english: Finally, my father, an Algerian peasant's son turned professor, was forced to stop teaching at the university and to flee his apartment, but what I will never forget about Mahfoud Bennoune, my dad, was that like so many other Algerian intellectuals, he refused to leave the country and he continued to publish pointed criticisms, both of the fundamentalists and sometimes of the government they battled.
non_english: Na kraju je moj otac, sin alžirskog seljaka koji je postao profesor, bio prisiljen da napusti univerzitet i pobegne iz stana, ali nikada neću zaboraviti, kada je u pitanju Mahfud Benun, moj otac, kako je, poput mnogih drugih alžirskih intelektualaca, odbio da napusti državu i nastavio je da objavljuje direktne kritike, i protiv fundamentalista, i ponekad vlada protiv kojih su se borili.
