All the novels under review were written in a limited time span (1942 to 1987, approximately 50 years), and all are structured around a hero or heroine who remains culturally, ethically or aesthetically distant from his/her narrative counterparts. Works discussed: Albert Camus' L'Etranger; Richard Wright's The Outsider; Andre? Langevin's Poussie?re sur la ville; Ernesto Sa?bato's El tu?nel; V.S. Naipaul's Guerrillas; Elie Wiesel's Le Cinquie?me fils; Norbert Zongo's Le Parachutage; Gise?le Pineau's L'Exil selon Julia, and Jean Genet's Querelle de Brest 517 3 $aIcons of marginalization in post World War II 606 $aMarginality, Social, in literature 606 $2Literary studies: general 606 $aFiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aExiles in literature 606 $aStrangers in literature 606 $aAlienation (Social psychology) in literature 606 $aVictims of crimes in literature 606 $aMinorities in literature 615 0$aMarginality, Social, in literature. 615 0$aFiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aExiles in literature. 615 0$aStrangers in literature. 615 0$aAlienation (Social psychology) in literature. 615 0$aVictims of crimes in literature. 615 0$aMinorities in literature. 676 $a809.3/9353 700 $aMuratore$b Mary Jo$0447227 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153176603321 996 $aExiles, outcasts, strangers$92878892 997 $aUNINA
