Description The main goal of the current study was to compare and analyse main characters in chosen novels by three authors of Réunion at the base of insularity. The notion of insularity appears in the solitude of children in novels La Morte saison and Le Bleu des vitraux by Jean Lods, Les Faims d’enfance by Axel Gauvin and La Nuit cyclone by Jean-François Samlong. The choice of child as a main character point out important social issues, furthermore these heros have something common: they have experienced some kind of suffering coming from their differences. The findings enable to constitute a possible typology of children’s main characters for further research.
