Djedda Dans Une Enfance Singulière, Mémoire Et Voix Féminine

Abstract

A Singular Childhood, book by Fadéla M’Rabet, is an autobiographical account of the child Fadéla who evolves in a world populated by women, around Djedda, grandmother, adored midwife. The story harkens back to Algeria from colonial times. We would like to highlight the following question: narrative as a means of transmitting a memory and making the female voice heard. In a singular childhood, we will examine how, through Djedda, an omnipresent character in the narrative, the writer Fadéla M'Rabet writes a memory and gives a voice but also a way to the woman in general, the Algerian woman in particular.
