Abstract
The city of Algiers is a model case for studying its representation in the narrative voices of Algerian women who have lived in this area so unique, both West and East, in recent years of colonization and early years of the independence of Algeria from 1962. The city is the framework of personal stories related to the condition of women, whose relationship with the city is interesting from the initial illusion to the current disenchantment.Downloads
