Abstract
Based on testimonies and images reminiscent of the Khmer Rouge genocide, the article analyzes the literary work of Rithy Panh, an artistic volume that is almost always ignored given the importance of his work as a filmmaker. The present text shows how these literary works are constituted as reminiscent exercises in which a historical transmission is erupted in an incessant dialogue between imagination and reality, between simple description and poetic invention, obstinately seeking to constitute a heuristic language for testimony to the end.
