THE EASY LIFE - MARGUERITE DURAS KARTONIERT (TB)

'One of the 20th century's greatest thinkers and prose stylists' New York Times    'A novel of
the disquieting contours of family  and of the mind  and of life unceasing even in the midst of
death by one of the most important  visionary writers of all time' Amina Cain  author of
Indelicacy     WITH A FOREWORD BY KATE ZAMBRENO   There's nothing to do about boredom  I'm
bored  but one day I won't be bored anymore. Soon I'll know that it's not even worth the
trouble. We'll have the easy life.   Twenty-five-year-old Francine Veyrenattes  confined to the
family farm  already feels that life is passing her by. But after Francine lets slip a terrible
secret  culminating in the violent deaths of her brother and uncle  her world is shattered.  
Fleeing the farm for the seaside  Francine finds herself disintegrating. Lying in the sun with
her toes in the sand  she restlessly wishes for things to be somehow easier  to have a life
worth living.   But then the calm and quiet is broken yet again - by another tragedy and a
senseless death  in which Francine finds herself implicated. Cast out of paradise  and stranded
between her home and the rest of the world  she must confront her rapidly dissolving sense of
self if she is to find a way to survive.   'It's a masterpiece  and a little known  if not
unknown  masterpiece . Any serious reader of this author's work must begin with this novel'
