On the morning of March 8, 2011 a procession of Moroccan artists and intellectuals turned into Gandhi Street in Rabat, where the Ministry of Culture is located. Since the summer of 2009, when the author of Majnun Al Hukm (The Megalomaniac) moved in, that building had decayed into a ruin haunted by ravens and ghosts. Only lunatics went in and the stupefied staggered out.
