Dans les fils d’argent de tes robes

“I do not deny my father’s suffering nor that of his brothers. I do not deny the heartbreak caused by the loss of the country of their childhood and youth, the hurt caused by their brother’s death… I acknowledge their rightful grief. But this tragic period in Algéria’s history has taken up too much room. As children, we have regarded them as critically ill, sick with sorrow and burdened with grief. I now believe things could have been different”. (Amalia Escriva)
