This article looks at narrative approach as an integrative method of interpretation, applicable across disciplines. The emphasis is on basic methodological assumptions related to the use of the concept of narrative as an interpretative tool, with an emphasis on the role of closure in both structuring and interpreting given narratives. With the help of narrative method, three kinds of migrant narratives are analyzed: a collection of personal narratives of exiles from the former Yugoslavia; an essay on study of migration and exile, which is treated here as a piece of narrative; and a novel on exile.
