Hélène Lenoir is a contemporary French writer of novels and short stories who has been published by Les Éditions de Minuit since 1994. She writes about the difficulty to communicate within the family circle and about the words of conversation that remain in the mind of the character. This work aims at defining "the unspoken", starting from what is said, then moving on to what is not said, in a thematic rather than chronological approach. This study asks two main questions. The first one concerns the supposed link between Hélène Lenoir and Nathalie Sarraute: to what extent is Hélène Lenoir linked to Nathalie Sarraute? The second question deals with the originality of an experimental writer: where does Hélène Lenoir fit within the contemporary spectrum? The study examines how Hélène Lenoir writes the unspoken and how the character lives with the others in a world defined by its inability to communicate. The first chapter studies the way people talk to each other. It reveals the link with Nathalie Sarraute and comes to the conclusion that with his family or with his lover, the character communicates with violence or lament and is always in conflict. The second chapter draws a parallel with Sarraute sub-conversation. It reveals the sensations that prevent the character from speaking freely to the other in the dialogue and from expressing his own thoughts within the monologue. In the third chapter, we study the link between what the character has experienced in the past, the anguish he feels in his daily life and his inability to communicate. The last chapter analyses the exhaustion of the character who feels trapped in a love relationship and who is bound by his loneliness to live with the unspoken. ### | Hélène Lenoir is a contemporary French writer of novels and short stories who has been published by Les Éditions de Minuit since 1994.
