Synopsis
À ta place is the debut novel of Tunisian writer Khaoula Hosni, a work that deliberately broke with the prevailing Tunisian literary landscape by embracing genre fiction and the fantastic. Written in French, it earned the CREDIF Zoubeida Bchir prize for women's writing on its 2013 publication.
The story opens in the tropical paradise of Lovango Cay, where Evelyn Hayman arrives amid strange and mysterious circumstances. What follows is a tangled, emotionally charged love story shot through with secrecy and the uncanny, as the island's beauty gives way to unsettling questions about who Evelyn is and what has drawn her there.
Atmospheric and assured, À ta place announced a fresh voice in contemporary Tunisian fiction — a mystery-laced romance that trades social realism for mood, suspense, and a touch of the supernatural.
