Ma qui, nelle pagine di Annie Ermeaux, siamo ben oltre la vergogna: la figlia sente di far parte di un altro mondo e un’altra epoca, che non ha più nulla da spartire con il medioevo del padre.AnnieErnaux[Imagesanimées] / Timothy Miller,réal. ;BenoitCanu, comp. ; AnnieErnaux,participante. – laCinquième;Paris : MK2 TV, 2000

Her father is focussed on appearing in good standing to the community, making a success of his small grocery shop. One can already soon imagine how this leads to a divide between him and his daughter. I felt the portrayal, while being factual, to be emotional. As a reader you feel the distance between generations, how people are shaped by their upbringing and can't transcend these bounds even with those theoretically closest to them. At times I recognise the same with my father, who almost always ask me if I still have a job, himself having grown up in the eighties with hundreds of rejection letters, while I completely feel different about the subject. L'Événement (2021), released in English as Happening and directed by Audrey Diwan, received the Golden Lion at the 2021 Venice Film Festival. [49] In British English (I can’t speak to others) ‘one’ has class connotations, so that’s probably why that wasn’t used. It sounds upper class. That might have been the concern.Although Ernaux is always billed as autofiction, I read it as autobiography, particularly as the editions I have are white Fitzcarraldo ones which are supposed to be non-fiction. That’s by the by, really. I think she’s such an impressive writer – her prose is so deceptively simple yet conveys so much, and in short books. Such a good author.

In distinguished society, grief at the loss of a loved one is expressed through tears, silence and dignity. The social conventions observed by my mother, and for that matter the rest of the neighborhood, had nothing to do with dignity." Il y a quelque chose de gênant dans cette littérature qui veut s'imposer par sa désespérance indécente. Ferniot, Christine (1 November 2005). "1983: La place par Annie Ernaux". L'EXPRESS (in French).

There have been other firsts in the Nobel canon recently: Alice Munro (2013) is predominantly a writer of short stories; Svetlana Alexievich (2015) is a journalist whose “novels in voices” bring together the testimony of others – neither form had been honoured by the prize previously. Combined with Ernaux’s win, these landmarks suggest not only that women in particular are pushing the boundaries of literature but that a certain kind of intimate experience, skilfully conveyed, can have impact on a majestic scale.Jellenik, Cathy, Rewritingrewriting:MargueriteDuras, AnnieErnaux, and MarieRedonnet. –Bern :Peter Lang, 2007 Le malheur, c'est qu'aux rares passages où cette dernière décide de se lancer dans de petites prouesses de style, elle y devient aussitôt inintelligible et inaudible.
