Description
La dernière guerre, Marguerite Duras lʹa vécue tout à la fois comme femme dont le mari avait été déporté, comme résistante, mais aussi, comme écrivain. Lucide, étonnée, désespérée parfois, elle a, pendant ces années, tenu un journal, écrit des textes que lui inspirait tout ce quʹelle voyait, ce quʹelle vivait, les gens quʹelle rencontrait ou affrontait.
