Abstract
Totalitarian experience in Europe after WWII leaves a long trail of consequences that are characterized, from the artistic and literary perspective, by oppression and lack of freedom of expression. The experience of exile from the 80s in France opens the possibility to denounce what many writers lived through literary expression in French. Our analysis focuses on the study of narrative universe of the authors Oana Orlea (1935), of Romanian origin, and Rouja Lazarova (1968) of Bulgarian origin, exiled in France in 1980 and 1991, respectively. Both authors, in the context of fiction, introduced women’s voices, cast their autobiographical experience before and after the exile and take the floor to denounce the abuses of the totalitarian regime.Downloads
