A stray dog's odyssey through the rubble of revolution and European decay.
Mathias Énard's Street of Thieves is less a novel than a raw nerve exposed to the acid rain of the Arab Spring. Lakhdar-a Tangier teen tossed onto the streets after a taboo tryst with his cousin-becomes a pinball in a machine rigged by fundamentalists, corrupt cops, and Europe's crumbling economies. His journey from pious bookseller for an Islamist group to undocumented ghost in Barcelona's Carrer Robadors (literally "Street of Thieves") is a masterclass in noir-as-survival.
Énard weaponizes Lakhdar's voice with brutal elegance: part pulp-fiction addict ("detective novels were my whisky"), part accidental philosopher dissecting the "dogs" of humanity.
As protests ignite Morocco and Spain's indignados riot, Lakhdar navigates corpse-strewn beaches (tagging drowned migrants in a Tarifa morgue) and the predatory glow of Barcelona's tourist traps.
