Abstract

In the work of the French writer Jean Marie Gustave Le Clézio, the theme of wandering and marginalization is inscribed invariably in the debate about the complexity of the identities fragmented by the process of decolonization. From his extensive and varied list of publications, this paper aims at analyzing the novel Peixe dourado, from the violent familiar disjunction and the wandering undertaken by the protagonist in search of her origin sand, consequently, of her true identity.
