| Summary: | In Le Clézio, the figures of in-between-two are paradoxes operating to make litterature a space of doubt. The weaving of patterns contributes to a paradoxal aesthetics of sparkle and link. This aesthetics is also based on an ethics of bareness, an election of nothing, which we analyze in short stories written in 1973, 1978-1980 and 2001 (Mydriase, Three holly towns, The God’alive Montain et The Child under the bridge) to show how these texts are read from the standpoint of deconstruction and chaos theory. In between black night and blinding light, Le Clézio favours sparkles, gleams, and survivals or revivals.
