Summary/Abstract: The novel presents a variety of writings of silence; but we limit ourselves, in the context of the present work, to the most relevant aspects, namely interruptions in narratives, narrative ellipses and point of suspension as the particular language of silence. These three modalities nevertheless serve a prolix discourse, and are innovate. Suddenly the novel exemplifies what contemporary literature calls the anti-novel.
