The poet establishes complicated links between silence and time, inventing a subjective and singular temporality, departing from the law of chronology ; furthermore, he avoids asserting the existence of the next world while hoping to hear the voice of his dead daughter. This is why he tries to hear the silence in the words themselves, defining language as the very place of a vain pursuit of a meaningful silence.</p> UR - https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/cahiers-erta/article/peu-de-bruit-nous-reste-dans-loreille-lecture-dune-petite-fille-silencieuse-de-james-sacre
