An autobiographical novel by Marguerite Duras, told in fragmentary, poetic prose. Set in colonial Indochina in the 1920s, it follows a poor fifteen-year-old French girl who begins a passionate love affair with a wealthy Chinese merchant.
In the book, Indochina, childhood, a poor family without a father, a self-confident girl, early passions, the arrival of a stranger in a small, remote place, the desolateness of rice fields, and much, much more await you.
As a storm traps French tourists in a small Spanish town—where a fugitive seeks refuge following a crime of passion—Maria, amidst the desperation of others and the revelation of her husband’s infidelity, confronts her own inner fractures.
