Duras-Blanchot Community or the “step further towards the abyss of truth”

Duras and Blanchot form a community of poetical, intellectual and political understanding. Poetical, because they explored the secret of silence, which opened the way for modern literature; intellectual and political, as together with their friends from the Rue Saint-Benoît, they shared many theoretical and political battles around a new conception of being in common. This community space will be questioned, letting these two voices speak, them which never ceased to call and answer one another.
