That sounds like a fascinating book, and probably very funny too.

I have only read one Marguerite Duras, so far; and I did not particularly like it. the title of the book was Moderato Cantabile. But I'm willing to give it another chance with The Lover. It seems to be her most successful book.

A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennesse Williams
Deirdre of the Sorrows by J.M.Synge

I would have voted streetcar if i hadnt read it so many times and studied it in college. Great Play.
But i went for the sad Deirdre of the sorrows instead.
