Duras is a famous contemporary French novelist, playwright, journalist and film artist. "The Lover" is an autobiographical work. It is based on the life of French colonists in Vietnam. It describes the deep and hopeless love between a poor French girl and a wealthy Chinese young master. The writing touches on some of the most fundamental and secret qualities of human nature, which is thought-provoking. The emotional power that surges from beginning to end in the novel even surpasses the superb writing skills and is extremely contagious.
