Summary/Abstract: The inexorable adventure evoked in « The Granite and the Silence » by Marcel Schneider retraces the experience of nothingness of a tragic couple, in an « atrocious forest », the night of the equinox, a « troubled and stormy period when the destinies change » in order to accede to the universal secret. Driven by a terrible absence from themselves, the heroes accept to destroy their terrestrial appearance so that they are reborn eternals. This metamorphic transformation emerges through symbols for any approach of mystery is confined to silence.
