Mohamed Dib (1920-2003) was one of Algeria's most celebrated novelists who wrote in French to reclaim his people's literary voice. His novels exposed poverty and injustice under French colonial rule and embraced people's aspirations for freedom. He was exiled from Algeria by the French authorities in 1959, and though he spent the rest of his life in Paris, Dib always carried his homeland in his heart and his work.
