Duras: double aspect of exploitation

In this article, in a comparative study, the themes of exploitation and violence are dealt with in Margaret Dura's two works, Adam on the Pacific Ocean and the Consular. First, the status of the native inhabitants and that of the exploiters are presented and then the surface structure of the city is analyzed. We first harbor at the conclusion that the exploiter and the exploited equally suffer. Then, we will focus on the issue that the violence resulted from exploitation has so profoundly affected the author's mind that one can detect its effect on her style of writing.
