Title
Análisis del exilio en Brian Moore
Abstract
Chapter 4 of the author's dissertation, titled "El exilio como marginación social y espiritual," deals with Brian Moore's (1921-1999) novel, The Luck of Ginger Coffey (1960). Moore lived in Montreal from 1948 to 1958, and live part of each year in Canada up to his death. The Luck of Ginger Coffey has been described as "a robust, funny, sometimes tragic tale of one unforgettable Irish immigrant to Montreal. Buoyed by unfailing optimism, Ginger confronts the ugly realities of life in the New World. Jobs are scarce, people often inhuman. And dreams of glory do not offer any lasting escape from the hard pinch of poverty. In spite of the battering he receives in his struggle for survival, Ginger Coffey emerges a true hero – the 'little' man who can be defeated by anything, except life itself."
