This contribution explores the process of intentional rewriting at work in Poisson d'or by J.M.G. Le Clézio, based on the narrative architecture of Désert, published seventeen years earlier. Through a structural analysis comparing the trajectories of the heroines Lalla and Laïla, we demonstrate how Le Clézio reused and modified the narrative elements of one of his own novels to adapt the same plot to the constraints of a more uprooted, more contemporary character who is nonetheless equally in search of identity. Three narrative elements common to both works are examined: the search for identity markers, the conflict between social assignment and freedom, and the Western experience as a path to exile or revelation. Using a methodological combination of Propp's approach and Bremond's theory of narrative possibilities, the study highlights that this phenomenon of rewriting, far from being a simple self-plagiarism of plot, constitutes a genuine aesthetic and poetic gesture, revealing the consistency of Le Clézio's themes and their ability to regenerate themselves according to figures and contexts.
