LA LANGUE DES « VRAIES RICHESSES ». LES RELATIONS FRANCO-ALGÉRIENNES À TRAVERS NOS RICHESSES DE KAOUTHER ADIMI.

The present paper focuses on the novel Our Riches [Nos Richesses] published in 2017 by a young Algerian writer, Kaouther Adimi. The book is set in 20th century Algeria and narrates the history of Les Vraies Richesses, a publishing house and library founded in Alger by Edmond Charlot, which is to be closed in 2017 by Ryad, a young Algerian living in Paris, who has come to Alger to do his internship. The aim of the paper is to analyse the French-Algerian relationships depicted in the book and to study whether the novel may be inscribed in the concept of "francophonie". It is divided into three parts. The first one investigates the structure of the book, its language and historical events described by the writer. The second examines the character development and the roles of the main protagonists and the last one focuses on the use of pronouns "you" and "we". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
