Addendum to A Dam Against the Pacific

Marguerite Duras we tightens the cover of a dam against the Pacific thirty-five years later redorant then the coat of arms of the man she called Monsieur Jo, she now called more in The Lover "Man of Cholen "and offers us a way of Lolita, but told from the point of view of the girl. With age, the recognition and maturity, Marguerite Duras no longer feels the need to romanticize or develop his autobiographical memories as in the dam. Here she allowed to run his memories and feelings about how the peaceful course of the Mekong and we book, not gross because age helping, they are widely sieved omissions, hypertrophy and various embellishments but give a real sense of authenticity, because we feel that it no longer seeks to please. Looks rather an addendum, a literary testament on his life Sadec in Indochina, for his family for when she will not. Also, I advise the reader to first read A Dam Against the Pacific, which is sort of the cornerstone on which the author wishes to clarify or modifications (including the fact that at the time she wrote the Dam his mother and older brother are not dead yet and therefore can not admit in the book that she hid them throughout his life, hence the truncated role of Mr. Jo, who finds acclaim in The Lover while his brother Joseph suffered, he rather demotion and becomes less endearing).
Nevertheless, we must warn the reader that at no time we do not find the construction and linearity of a dam against the Pacific. The Lover is a collection of memories often pell-mell as our brain sometimes tangled forgetting to classify. Stylistically, these discontinuities and this way not to name the main characters create a certain mystery and have a lyrical and nostalgic undeniable potential.
