Book synopsis

Mouloud Feraoun grew up in the Kabyle region of French-controlled Algeria, where the prospects for most Muslim Berber men were shepherding or emigrating to France for factory work. While Feraoun escaped by excelling in the colonial school system -- as a student and, later, as a teacher at the Ecole Normale -- he remained rooted in Kabyle culture.
