Description: The work of Bernanos novel is rooted in the replay of a large body of which he transfigures Carmelite mystical intuition in a poetic abandonment able to understand and appease the metaphysical concerns of his century. His invention thus reveals a literary aesthetic that confronts the silence and recreates a sublime rhetoric to give a singular romantic language, at once sweet and dramatic, depicting a climate of abandonment of God and abandonment to God which often transcends expectations of reading.
