À la sortie du lycée Condorcet, Paul est terrassé par une boule de neige lancée par son idole, Dargelos, le coq du collège. Trop faible, il n'ira plus en classe, so sœur Élisabeth le soignera dans leur chambre, navire imaginaire qui, tous les soirs, appareille pour des contrées lointaines. Ni Gérard qui aime Élisabeth, ni Agathe qui aime Paul n'empêcheront le frère et la sœur de s'adorer et de se déchirer.Cette œuvre clef de Jean Cocteau est un conte fantastique, un roman de poète dont le récit devient chant. La chambre est un sanctuaire où l'on célèbre un culte à l'amour et à la mort. Il y a une prêtresse, il y a un trésor, il y a des victimes sacrifiées. Il y a envoûtement et malédiction.
