Dalila Dalléas Bouzar covers “La part absente” by Rachida Brakni, Stock Editions

Publication by Rachida Brakni, 25 August 2026

With La part absente, Rachida Brakni has written a deeply moving novel about family silences, the legacy of the Algerian War and the search for one’s identity.

A powerful story, driven by unforgettable women and a fundamental question: how does one rebuild one’s life when part of one’s history remains buried?

Dalila Dalléas Bouzar’s work My Life is A Miracle #2, 2021, illustrates the book.
