Through readings of French and Arabic texts by writers including Zahia Rahmani, Yamina Mechakra, Waciny Laredj, Fadhma Aíth Mansour Amrouche, Frantz Fanon, Assia Djebar, and Samira Negrouche, the book centers Algeria as an important nexus of aesthetic creation and theoretical contestation. Its argument foregrounds the impasses and disjunctions brought to light by this constellation of literary texts to demonstrate how Algerian writers have transformed the genre of testimony in ways that both defy imposed linguistic partitions and dispute the authority of the state to be the ultimate arbiter of justice"-- |c Provided by publisher | ||
