Wartime Notebooks by Marguerite Duras
Marguerite Duras was one of the leading intellectuals and novelists of post-war France. This work, retrieved from the papers she left at her death, consists of four notebooks written between 1943 and 1949 followed by ten previously unpublished short stories and autobiographical texts.
The work cuts to the bone: distressing and illuminating as the texts are about the nature of war and the self, and the eroticism of grief and violence..Enough to make you change your view of history - Fay Weldon * Fay Weldon *
Marguerite Duras was one of France's outstanding authors and playwrights of the second half of the 20th century, perhaps most famous for the film Hiroshima, Mon Amour. She came to be celebrated in late life for two bestselling works, published in Britain as THE LOVER and LA DOULEUR.
