Wounding Words: A Woman's Journal in Tunisia

This novel describes key events of the women's movement in Tunisia in
1985, as documented by this Lebanese women's studies scholar who spent that year on a Fulbright to Tunisia. The historical novel mixes prose and poetry.
Noureddine Aba, Author.  Cynthia Hahn, Translator
Le chant perdu d'un pays retrouvé/The Lost Song of a Rediscovered Country
Paris, L'Harmattan, 1999.

This novel, set in a bilingual format, addresses questions of national
identity, and specifically what it means to be Arab in France, after the
Algerian war, in a one-sided dialogue between an Algerian man in Paris
with amnesia, and the doctor, who assists in the recovery of his identity
(whose voice is not included). This novel includes prose and poetry, and
ends with a call to fraternity between all nations and peoples.
