Abstract

Ahlam Mostaghanemi is a contemporary Algerian poet and novelist, she is also arguably the most successful Arabic writer of her time, she was born in exile during a time of great turmoil in Algeria. Her experiences as the daughter of a French teacher, turned Algerian liberation fighter shaped her vision and provided inspiration for her writing, as one of the first students in the new Arabic schools in independent Algeria, she puts tremendous value in being able to write and express herself freely in Arabic. Ahlam Mostaghanemi was the first Algerian woman writer to publish a novel in the Arabic language. Her work is therefore very significant in the context of Arab women's writing and feminism. Her novels express a unique understanding of social and political events and convey the impact of these events on individuals by combining love stories with political and social history, fused together in present time. The language that is used in the novel is usually simple in that it is a discourse in which it addresses different segments of society, as it expresses the language of various social segments, but the modern Arab narrator has advanced in his language in his novelist narration to transfer the novel into a poetic novel. The study includes the novelistic output of the Algerian novelist Ahlam Mostaghanemi in her trilogy, Memory of the Body, Chaos of the Senses, and Lions that befits you, in the narrative language at its poetic level, Mostaghanemi’s poetic language is an important feature throughout her novels, and that the narrative text revolts against all rules and laws and goes beyond ready-made templates
