Book Reviews of The Lover
Book Review: This is a book for those who have a unrequited love
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this book. It's not written from the movie THE LOVER 1992 but from the author's own view of her life in Indochina as a young teen and her family and her Chinese lover. It's a beautiful love story but sad in the end. If you have a love who you could not be with in life, then you could relate to this book. It's also great to watch the movie THE LOVER which the movie was based on. Not for children or young teen because of subject matter.
Summary of The Lover
Back in print in paperback, "an exquisite jewel of a novel, as multifaceted as a diamond, as seamless and polished as a pearl" ("Boston Herald"). This edition includes an Introduction by Maxine Hong Kingston that looks back at Duras's world from an intriguing new perspective--that of a visitor to Vietnam today.Duras, Marguerite Books
