Colony， poor and mad.

This is Vietnam ruled and colonized by England， a region where everything is remote unimaginably and covered by darkness.

A white girl with long reddish brown hair wears a shabby fur cap of man， her high heels inlaid with gold belts having a soft color gilded by reflected light sunlight. Far away is Siam Mountain covered by fog， as gloomy as the limit between death and eternity. With the torrent of Mekong River flowing through her fair feet， she remembered her insane mother， brutal older brother， weak second-older brother and the old castle which is mistakenly said to belong to Louis Fourteenth. The man on the river bank drives a black car， the cigarette between his fingers flickering. They are lovers and cant stop loving.

This novel with somewhat autobiographic flavor comes from Marguerite Duras， a famous French novelist and playwright， who is good at scene switch and rendering. She played this technique in his movie incisively and vividly， for instance， the depiction of a trembling and helpless Chinese man in a new car of Limoux， dark streets in Vinh Long， a little lonely felt-hatted girl near flashing and mud river......She narrated a deep and hopeless story in another story with dark tones， the most helpless and hopeless love between a poor French girl and a rich Chinese boy. Under that specific social background， their encounter bore a destined tragic color at the very beginning so that the novel is teeming with some kind of strong emotion which goes into the deepest part of human heart directly and straightly.

is different from which has three stories narrated alternatively， while the former novel is closed at the required points of its intent. At the beginning， it affirms “me” in the autobiography； in the end， it uses some proper language of copying love. The feature of will-speak while not-speaking embodies exactly the glamour of Duras works. “Lover” is not only a kind of object， but also extending to a kind of relationship， “becoming a kind of creation function through the damage of significance”. Of course， it doesnt exclude the intent of amusing readers. It points to a kind of functional effect which can guide readers to seek the feeling and connotation more than normal people can find——and finally reach the concept formed by its implications， that is， so-called oscillation and fluctuation of implication.

The works was wrote in the time implication of introspection. At the beginning of the book， the author wrote：” what can I tell you？ At the time I was just 15 years and a half old”. That is in a ferry of Mekong River and that image continued all the time when crossing the river.

I was just 15 years and a half old……

This kind of narration via longitudinal paradigmatic relations makes the novel full of strong sense of frame so that every detail seems changed， but doesnt change actually and finally it forms a kind of inner-heart movie——which contains projections of multiple desires.

The publishing of made a sensational effect， which had an important relationship with bestseller transition. People have different opinion about whether it has “continuity”. Generally， reading is based on the approach of finishing after reading. It can keep the explainable， interconnected reading significance before your eyes and make it being shown more substantially and practically. So， what matters is not what you read， but what you choose to read. The books and works selected by one person represents his attitude toward reading. Love， death and hope are main themes of books. The Hopeless other side and death is also eternal， heavy and decadent tones， which constitutes . Reading this book will make you tear， sigh with emotion and also doubt. People aged differently will have different feeling， I believe， every one who have read this book may have the same feeling as whats described above.
