Cecile Oumhani

Cécile Oumhani is a free-britanno-Tunisian writer E. It grew between French and English, in a multicultural environment. Very marked by the stays accomplished during its childhood in its maternal family with the anglophone Canada, it developed a familiarity with varied universes: Belgium, India, Germany, Scotland… And thus its meeting with the Tunisia at the adulthood came almost naturally to be added to the other facets of its imaginary. Very early, she discovered the writing like a remedy for the absence and the distance. His relationship with the words nourished literatures French-speaking and anglophone approached as of the beginning in their source language, thus developing a strong interest for what is let see and inevitably conceals itself in the interval languages or more simply the between-the-languages.

“Impassioned writing (With flower of words: the passion of the writing, Montpellier 2004), heiress of the sensitivity of her mother, the artist-painter Scottish, Madeleine Vine-Philip, Cécile Oumhani describes us, with empathy and poetry, in an at the same time carnal and purified language, characters attaching from their force or their brittleness, with the catches with the traditions or modernity. It involves us, in accounts with refined architecture, the interior universe of these women or these men who, resulting from mixed couples, launch out in the search of their childhood overlooked on one or other bank of the Mediterranean…” Regina Keil-Sagawe
