Abstract
Abstract: James Joyce repeats in Exiles the theme of some familiar conflicts of his previous book (A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man) and his own life: the exile. The theme of exile would be sympathetic to Albert Camus, who in his explanatory essay, The Myth of Sisyphus, tells the reader about an exiled man who does endless work without a chance of being understood. This article aims to make a reading of the theme of exile in James Joyce’s drama, Exiles, in the light of Albert Camus’ The Myth of Sisyphus. The article is going to present some relevant aspects of James Joyce’s life to the topic; the relation of the myth to the theme of exile; as well as the reading of the theme of exile through The Myth of Sisyphus.
