Abstract

The family is a very perceptible element in the novels Disgrace J.M Coetzee (2008),
The trial Franz Kafka (1983), The Human Stain Philip Roth (2000) and Mon coeur à
l’étroit Marie Ndiaye (2007). This article aims to analyze the unstable relation between the
characters and their families. In this regard, a comparative literary analysis is proposed
in order to present an alternative reading of this novels. This analysis focuses on three
elements mainly: the detachment phenomenon and the characters’ different
points of view, the debts transmission as a fatal a condemnation, and finally the
characters’ silent suffering as a resistance and fate symptom.
