- Title
Les rives identitaires de Leïla Houari: le récit d'une femme tiraillée entre tradition et modernité.
- Authors
Iglesias Pruvost, Virginia; Nadim Nadim, Loubna
- Abstract
Leïla Houari (1958-) is a writer of Moroccan origin who examines her fragmented identity: in her novel Les rives identitaires, she evokes the problems faced by migrants: "l'entre-deux", the impossibility of fully identifying with the culture of the native country, the vital need to write in order to transcribe these existential questions. These difficulties are all the more acute when the migrant is an Arab-Muslim woman subjected, by definition, to patriarchy and an archaic tradition. Faced with these injustices, the prose writer rebels on paper while seeking to forge a mixed, mixed-race identity, which would link the two shores of the Mediterranean.
