L’attente ou le moment propice de juger avant le jugement En attendant le procès de Mohamed Bourahla

The analysis of En attendant le procès examines the concept of waiting and its spatiotemporal transformation. From a static state, “waiting” forks off towards the dynamic: the notion of waiting is then called on to fill in a temporal gap, allowing the portrayal of problems inherent to Algerian society: alterity, prejudice, and violence. Was the author successful in instrumentalizing events to serve the plot or does the approach remain artificial, with no connection between the two actions?
