Abstract
Marie-Claire Blais seeks to innovate, throughout her career, her 'antimimetique' writing. Her extensive pentalogy - Soifs (1995), Dans la foudre et la lumiere (2001), Augustino et le choeur de la destruction (2005), Naissance de Rebecca a l’ere des tourments (2008), Mai au bal des predateurs (2010) – offers a complex existential questioning of the actual situation of the man. The problem of Evil and Good, which is in the heart of questions and answers, is treated with an original narration, transforming Virginia Woolf’s stream of consciousness. This innovation, however, is rooted in the tradition, namely its baroque poetics and its community orientation, both attached to the affirmation / negation of the catholic heritage that marked Quebec.
