In the five short pieces collected in this volume, she explores experiences that had an emotional impact on her and that inspired her to write. These vary from the death of a pilot in World War II, to the death of a fly, to an art exhibition. Two of the pieces were made into documentary films, and one was originally a short film. Both autobiographical and fictional, like much of her work, Writing displays Duras’s unique worldview and sensitive insight in her simple and poetic prose.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: FictionRelease Year: 2011 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
