With colonisation, globalisation and technical progress, intercultural encounters are taking place. How to deal with these encounters, with the other, with strangers, with this alterity and what influence they have, is in demand. "Weg nach Timimoun" is a novel by Michael Roes published in 2006, consists of seven chapters (Bejaia, Bou Saada, El Djelfa, Gouerara, Beni Isguen, El Golea, Timimoun), talks about the adventurous journey of two young algerians Laid and Nadir: they travel through Algeria from north to south, from the sea to the desert, from an european-oriented present to an archaic past. Algeria is a country that was a victim of colonial French power and domination. Algeria's encounter with the cultural otherness and alterity that resulted from this French colonization and has influenced the construction of Algerian identity. In this paper, the strategies that legitimized this colonization will be exposed by means of different passages from the work Weg nach Timimoun in reference to Edward Said's theory. Furthermore, the influence of the colonial discourse on the Algerian identity construction is illustrated by the example of the figure Laid using Homi Bhabha's theory of hybridity
