They are contemporary Eastern European exiles, émigrés, or transnationals who lived their (early) childhood or adolescence under communism, left for various reasons their native countries and returned, physically and/or in writing, to revisit their countries after 1989. For different reasons and at different stages of their lives, they wrote highly interesting autobiographies, which are well worth exploring in detail. As my project attempts to demonstrate, life writing by contemporary Eastern European exiles can become the place par excellence of discussion and analysis for both the literary critic and the historian of post/communist regimes. To this end, I focus on how the autobiographers under analysis remember, record and represent both the contested pasts of their countries as well as the post/communist realities. The purposes to which autobiographical remembering lends itself in the post-communist context is another interest of my paper. Last but not least, I consider their autobiographical endeavours as particularly important because, being written in English and primarily addressed to a Western audience, they play a significant role in what I take to be a larger context of translating or recuperating Eastern European history and culture for an Anglo-American audience.生命書寫東歐流放文學後共產主義life writingEastern Europeexile literaturepost communism
