Begins a series examining writing by exiles, whether physical, political, moral, religious, or social. Considers the work of the Rumanian poet who was born Benjamin Wexler in 1898, changed his name to Fondane after he migrated to France in 1923, and died in Auschwitz in 1944. The perspectives include the happy and melancholy Sisyphus, the mysteries of evil, before history in faith and doubt, his encounter with Gaston Bachelard, and his Jewishness.
