TI - “Little noise remains in our ears”. A reading of Une petite fille silencieuse by James Sacré
AB - The book of poetry Une petite fille silencieuse, published by James Sacré to collect the texts he wrote after the death of his young daughter, is a deep interrogation about the silence of death. 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.
