Summer Rain by Marguerite Duras

An unemployed immigrant and seven children live in a condemned house in a suburb of Vitry. They survive on government grants and charitable handouts. The children are not sent to school, but instead wander through the town. Then one summer the eldest, Ernesto, is given a book.

Marguerite Duras was one of Europe’s most distinguished writers. The author of many novels and screenplays, she is perhaps best known outside France for her filmscript Hiroshima Mon Amour and her Prix Goncourt-winning novel THE LOVER, also filmed. Her other books include LA DOLEUR, BLUE EYES BLACK HAIR, SUMMER RAIN and THE NORTH CHINA LOVER. Born in Indochina in 1914, Marguerite Duras died in 1996.
