This study presents an investigation into new trends of the Moroccan novel, particularly new novels and those by young writers, towards the so-called “social component” in a kind of renewed novelistic momentum, where both old and new novelists are visible. Perceived by the author is a shift from other literary genres, and even other professions, to the novel. The emergence of the “daughters of Shahrazad” is also a prominent trend, that is women writers who challenge the taboos of male patriarchal society with varying degrees of artistic success. In this they are akin to their male and female colleagues who are engaged with social transformations by means of a new and different approach to various issues including the intellectual, colonialism, or the West in general.
