In the process, she has become one of the most important figures in North African literature. In Assia Djebar, Jane Hiddleston traces Djebar’s development as a writer against the backdrop of North Africa’s tumultuous history. Whereas Djebar’s early writings were largely an attempt to delineate clearly the experience of being a woman, an intellectual, and an Algerian embedded in that often violent history, she has in her more recent work evinced a growing sense that the influence of French culture on Algerian letters may make such a project impossible. The first book-length study of this significant writer, Assia Djebar will be of tremendous interest to anyone studying post-colonial literature, women’s studies or Francophone culture. 410 0$aContemporary French and francophone cultures ;$v6. 606 $aAlgerians in literature 607 $aAlgeria$xIn literature 615 0$aAlgerians in literature. 676 $a843.914 700 $aHiddleston$b Jane$0850653 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782562803321 996 $aAssia Djebar$93727030 997 $aUNINA
