 |
| Literature & Epidemic This novel is based on 1899 "Cholera epidemic" which killed large proportion of Oran people, situated in 1940s. Introduction: In the days of Epidemics and pandemics, where many lives are striving to survive, to keep themselves safe from such infections, a new thing is seeking its share from humans, and that is literature. How literature being very sensitive and flexible part of life, contains everything in it. This is the test of time that how much time wanted us to tolerate such circumstances, there may be some limit. Without peeping into further past problems, let's now concentrate on how literature&epidemics have association with one another. Where every humanbeing is busy in hustle bustle of life, it is only the literature, which is inscribing freely everything, what human writes and in this sense, it is literally the test of time.
