Description

Yamina was born in a cry. In Msirda, a place under colonial rule. As an adolescent, she waved the flag of freedom. Forty years later, in Aubervilliers, she lives quietly. Is this not another way to resist? But suppressed anger can still be felt, like nothing out of the ordinary. La discrétion is a story about a woman who has learned to live with her past. Her life may seem unassuming, but beneath the surface, a complex web of emotions and experiences is at work. This novel explores the tensions between individual freedom and collective oppression, and the ways in which people find ways to resist. Through Yamina's story, Faïza Guène sheds light on the complexities of human experience. A powerful and thought-provoking novel that challenges readers to think about the nature of resistance and the power of quiet determination.
