Review of A Dream For Peace
[Following is a volunteer review of "A Dream For Peace" by Dr. Ghoulem Berrah.]
Although many people attribute success to luck, I always believe that hard work and commitment are the keys to success for anyone. This claim is backed up by Dr. Ghoulem Berrah in his book, A Dream for Peace. For instance, he was raised by a single parent after his father passed away, was born into a humble family, and received his education while discrimination was prevalent because the nation was ruled by French colonizers. The author paints a picture of Algeria's economic, political, and social environment in the first few pages of the book, contrasting it with how things were when the French colonizers took control.
For instance, he claims that in the early days (before the arrival of the French conquerors), marriages played a significant role in shaping daily life, problems of dignity were prioritized above all else, and there was a high degree of harmony among the families. In the same section of the book, Dr. Berrah describes his educational journey and how he worked incredibly hard to get good academic scores during his school years. He also describes the exploitation of native Algerians and how, with the help of other elites, they worked to bring liberation not only to Algeria but to other nations that shared the same issues.
I rated this book 5 out of 5 stars. This score was determined by several factors. The book's excellent writing and editing were a big factor in my decision to award it this score. This is due to how skillfully the sentences and words were picked and put together, making them simple to read. In addition to being free of grammatical and spelling errors, this book's content was also inspiring. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah was the character I loved while reading this novel, although he was also the narrator and the author. I admired him for his wisdom, tenacity, resolve, and altruism.
This novel was perfectly written. Nothing about it bothered me. It's worthwhile to read this book. The book explores themes including customs, change, liberation, international collaboration, colonization, love, friendship, war, and love. The writer is gifted because his writing is exceptional and engaging. The plot of the story was the element that I loved the most.
I think the title and cover of this book were very nicely thought out. They complimented the book's content. In addition, the book's genre can be inferred from its cover. Reading this book from cover to cover took roughly three days. This is due to the length of the book. There are over 600 pages in it. This book was divided into seventeen chapters. Several places—those in Algeria and those outside of Africa—were mentioned in the book.
To anyone searching for a well-written memoir to read, I would recommend this book. I would also suggest this book to individuals who enjoy reading about colonization-related struggles and liberation. It was also helpful to read the epilogue at the end of the book because it provided information that would have been helpful to any reader in understanding the narrative better. The book was superbly edited because, as stated in the third paragraph of this review, there were no grammatical or spelling issues.
