Mohammed Khaïr-Eddine

Died in 1995

Mohammed Khaïr-Eddine was born in 1941 near Tafraout, in the Anti-Atlas, into a Berber family whose father ran a business in Casablanca, where he joined him for his studies. Employed by the Social Security office, he lived from 1961 to 1963 in the great city of the Souss that the earthquake had just destroyed, to carry out a survey among the victims. With Mostafa Nissabouri he launched a manifesto calling for a “linguistic guerrilla”, then went into exile in France in 1965, where he worked as a labourer, and took part from afar in the venture of the journal Souffles. Returning to Morocco in 1979, he died in Rabat on 18 November 1995.
