Émigré literature refers to works written by authors who have left their home country due to political upheaval, conflict, or other reasons, and now live elsewhere. This literature often explores themes of displacement, identity, nostalgia, and longing for one's homeland. It provides insight into the émigré’s personal experiences, cultural conflicts, and the struggles of maintaining their cultural identity abroad. Such works can also reflect a critique of their homeland's politics or society. Overall, émigré literature offers a poignant perspective on exile, belonging, and the complex process of cultural preservation away from one's roots.
