Satisfaction is an intense, introspective novel that explores the
intimate thoughts, feelings and impressions of Mme Akli, a French
woman living in Algeria in the late 1970s. Mme Akli is a possessive
mother in conflict with her own sexuality in a country that feels
alien to her. The acquiescence of Catherine Bousba, mother of her
son's best friend Bruce, will cause a turmoil of emotional events.
Through a narrative charged with sensuality and repressed passion,
we navigate Mme Akli's complex and paradoxical feelings towards her
own son, Catherine, Bruce and the Algerian landscape. The
representation of a troubled motherhood that echoes the tumultuous
political situation of Algeria at the time, opens the story to
wider community issues.
