Juifs et Arabes (Jews and Arabs)
Albert Memmi, one of Tunisia's most celebrated writers, argues that Jewish life in Arab lands was never idyllic, but marked by insecurity and periodic violence, and that after independence the governments of Tunisia, Morocco, and Algeria squeezed their Jewish communities economically until most had left.
