This thesis offers an analysis of the intertextual practices in Marie-Claire Blais's trilogy Soifs by which we explore the way the author integrates into her novels significant literary figures and texts in order to underline one of the trilogy's constant themes: the innocence and suffering of the victims of the twentieth century and of today. In this fiction saturated with literary and artistic references, literature appears as a standpoint on modern world and works are considered to be acts of creation that opposes to the "choeur de la destruction" the voices of writers and artists.
