Hardcover. NY, Columbia University Press, 2nd pr., 1990, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Good, Hardcover in a lightly worn dust jacket, 199 pages, b&w illustrations. Familiarity with Duras's films, novels, plays, and screenplays is essential for a full appreciation of this set of interviews (originally published in a special issue of Cahiers du Cinema ) reflecting Duras's views on her own work and that of many film directors. This translation (by Carol Barko)captures the informal, "fireside chat" style of the original, and the reader will find a wealth of information regarding Duras's personal views on politics, the media, and literary and film production. An abundance of photos and film stills is a valuable addition. Previous owner's inscription on the front fly leaf, otherwise clean.
