Le voyage comme palimpseste identitaire dans Grande Section, le premier roman d’Hadia Decharrière

Abstract

In the current context, travel and movement play an essential role in the definition of geopolitical borders as well as identity. In this sense, it is worth highlighting how the literary mosaic of contemporary Francophone xenographs reflects the imprint of current migratory processes that draw a new path and landscape in Romanesque literature. In this article, we propose to analyse Grande Section, Hadia Decharrière’s first novel, with the aim of illustrating the preponderance of autofictional writing in the aforementioned literary field. Also, this novel will allow us to address the particular nuances that the topic of the trip acquires in its scriptural project. Its theme, initially linked to geographical displacement, will allow us to outline the consequences of this identity uprooting with ontological meaning.
