In this 2001 book, Hughes explores how cultural centres require the peripheral, the outlawed and the deviant in order to define and bolster themselves. He analyses the hierarchies of cultural value which inform the work of six modern French writers: Pierre Loti, Paul Gauguin, Proust, Montherlant, Camus and Jean Genet.
