Summary:

"Tracks the daily, sometimes illicit, border crossings between Morocco and Spain--a rare intersection of the first and third worlds. Paying off officials to look the other way, workers smuggle contraband across the border, sometimes crossing up to 11 times a day. In a now common scenario of global economics, Moroccan women work in North Africa to produce goods destined for the European market. And in perhaps the most surreal example of border logic, domestics commute into a Spanish enclave in Moroccan territory, losing two hours as they step into the European time zone"--Publisher's website.
