«La douleur» is Marguerite Duras's autobiographical account, published by Folio in paperback (217 pages, in French).
«La douleur» is a composite text whose core is the notebooks Marguerite Duras wrote while awaiting the return of her husband, Robert Antelme, deported to a concentration camp. Around that autobiographical diary, five more texts are gathered that distance themselves from the biographical, such as «L’ortie brisée» and «Aurelia Paris».
The original work was published in 1985; this edition is volume 2469 of the Folio collection.
For readers of memoirs and twentieth-century French literature, especially those interested in the experience of the Second World War and deportation.
Marguerite Germaine Marie Donnadieu, known as Marguerite Duras, was a French novelist, playwright, screenwriter, essayist, and experimental filmmaker. Her script for the film Hiroshima mon amour (1959) earned her a nomination for Best Original Screenplay at the Academy Awards.
