But there is no such perception in Exiles. Here all the characters experience an exile from memory: their struggle for possession is an effort to recover their identity, an attempt to overcome doubt and paralysis. They all look back to a pure, original moment in their life. Bertha evokes her flight from Ireland with Richard as her once chance of happiness, Beatrice wants to recall the passionate letters Richard sent from that same exile.

Abstract

But there is no such perception in Exiles. Here all the characters experience an exile from memory: their struggle for possession is an effort to recover their identity, an attempt to overcome doubt and paralysis. They all look back to a pure, original moment in their life. Bertha evokes her flight from Ireland with Richard as her once chance of happiness, Beatrice wants to recall the passionate letters Richard sent from that same exile.
