El pescador de cangrejos

Adéle Dinant is a young Frenchwoman that works as guarding to the sons of Mr. Duong Thai Loan in a property this one owns in Vietnam, that has been returned to him after the departure by the French occupiers. Loan is a man full of prejudices that was reduced from his condition of rich owner to that of servant by the colonizers, whom he despises. In her youth Mademoiselle Dinant was the youngest daughter to a collaborator with the Résistance, in love at the same time with the SS colonel that held her up in her home. The Crab Fisher is a novel brimming with adventures, love, disappointments and human passion, and it is written in a delicious style, brilliant, modern and romantic.
