Algerian writer Jilali Amrani's new book

Algerian writer Jilali Amrani is set to release a novel titled “Raqsat Mawt” (Dance of Death). In an interview with Arabstoday, the writer said his latest book will trace the evolution of characters in Algeria and provide answers to questions like 'What happened to us, why and how?' Its protagonist travels through major changes and events influencing the lives of people in Algeria with death as a powerful underlying theme.
