Beschreibung:
Souad Labbize was born in Algeria in 1965, and lived in Germany and Tunisia before moving to Toulouse, France. She has published a novel, J'aurais voulu être un escargot (I would have liked to be a snail, Seguier, 2011) and several poetry collections, including Brouillons amoureux (Drafts of Love, Èditions des Lisières, 2017) and more recently Je franchis les barbelés, (Climbing Over Barbed Wire, Èditions Bruno Doucey, 2019). The Centre Méditerranée den Littérature honored this last publication with the 2020 Prix de la Méditerranée de la Poésie. In 2021, she released Glisser nue sur la rampe du temps (Envers) and Enfiler la chemise de l'aïeule (HETRAIE). Very committed to the cause of equality between genders, she writes in the name of all women who choose exile in order to affirm their independence.
Souad Labbize, poet of love and exile, lived for years in Algeria and Tunisia before crossing to France, where she speaks for all women who leave their homelands to affirm their independence. This collection brings together two she published in France: Drafts of Love is a series of love poems between two women, and Bindle of Exile tells us "how to leave the country/lightweight." In her brief but concise poems, Labbize condenses great passion and an unyielding commitment to truth, freedom and justice.
