A 15-year-old French school girl has an affair with the son of a wealthy Chinese business man. Doomed from the start, the lovers are pulled in opposite directions by racial, social, and political conflicts. This is a largely autobiographical novel of Duras, her family, and the political climate of 1930’s Saigon.
