Summary/Abstract: In 1979 Danilo Kiš left Belgrade and settled in Paris. Unlike Milan Kundera who was forced to move out of his country because he was deprived of his right to participate in public life, Kiš migrated to France of his own free will. His “voluntary exile” or “Joycelike exile,” was not only inspired by his quest for literature, but also by what he termed his “fate as a wandering Jew.” This paper focuses on Kiš’ “exile,” by analyzing his unpublished work “The Apatrid” (1980), and by examining how his understanding of the concept of “Central Europe” evolved.
