Literature composes grammars of cry and grammars of listening. His language does not consist so much in representing the world of things as in presenting the language through which those things are represented and the violence that inhabits it. This book seeks to analyze the network of violence and writing from a perspective that is both literary and philosophical, seeking to give voice to the promise that language inhabits. However, if violence can be witnessed, is it not at the cost of the destruction of language?
