Exilic

“Exilic” (eg-ZIL-ik) – from the Latin for “wanderer” – pertains to exile or banishment. It can describe people who have been forcibly removed from their native country, as well as those who have voluntarily chosen to live someplace else.

Example (as used by Joseph O’Neill in The Atlantic): “[James Joyce and Samuel Beckett] were glamorously exilic, highly photogenic, eminently stern of artistic purpose.”
