Malek Alloula (1937–2015) was an Algerian poet, writer, editor, and literary critic.
He is chiefly notable for his poetry and essays on philosophy. He wrote several books, including ''Le Harem Colonial'' in 1981, translated into English as ''The Colonial Harem'', which was generally well received. The author analyses colonial photographic postcards of Algerian women from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, arguing that the postcards do not accurately represent Algerian women, but rather a Frenchman's fantasy of the "Oriental" female.
