Flight is often conceived as a means of avoiding danger. It can also be seen fundamentally as a refusal of social and sexual categories and as resistance to the present order. By examining modern and contemporary literary works in French by authors on the margins from Rimbaud to Damasio, we will see how "la fuite" allows for the invention of oneself as well as for the construction of worlds by innovative formal means.
