'''Elissa Rhaïs''' ({{Lang-Langx|he|אליסה ראיס}}), born '''Rosine Boumendil''' (12 December 1876 – 18 August 1940) was a [[History of the Jews in Algeria|Jewish-Algerian]] writer, who adopted the persona of a Muslim woman who had escaped from a harem to further her literary career. Her novels were popular in her lifetime, but declined; interest in her life was revived in the 1980s by a claim that all her publications had been [[Ghostwriter|ghost-written]] and that she was illiterate.
