Köp båda 2 för 325 krErnaux has inherited de Beauvoirs role of chronicler to a generation. Margaret Drabble, New Statesman A profound and beautiful examination of the impenetrable wall that time erects between the self we are, and the selves we once were. I know of no other book that so vividly illustrates the frustrations and the temptations of that barrier, and our heartache and longing in trying to breach it. Annie Ernaux is one of my favorite contemporary writers, original and true. Always after reading one of her books, I walk around in her world for months. Sheila Heti, author of Pure Colour Another deeply felt, fearlessly honest exploration of female desire, shame, and intellectual passion from the incomparable Annie Ernaux. Sigrid Nunez, author of The Friend Annie Ernaux writes memoir with such generosity and vulnerable power that I find it difficult to separate my own memories from hers long after Ive finished reading. In A Girls Story she detangles an adolescence rife with desire and shame, an era of both internal and external debasement. Ernaux wisely ventures into the gray areas of her memories; she doesnt attempt to transcend their power, nor to even understand them, but to press them firmly into this diamond of a book. Catherine Lacey, author of Pew In A Girls Story, Ernaux cements her position as a writer of immense depth and grace. Sarah Gerard, author of Sunshine State: Essays Ernaux is an unusual memoirist: she distrusts her memory... Ernaux does not so much reveal the pastshe does not pretend to have any authoritative access to itas unpack it. Madeleine Schwartz, New Yorker
