French writer Jean Marie Gustave Le Clezio is the winner of the 2008 Nobel Prize in literature. At the end of the 20th century, he was rated as "the greatest living French writer". The theme of "wandering" is a frequently found in his works, and he is also famous for his special narrative technique-"stray" narrative. In Le Clezio’s work, he pays more attention to the margins, confusion and perplexity of the vulnerable group, therefore he often uses children’s vulnerable and marginalized perspective, to write his meditations on the experiences and the feelings of life.After analyzing Chinese and Western "wandering" narrative literature works, I used the narrative theory as the basis of the research on Le Clezio’s children’s perspective novel. On the basis of fully grasping the narrative perspective, narrative structure and the homeless children’s unique image in the text, we shall proceed to Le Clezio’s "wandering" narrative’analysis and his different methods of "stray" narrative from the perspective of the adult and children’s literature, aiming to explore the real meaning of the "stray" narrative for Le Clezio’s literary creation.Le Clezio is both of the adult and children’s literature writer. "Wandering stars", "Racing" are the excellent works of adult literature, at the same time he also writes for children’s, such as the exciting "Story of Mondo", etc. The transformation of the double identity (adult and children’s literature writer) brought his "wandering" narrative it’s unique subtle charm. The comparison of such "crossover" between adult and children’s literature, allows us to explore Le Clezio’s "wandering" narrative techniques from different perspectives and in the different categories of his works.Homeless children in stray narrative combine writer’s special childhood experience and acquired stray temperament, are compared to the narration about homeless children and their personal features formed during stray life.Stray narrative analysis of the narrative perspective and narrative structure analyze Le Clezio’s narrative perspective and narrative structure. The narrative perspective mainly appears in the perspective of children’s stray view. The analysis of children’s several common perspectives is used in the text. The narrative structures discussed upon are based on the two common narrative structures in children’s literature, namely the "home-away from home structure" and the "nested structure".Stray narrative comparative study in adult novels and children’s fiction compare the inner wandering narrative text of Le Clezio’s adult and children’s literature.Come to the conclusion that, adult and children’s literatures would require writers to use various artistic methods in order to achieve different effect.
