Elitza Gueorguieva: Identity, Testimony and Writing

Abstract

The main objective of this article is the critical study of Elitza Gueorguieva’s first novel. This author is part of a large literary archipelago of intellectuals who settled in France and adopted French as there vehicle for literary expression.

The thematic axes will be studied in the contexts of totalitarianism and the analysis carried out will outline the feminine contribution in this literary mosaic
