A Woman's Story
On 7 April 1986, Annie Ernaux's mother, after years of suffering from Alzheimer's disease, died in a retirement home in the suburbs of Paris. Shocked by this loss which, despite her mother's condition, she had refused to fathom, Ernaux embarks on a daunting journey back through time in an effort to recover the different facets of a woman whose openness to the world and appetite for reading created the conditions for the author's own social ascent. Mirroring A Man's Place, in which she narrates her father's slow rise to material comfort, A Woman's Story explores the ambiguous and unshakeable bond between mother and daughter, its fluctuation over the course of their lives, the alienating worlds that separate them and the inescapable truth that we must lose the ones we love. In this quietly powerful tribute to the last thread connecting her to the world out of which she was born, Ernaux attempts to do her mother the greatest justice she can: to portray her as the individual she was.

A Girl's Story
'I too wanted to forget that girl. Really forget her, that is, stop yearning to write about her. Stop thinking that I have to write about this girl and her desire and madness, her idiocy and pride, her hunger and her blood that ceased to flow. I have never managed to do so.' In A Girl's Story, her latest book, Annie Ernaux revisits the summer of 1958, spent working as a holiday camp instructor in Normandy, and recounts the first night she spent with a man. When he moves on, she realizes she has submitted her will to his and finds that she is a slave without a master. Now, sixty years later, she finds she can obliterate the intervening years and return to consider this young woman whom she wanted to forget completely. In writing A Girl's Story, which brings to life her indelible memories of that summer, Ernaux discovers that here was the vital, violent and dolorous origin of her writing life, built out of shame, violence and betrayal.

Meisjesherinneringen
Annie Ernaux duikt diep in de zomer van 1958, de zomer waarin ze voor het eerst met een man naar bed ging, tijdens een vakantiekamp in Normandië. Die nacht bracht een schokgolf teweeg die twee jaar lang in haar lichaam en in haar leven zou blijven natrillen. Met gebruikmaking van de onuitwisbare beelden aangedragen door haar herinneringen, van foto’s en van brieven die ze schreef aan vriendinnen, onderzoekt ze het meisje dat ze is geweest, in een onverbiddelijke slingerbeweging tussen vroeger en nu. ‘Schitterend autobiografisch relaas over opgroeien in de provincie in de jaren vijftig. Het relaas van een beschermd opgegroeid achttienjarig meisje. Enerzijds het traject van “de” vrouw in de jaren vijftig, anderzijds de geschiedenis van een specifieke vrouw, verankerd in die tijd, in Frankrijk, in de wereld.’ – NRC Handelsblad

The Young Man
In her latest work, Annie Ernaux recounts a relationship with a student thirty years her junior – an experience that transforms her, briefly, back into the ‘scandalous girl’ of her youth. At once stark and tender, The Young Man is a taut encapsulation of Ernaux’s relationship to time, memory and writing.
