Fantasia, an Algerian Cavalcade | Assia Djebar

Pickpick

The book is a mix of different genres that are combined through almost lyrical prose into a story of colonialism, horrors of war - all intertwined with a woman's voice, women's stories from the past and the author's personal perception on femininity, language, the clash of two cultures ... Very good written book with some unforgettable descriptions/scenes of the French invasion in #Algeria

Simona It is worth to read it even just because of the language @batsy She have very thoughtful ways of expressions, and I think that this isn‘t just because of a good Slovenian translation. 3y
Simona @Librarybelle You can find all kinds of genres in this book … from historical to autobiographical moments, to the semi-literary genres. It is good and unusual mix, but it works. 3y
Simona @LeahBergen Thank you 🙏 3y

My current read is To Paradise (which is probably gonna keep me busy for two more days), audio companion for walks is The Grit in the Pearl: The Scandalous Life of Margaret, Duchess of Argyle by Lyndsy Spence, and because I was distracted with To Paradise - two books from previous #weeklyforecast For A.Djebar book I can‘t find English edition, so my translation is Love, Fantasy, and the second book is Small Country by Gaël Faye.
