It depicts with a startling reality the vicissitude of the intellectuals in his country.His [literary time] leaves the reader with a strange feeling of duration, captive and held in suspense until the last sentence. " FOREWORD:
If the characters, facts and chronological of this work largely correspond to authentically lived situations, they are nevertheless novel creations. Thus, dialogues, marginal scenes, descriptions and novelistic thoughts, necessary for any literary construction, have been voluntarily added by the author. Names of persons, military acronyms, and most of the names of places have been deliberately modified, their geographical location hidden. Any foreign resemblance in the text would be purely fortuitous, and could not therefore be ambiguous. The author. MANUSCRIPTS AT READING:
My texts do not claim to have the physico-chemical consistency of the diamond, which is a rare mineral, at beauty always singular. If it symbolizes purity, I dare claim somewhat in my writing process, you are well aware, dear readers, that nothing can resist at the erosion and relentlessness of time, not even a rare stone, unlike the myth. However, my quest to want fix in time my writing has been a constant in my novel research project, registering in a dialectic perhaps containing elements of plastic and artistic appreciation who neglect and forget by moment the transience of time. Critical scholars in the world of literature can identify and seize this requirement, or do not see it at all. There are authors who do not necessarily write to please but to say things. Is not it how many great men pass their way without deigning to see the grace of the infinitely small, to whom it is enough to be only great in the eyes of his mother? The greats who often forget they were small before becoming... greats. As in the search for precious gems, it is the rarity and beauty of the texts that move an audience. Will you become diehard fans of my books ? The author. SYMBOLIC OF THE NOVEL:
Near the berth, the camp commander waits with his arms crossed to his chest for the arrival of the new contingent. He carries the rank of chief warrant officer. His face seems sunburnt and his mustache is turning yellow from the cigarette falling on his mouth. Right off the bat, Tewfiq Baali thinks he sees Lieutenant Benfakir! His nickname, the convicts will soon be, is The Bully.
After the course of nearly five hundred meters, the contingent arrives at the ruined fort.
Sectioooon! Haaaalt, yells a sergeant! Right, right!
The convicts properly carry out serial orders, disoriented by the novelty and the lack of benchmarks for the possibilities of retaliation in the event of a balance of power. The camp leader greets and immediately addresses the newcomers:
Convicts! You are here to atone for your faults! I won't give anyone a present. The camp rules are posted at my office door! By following the instructions, you will avoid dying a second time... Because when you arrived here, you were already dead! No one will be able to leave Kp-Zero... This is where the story of your life ends! Break up!
