Summary/Abstract: In its exploration of the images of Montreal in Emile Ollivier’s fiction, the article discusses the topics of alienation, hybridity and identity, central to immigrant literature of Quebec. In order to highlight new imaginary strategies that aim at regaining ownership of Montreal, the author investigates how “La Brûlerie” transgresses and fictionalizes the topics of dispossession and fragmentation.
