the story bundle became an instant bestseller. In Jack Spijkerman's ''Kopspijkers'' she read an explicit passage of her book, angering Muslims and Christians. In September 2006 her third and most controversial book appears, ''The Expelled One'' is full of explicit content and criticism of religious dogmatism. Uitgeverij Contact calls it "The Moroccan-Dutch ''Turks Fruit''" (referring to the famous taboo breaking Jan Wolkers novel). ==Works== * 1995 ''De weg naar het noorden'' (''The Way North'') * 1999 ''Minnares van de duivel'' (''The Devil's Lover'') * 2006 ''De verstotene'' (''The Expelled One'') * 2008 ''Het gelukssyndroom'' (''The Happiness Syndrome'') * 2010 ''Vinexvrouwen'' (''New Suburben Women'') 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Naima El Bezaz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
