Books review of author wasini al'aeraj pdf
Born August 8, 1954, in the border village of Sidi Bougnane - Tlemcen, he is a collector and novelist.

Unlike the founding generation that preceded it, the works of Wassini, who writes in both Arabic and French, belong to the new school that does not settle on a single and fixed form, but always searches for its new and lively expressive ways by working hard on the language and shaking its certainties. Language, in this sense, is not a ready-made and stable given, but a permanent and continuous search. Wassini's innovative experimental power was clearly demonstrated in his novel, which aroused great critical controversy, and is programmed today in many universities in the world: The Seventh Night After a Thousand with its two parts: Sand of Water and the Eastern Manuscript. He interviewed in The Thousand and One Nights, not from the site of repeating history and restoring the text, but from the obsession with the desire to recover lost narrative traditions and understand their internal systems that made the Arab imagination in its richness and the greatness of its openness. In 1997, his novel The Guardian of Shadows (Don Quixote in Algeria) was selected among the five best novels published in France, and was published in more than five consecutive editions, including the popular pocket edition, before being published in a special edition that included the five works.
