Wednesday, July 22nd @ 7:30 pm: The Modernist Book Group discusses Marguerite Duras’s THE LOVER

Please join us for another illuminating evening as we read and discuss The Lover by Marguerite Duras. From the back cover:

Set in the prewar Indochina of Marguerite Duras’s childhood, this is the haunting tale of a tumultuous affair between an adolescent French girl and her Chinese lover. In spare yet luminous prose, Duras evokes life on the margins of Saigon in the waning days of France’s colonial empire, and its representation in the passionate relationship between two unforgettable outcasts.

We hope to see you here!
