A vast world in ten minutes • Hyam Yared

Francophone poet and novelist Hyam Yared has produced an inimitable and powerful body of work addressing the themes of femininity and freedom in juxtaposition to the pressures of tradition, social hypocrisy, weighty secrets, and deadly inertia that contrast with the multiple identities alive in each of us. She is the author of L'armoire des ombres, Sous la tonnelle, La malédiction, Tout est halluciné and, published last year, Nos longues années en tant que filles.
