In the summer of 1973, the journalist Xavière Gauthier interviewed the writer and filmmaker Marguerite Duras for an article in Le Monde. The meeting began a productive friendship between the two women that included the recording of four more interviews. They spoke of writing, literature, criticism, film, madness, sex, desire, alienation, Marxism, the situation of women, and their "oppression by the phallic class." Published in 1974 in France as Les Parleuses, the book became a classic statement of a positive and politically forceful feminist stance and an influential exploration of how Western culture has constructed gender roles and dealt with sexuality.

Les parleuses (Engl: Woman to Woman) Marguerite Duras faces a very strong personality, in Xavière Gauthier. The interviews in Les parleuses were published in 1974. They mainly deal with Duras work written in the 1960s, particularly Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein (1964), (Engl: The Ravishing of Lol Stein) and Détruire, dit-elle (Engl: Destroy, She Said). Les parleuses is one of Gauthier's earliest publications, after a volume of poetry and two volumes of essays.
In one of the early interviews, Gauthier confesses to Duras that she was totally captivated by her work, and after reading one of her books had to read them all. Throughout the interviews, Gauthier's strong personality remains overbearing, and she often dominates the interviews, while Duras tends to give short answers or even exclamations of surprise. Her ideas are strongly determined by the then current feminism, and feel somewhat dated.
In her later work, Xavière Gauthier came to play an important role in the feminist movement in France. She is mainly active as an editor and essayist. ( )
