{"product_id":"9781965874202","title":"Six Films","description":"\u003cb\u003eThe English-language debut of a beautiful and beguiling cycle of experimental texts by the legendary Marguerite Duras.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the late 1970s, Marguerite Duras embarked on an experimental journey to expand the boundaries of writing and film. For Duras, writing need not be text on a page nor cinema merely images on a screen. \u003ci\u003eSix Films\u003c\/i\u003e is the result of her efforts to redefine the two arts in order to create a hybrid work. Taking narration, voiceovers, and dialogue from six of her films, Duras re-envisions them as extended prose poems and monologues, tangling with self-identity, personal relationships, colonialism, and expression as the celluoid images recede and the text becomes the film itself. Now available for the first time in English, \u003ci\u003eSix Films\u003c\/i\u003e is a document of an artist at the apex of her creative prowess.","brand":"Marguerite Duras","offers":[{"title":"MIT Press |  Paperback \/ softback | Trade paperback (US) |  2025-09-09","offer_id":46917420515583,"sku":"9781965874202","price":25.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_f22d9b59-08e2-4f2b-a8da-f476dfa68a01.jpg?v=1749047603","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781965874202","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
