| description | Although Marguerite Duras is often associated with the « Nouveau Roman », she has always refused any label. Covering the literary genres and moving from poetic narrative to filmic and dramatic texts, her original poetics is shaped by the dialectics of live experience and controlled language, the renewal of questioned writing, the rarefaction of action, the claim of a textual opening, the disintegration of meaning, the photographic metaphor and the omnipresence of the gaze. As for music, it literally and metaphorically fits into its thematic-narrative geometry: the musical architecture, the repetitive structure (reinforced by the « mise en abyme »), the scenography of desire (the ball and the « triangulation »), the art of counterpoint, the duration or the singular tempo, and the presence of summer. Under the suffocating heat of long, idle days filled with silences, the atmosphere becomes unbreathable, except for Duras Song. |
