Internationally acclaimed novelist, scholar, poet and filmmaker Assia Djebar presents a brutal yet delicate exposition of how wars are fought upon women’s lives and bodies. A French woman is renamed in order to be buried beside her Algerian husband; another loses her daughter to that continental divide. Despite divergent loyalties, the human heart exists within, beneath and beyond geographical borders.
