»Jag funderar ofta på vad som kommer att bli kvar,på vad Erwan kommer att ha kvar av mig, av sin barndom, jag skulle vilja fånga, uppenbara hans känslor på filmrullen, etsa in våra ögonblick, för jag fruktar att kärleken ska försvinna tillsammans med minnena, etsa in doften av jasmin när vi närmar oss vårt hus, doften av den inre platsens stadga trots oron i mitt hjärta, mot den verkliga eller inbillade våldsamheten, hos havet, människorna. Jag skulle vilja beskydda min son från vårt sjuttiotal, från den algeriska historiens vandring mot kaos.»

Genom Madame Aklis besvärjande röst bjuder Nina Bouaroui på en glödande, sensuell och poetisk roman som förenar att hennes litterära anfäktelser: barndomen som avslutas, kärleken som går vilse, åtrån som får en att förlora förståendet.

About the author

Nina Bouraoui

30Ìýbooks188Ìýfollowers
Nina Bouraoui (born on 31 July 1967) is a French writer born in Rennes, Ille-et-Vilaine, of an Algerian father and a French mother. She spent the first fourteen years of her life in Algiers, then Zürich and Abu Dhabi. She now lives in Paris.

Her novels are mostly written in the first person and, with the exception of Avant les hommes (Before the Men), have been said by the author to be works of "auto-fiction". This is even the case for Le Bal des Murènes (The ball of moray eels), which, like Avant les hommes, has a male narrator. Since writing her first novel in 1991, Bouraoui has affirmed the influence of Marguerite Duras in her work, although the life narratives and works many other artists are also to be found in her novels (and songs). This is particularly true of Mes Mauvaises Pensées (My Bad Thoughts) which bears the imprint of Hervé Guibert, Annie Ernaux, David Lynch, Eileen Gray, and Violette Leduc amongst others. Questions of identity, desire, memory, writing, childhood and celebrity culture are some of the major themes of her work.

Bouraouis senare verk har lämnat mig ganska oberörd. Den här tyckte jag mycket om.
