Rachid Djaïdani La littérature de banlieue entre langue et société

The novels Mon nerf and Viscéral present the social realities and language specific to contemporary literature about the banlieue. Rachid Djaïdani is committed to denunciating the social situation in the urban peripheries of French metropolises today. By constructing gripping narratives and using syncretic language, the author demonstrates her engaged position vis-à-vis the contemporary society which she describes and denounces at the same time.
