Clandestin en méditerranée by F. Mellah is a nonfiction account exploring the perilous journeys of undocumented migrants crossing the Mediterranean. Drawing on personal narratives and social observation, the book examines the motivations, risks, and human costs associated with illegal immigration. It provides insight into the complex realities faced by individuals seeking better lives outside their home countries, often under dangerous and exploitative conditions. Published in 2000 by Le Cherche-midi Editeur, this 153-page work contributes to broader discussions on migration, identity, and border politics in the Mediterranean context.
