### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Novel
*by A***C on May 12, 2023*

This was a very well-written book; narrator/character comes from a part of the world I know little about, so provided a great deal of insight and empathy into a time, place and people living in Algeria.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent
*by A***. on June 10, 2014*

An superb example of writing yet again under the pseudonym of an Algerian intelligence officer. The descriptive power of the language even after translation. is exceptional

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Poetic Historical Novel treating the roots of injustice and inequality of Opportunity and the irreversibility of many actions
*by M***O on December 3, 2013*

This is a wonderful translation of a romantic novel based on the reality of Algerian history, the transition from French colonialism to independence and the complexity of loss for the many generations of French settlers and their associates, many of whom were also Islamic Arabs. It brings to life the reasons why injustice and too great inequality can lead to disaster. Khadra is a poet, as well as philosopher and sensitive observer of society and human nature.
