La Sororisation comme jeu dans Mes bien chères sœurs de Chloé Delaume

This article examines Chloé Delaume’s Mes bien chères sœurs (Citation2019) as a laboratory for inventing “sororisation,” understood less as a given definition of sorority than as a process: how to create sorority through literature. It argues that Delaume conceives sorority simultaneously as a militant tool and as a specifically literary construction, structured by the metaphor of play. The study is organized around three forms of “jeu”: first, a play on language and on the literary canon, which are deconstructed and “demasculinised” through citation, parody and lexical experimentation; second, a play on pronouns that shifts from an autobiographical “je” to a collective “nous” emerging in the wake of #MeToo and opened toward the inclusive “iels”; third, a play on genres that mobilizes autofiction and metaliterary commentary. By exposing the fictionality of dominant narratives and proposing alternative figures and plots, Delaume’s hybrid writing sketches a feminist, horizontal narrative model that actively produces sorority.
