| Popis: | Thesis advisor: Kathy A. Lee In this paper I examine the characteristics of exile as they appear in Isabel Allende's novels The House of the Spirits, Daughter of Fortune and Portrait in Sepia. I argue that each of her protagonists is in exile and seeks identity through the act of writing. The impact of external factors on the exile, such as setting, movement, and family, is minimal in comparison to the effect of writing on her protagonists. Allende, herself an exile, finds identity through writing, and her protagonists do the same. Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2004. Submitted to: Boston College. College of Arts and Sciences.
