SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Dedicated to Duras' companion with whom she spent her last decade of life, Yann Andrea Steiner is a haunting dance between two parallel stories of love and solitude: the love between Duras and the young Yann Andrea and a seaside romance observed - or imagined - by the narrator between a camp counselor and an orphaned camper, a Holocaust survivor who witnessed his sister's murder at the hands of a German soldier. Memory blurs into desire as the summer of 1980 flows into 1944. An enigmatic elegy of history, creation, and raw emotion."--Jacket.
