He observes that it is also “a study of the tightrope women in movements like Algeria’s Frente Liberacion National (FLN) must sometimes walk.” Jacobs calls it “…an emotionally riveting historical adventure that is both exhilarating and breathtaking.” “Like Gillo Pontecorvo’s masterpiece film The Battle of Algiers, Drif’s memoir is a powerful and unforgettable work.”
