Through the study of the narrative identity of the colonial other and her\/his body's representation, the book also unveils the author's own authorial identity exposed through the repetitive narrative patterns and characterization choices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOlfa Belgacem\u003c\/strong\u003e is a teaching assistant at the University of Tunis.
