"Inspiring . brilliantly illustrates an ancient oral tradition in my country. I cannot but commend your untiring, meticulous work. Building on stories gathered directly from some of our most renowned storytellers, you have introduced readers to a time-honoured Moroccan tradition." - Mohammed VI, King of Morocco "Charming, fantastical and lively collection. Like a genie emerging from a flask, The Last Storytellers produces a startling amount of pleasure from some very small packages. Both men [author and interpreter] deserve much praise for the successful outcome of this endeavour." - Times Literary Supplement "Hamilton presents readers with a precious gift: a collection of content not quite like anything we have ever heard or seen before.
Readers who might never reach Marrakech can find their own oasis by making a cup of mint tea and giving thanks for these enchanting stories rescued from oblivion." - New York Journal of Books "Think of this as a collection of Grimm's fairy tales with plenty of added North African charm." - Lonely Planet "Hamilton does not only offer his readers a valuable, enchanting, interesting and entertaining read but also launches a cri de coeur to rescue this vanishing and traditional form of storytelling as it slowly falls into the abyss of forgetfulness." - North South Magazine "This is addictive material." - The National "A truly remarkable piece of literature." - Essential Travel Blog.
