    Abstract This study addresses the issue of Algerian women representation in postcolonial era in Ahlem Mosteghanemi's Bridges of Constantine 2013. This research, entitled Voicing Women Struggle in Mosteghanemi's Novel Bridges of Constantine, aims at investigating the women struggle in postcolonial society in the light of Postcolonial Feminism Theory. In addition, the study aims at highlighting the fact of women marginalization in society in post independent Algeria. As a result, this research finds out that Algerian women were not credited for Algerian Independence war. It also reveals that women were mainly shattered and lost in their trials to prove their individuality and freedom. According to Mosteghanemi, even if a woman is aiming at self-independence and individuality, the shadow of patriarchal community still limits women energy and passion towards a free status.
