About This Item
Trade Paperback. Publisher: Penguin USA | 2023 | Trade Paperback | 64 p. | This book is brand new. | Language: Engelska --- Information regarding the book: WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE Annie Ernaux's most recent book, dazzling and breathtaking, published in France in 2022, is about her affair with a man 30 years her junior. "A sublime book." -Olivia de Lamberterie, Elle "Once again the work of the writer Annie Ernaux appears as both a rigorous study of life and an experiment. These fragments of living, however evanescent, are precious, irreplaceable, like a skin that never fades." -Caroline Montpetit in Le Devoir The Young Man is Annie Ernaux's account of her passionate love affair with A., a man some 30 years younger, when she was in her fifties. The relationship pulls her back to memories of her own youth and at the same time leaves her feeling ageless, outside of time- together with a sense that she is living her life backwards. Amidst talk of having a child together, she feels time running its course, and menopause approaching. The Young Man recalls Ernaux as the "scandalous girl" she once was, but is composed with the mastery and the self-assurance she has achieved across decades of writing. It was first published in France in 2022. | We have this book in our store house - please allow for a couple of extra days for delivery.
