La Littérature à L’epreuve De L’histoire Dans Le « Le Rapt » D’anouar Benmalek

Auteurs : Bensaadi Fayçal .

Résumé

The work of Anouar Benmalek is often inspired by history. The writer continues to listen the founding events of independent Algeria, question them or do a reading which according to ideological fluctuations and power relations, deliberately goes for a provocation in the face of the establishment or so serves only as an extra to organize his story. There was “The starry lung” and “The Rape”. The letter is designated as novel. The comments could safely add the attribute that suit him best as “black”. Black by its contiguity with the detective novel. It is sordid but rises elegantly however among the works “readable” in recent years. It derives its substance from the “recent” history of the country: in the foreground the period of terrorism, in the background a terrible episode in the war of liberation, that of Melouza, during which an entire village was decimated because of divisions between different factions of the national liberation movement.
