it's kat! 🇵🇸✊it  was during that same decade that she joined the french communist party, the PCF. no wonder the main theme of the novel to which i alluded at the  start ('abahn sabana david') is the art of refusal & the freedom of  a defiant 'NO!' <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/novel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#novel</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/illustration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#illustration</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/abahnSabanaDavid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#abahnSabanaDavid</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/france" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#france</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/margueriteDuras" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#margueriteDuras</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/literature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#literature</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/botd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#botd</a>

it's kat! 🇵🇸✊duras was a master of written  dialogue, crafting it in such a way that the space between her words  informed the story as much as or more than what she spelled out. as a  human being, she was remarkable: during WWII, she worked for the vichy  government whilst simultaneously belonging to an active french resistance cell. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/margueriteDuras" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#margueriteDuras</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/frenchResistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#frenchResistance</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/sketch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sketch</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#author</a>
