    About this ebook

    Unlock the more straightforward side of What the Day Owes the Night with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!

    This engaging summary presents an analysis of What the Day Owes the Night by Yasmina Khadra, which chronicles the life of an Algerian boy torn between two worlds: his roots as an Arab, and the pied-noir community he has been adopted into. His quest to discover his own identity and a place where he truly belongs spans decades, during which he forms lasting friendships, witnesses the outbreak of the Algerian War, and crosses paths time and time again with Émilie, a beguiling young woman who might just be the love of his life. Yasmina Khadra is the pen-name of Mohammed Moulessehoul, an award-winning Algerian author.
