Abdellah Taïa’s calmly transgressive work has outed him as “the only gay man” in a country whose theocratic law still treats homosexuality as a crime. The persistence of prejudices on all sides of the Mediterranean/Atlantic makes translations of Taïa’s work both literary and political events. Salvation Army is his third novel, but the first to be translated into English.
