Sumario:Chapter 2 of the book "In Language and in Love: Marguerite Duras: The Unspeakable" is presented. The chapter deals with the subjective implication of the je/elle dichotomy in the autobiographical novel "L'Amant," by Marguerite Duras. It explores a consciously split narrator who manipulates her narrative stance by the subtle interchange of two pronouns, je and elle. Also discussed are the implications of the dual pronouns in connection with the constitution of an author/narrator through a self-recognized obsession with writing.
