The character is characterised by an authoritarian mentality and despotic behaviour. This perspective comes from the view of another character, his daughter, who refuses to submit under the patriarchal impositions of an eccentric man who was bad-mannered because of the women of his family. Mimoun is obsessed by the women without giving them the respect they deserve and less to the ones of his own family that abuses them and humiliates them with the highest contempt. The work can surprise on the one hand by the dramatic situations and by another by touch them of cynical humour that does not leave indifferent to the reader.
