Table of ContentsReviewsA compelling and solid study of a fascinating literary period with great significance for the present. -Alison Rice, University of Notre Dame In a groundbreaking analysis of Algerian literature written in French from the 1950s through the end of the 1970s, Valerie Orlando explores the contradiction that Algerian authors of French expression defined their place in the literary world as contributors to a litterature de combat yet used experimental literary devices that reflected contemporary French narrative trends. The author argues convincingly that although the experimental narrative and forms of the French New Novel resonated with these writers, that source of inspiration never overshadowed their Algerian specificity.
