La prohibida

The forbidden one.
An exciting narration which takes us to a teared country, between the progress and the prejudices, between religion and fanaticism. Using a violent and tender writing at the same time, the authoress introduces Sultana to us; the main character who comes back to Algeria after having exorcized in exile her fears and the threats to which she was supposed to be predestined.
The meeting, surrounded by absences and challenges, in a place where a woman free in her gestures and feelings " deserves" the death will show Sultana how the day-to-day can become a battle field where dignity and survival are continuously into play.
A novelized struggle as well as a struggled novel carried out by this devoted writer, Malika Mokeddem, whose life and play show a constant struggle in favour of emancipation.
