From the Correspondence
Autumn here is a gentler blaze: jacaranda shadows, dry heat softening at the edges, lantern light pooling in courtyard pools. In the souks, brass glints beside pomegranates split open like small red secrets. By evening, a riad hush settles over the city, cool and perfumed, as if Marrakech is saving its brightest truths for later.
