‘Very Early in My Life’ — Marguerite Duras Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Literary Tee — Oversized Tee

“Very early in my life it was too late.” Marguerite Duras opened her 1984 novel The Lover with this line, folding a whole ruined chronology into eight words about a girlhood in colonial Indochina that aged past its years too soon. She admits what few sentences will: that some lives arrive already late, and carry it from the start.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
