Author: Yasmina Khadra.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Los virtuosos (The Virtuosi)<\/em><\/strong> is a major work, considered by French critics to be Yasmina Khadra’s<\/strong> best novel. A story of loss, separation and reunion in an era – the first half of the 20th century – and a place – Algeria – portrayed with mastery and emotion, reminiscent of the struggle of the Achaeans against the impregnable walls of Troy, the wrath of Achilles and the long and painful return of Odysseus to Ithaca and the arms of his faithful Penelope. Khadra demonstrates his ability to deal with concrete and particular themes with the freshness and attractive verve of the universal, in a novel that perfectly combines the narrative structures of the Western tradition with the slow poetic sigh of the East.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Algeria, 1914. Yacin, a young man of twenty, has never left his village when he is offered to go to France to fight against the Germans in place of the heart-sick son of the Caid. In exchange, he was promised fortune and comfort for himself and his family. Four years later, the young man returning from the trenches sees the world through different eyes, and a new struggle begins for him.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pages:<\/strong> 480 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Los virtuosos (The Virtuosi) is a major work, considered by French critics to be Yasmina Khadra’s best novel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":52777,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"jnews_post_split":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[195,176],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-81128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-books","category-leisure"],"yoast_head":"\n
