A masterpiece. [T]he story of a woman in the twentieth century who has lived fully, sought out pain and happiness equally and then committed her findings truthfully on paper. Her life is our inheritance. The Guardian [N]ot a confession but a kind of personal epistemology. ... One way to read Ernauxs book is as an attempt to understand that opaque, painful, essential process of becoming. The New Yorker [T]he little indignities and abjections of both obsession and abandonmentErnaux tells with calm, almost tranquillized matter-of-factness [that] feels like determination, truth to self, clarity of purpose. Washington Post Annie Ernaux concisely charts telling moments during adolescence love, marriage, career, and motherhood St. Louis Post Dispatch I Remain in Darkness A Woman's Story The Possession Exteriors A Man's Place Shame Description Ernaux courageously bears witness both to complex multiple truths of family relationships and to the fierce persistence of family love. Washington Post [A] tender, tough and moving tribute to her mother's life and death. . . Ernaux attempts to explainor, perhaps, merely to understandthe complex roots and blossoms of a mother/daughter relationship. Washington Times A striking portrait of a woman after a love affair has ended. Annie Ernaux pulls the reader through every step of jealousy, of a womans need to know who has replaced her in a lost beloveds life. Taking the form of journal entries over the course of seven years, Exteriors concentrates on the ephemeral encounters that take place just on the periphery of a persons lived environment. Narrating his slow ascent towards material comfort, Ernaus cold observation in A Mans Place reveals the shame that haunted her father throughout his life. The careful, unflinching specificities of Shame give voice to a resonant and universal truth; and Ernaux's particular discomfort is, most profoundly, that of being human.New York Times Book Review
