    Mini-ep: Un homme, ça ne pleure pas by Faïza Guène (France/Algeria)

    A casual tour of this French Algerian novel exploring - Alienation between immigrant parents and their children - French Algerian representation This book has been translated into English as "Men Don't Cry" (translator: Sarah Ardizzone). As always, there are many points that were not covered in this episode. I particularly feel I owe an apology to the mother who was only mentioned from a negative perspective but who of course is misunderstood in her love for her children, like her husband! Apologies for the strange sound quality - I'm not quite sure what happened there.
