Produktbeschreibung
In "Under Two Flags," Ouida presents a compelling narrative that intertwines themes of honor, duty, and romantic entanglement against the backdrop of colonial North Africa. The novel is marked by Ouida's lush, vivid prose, characterized by its sweeping descriptions and emotive characterizations that reveal the complexities of human relationships. Set during the tumultuous period of the Franco-Algerian War, Ouida's exploration of identity and belonging reflects the era's imperialist ideologies, while also critiquing the gender norms that confine her characters. The story follows the entwined fates of a British mercenary, a French noblewoman, and a noble Arab boy, crafting a multilayered narrative that challenges societal conventions through its depiction of diverse cultural perspectives. Ouida, born Maria Louise Ramé, was a prominent novelist of the 19th century, known for her adventurous tales and strong, unconventional female characters. Her own experiences, including travels throughout Europe and North Africa, informed her storytelling and offered her a unique lens through which to examine the socio-political landscape of her time. Bringing forth her distinctive voice, Ouida emerged as a notable figure in the literary world, often challenging societal norms and expectations. "Under Two Flags" is a must-read for those interested in historical fiction that deftly navigates the intricacies of love and loyalty in a colonial context. Readers will find themselves enthralled by Ouida's masterful storytelling and her enduring exploration of identity and the human spirit.

Autorenporträt
Ouida (1839-1908) was the pseudonym of the English novelist Maria Louise Ramé. During her career, Ouida wrote more than 40 novels, children's books, collections of short stories and essays. Under Two Flags, one of her most famous novels, described the British in Algeria. It expressed sympathy for the French colonists (called pieds noirs)-with whom Ouida deeply identified-and, to some extent, the Arabs.
