Translation:
A Woman's Story
A Woman's Story
Annie Ernaux
2003 Edition
"The story of every daughter who loses a mother..." - The New York Times Book Review



Simple Passion
Simple Passion
Annie Ernaux
2003 Edition
"Ernaux's tale of an all-consuming love affair can leave you as drained as an early Godard movie.... She shapes her story with notes sharp enough to start you thinking through the novels in your own life." - Greil Marcus in Artforum



Happening
Happening
Annie Ernaux
2001 Edition
In 1963, Annie Ernaux, 23 and unattached, realizes she is pregnant. Shame arises in her like a plague: Understanding that her pregnancy will mark her and her family as social failures, she knows she cannot keep that child.


Exteriors
Exteriors
Annie Ernaux
1996 Edition
Taking the form of random journal entries over seven years, Exteriors captures the feeling of contemporary living on the outskirts of Paris. Poignantly lyrical, chaotic, and strangely alive.


A Man's Place
A Man's Place
Annie Ernaux
1992 Edition
"An austere but poignant account of those ties that bind as well as separate fathers from daughters.... Moving and memorable.—Kirkus Reviews
