On her arrival, as she is preparing to present her paper in Russian on Vietnam as a Victim of American Imperialism, she is abruptly kidnapped and taken to a small town on the western side of the Berlin Wall. There she falls under a strange spell of domestic and sexual boredom with her abductor, until one night she manages to escape on a train to Moscow... but mistakenly arrives in Paris. Alone, penniless, and in a completely foreign land, Anh (her false name) wanders the fringes of society, meeting a sex worker, another Vietnamese immigrant, a theatre troupe and other shadowy characters. But at the centre of her new life is Catherine Deneuve, the iconic film star whose films she loses herself in and who becomes the object of her obsessions.Crossing borders of language, nation, ethnicity, sexuality and art, The Naked Eye is a cinematic, incandescent novel that anticipates and embodies our twenty-first century nightmares and dreams....6851374The Naked Eye316385https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-naked-eye-9781803511733/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6744321/image.jpg?v=638707946524000000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259781803511733_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9781803511733_A young Vietnamese woman is invited to travel from Ho Chi Minh City to speak at an International Youth Conference in East Berlin.
