Title : The Fruit of Our Wombs - Jean-Yves Martinez - book

• Summary

Nadja, a young Kabyle woman torn from her native Algeria, is exploited in Marseille by a prostitution ring.
Exhausted, she decides to escape her pimp to save what remains of her humanity. She calls upon Inspector Chavez, a lawless cop, who doesn't hesitate to use her to get revenge on the crook who ruined her career. On the run, Nadja is caught by her latest client, a ragged, moody ex-con who sees her as his salvation and offers to protect her in exchange for unrequited love.
These three mutilated and tragic destinies will then engage in a merciless battle against a gang responsible for a mysterious traffic that will lead them to the confines of barbarism. With, in the foreground, the city of the Good Mother, luminous and pagan, pregnant with a belly of lost identities, always ready to devour its bastards torn between their origins and their desire to finally exist. A dark novel, constructed like a breathless road movie from the Camargue to the Canebière, where women and men attempt a final reconciliation to overcome the ravages of paid sex, betrayal and the mysteries of filiation.
