Annie Ernaux

Exteriors - WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE (eBook, ePUB)

Übersetzer: Leslie, Tanya

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Taking the form of random journal entries over the course of seven years, Exteriors concentrates on the ephemeral encounters that take place just on the periphery of a person's lived environment. Ernaux captures the feeling of contemporary living on the outskirts of Paris: poignantly lyrical, chaotic, and strangely alive. Exteriors is in many ways the most ecstatic of Ernaux's books - the first in which she appears largely free of the haunting personal relationships she has written about so powerfully elsewhere, and the first in which she is able to leave the past behind her.

Rezensionen

Exteriors is honest, genuine and skillfully executed. Columbus Dispatch

Ernaux's writings walk a tightrope between art and confession, immersing us in a territory bounded on one side by commitment and on the other by desire. Newsday

Journal du dehors (Exteriors) is the opposite of an intimate diary. It shows a woman observing, without scorn or pity, the world out of which she came . . . . It is the text of a writer for whom the text is, simultaneously, interiority and provocation. Telerama
