Annie Ernauxs work, wrote Richard Bernstein in the New York Times, represents a severely pared-down Proustianism, a testament to the persistent, haunting and melancholy quality of memory. In the New York Times Book Review, Kathryn Harrison concurred: Keen language and unwavering focus allow her to penetrate deep, to reveal pulses of love, desire, remorse.In this journal Ernaux turns her penetrating focus on those points in life where the everyday and the extraordinary intersect, where things seen reflect a private life meeting the larger world. From the war crimes tribunal in Bosnia to social issues such as poverty and AIDS; from the state of Iraq to the worlds contrasting reactions to Princess Dianas death and the starkly brutal political murders that occurred at the same time; from a tear-gas attack on the subway to minute interactions with a clerk in a store: Ernauxs thought-provoking observations map the worlds fleeting and lasting impressions on the shape of inner life.Annie Ernaux was born in 1940 in Lillebonne, France. Her autobiographical narrative, La Place, won the Prix Renaudot, and her books, A Womans Story and A Mans Place, were named New York Times Notable Books of the Year. Ernauxs most recent novel, Les Ann es, is widely considered one of her greatest works. Jonathan Kaplansky has translated numerous works, including H l ne Dorions novel Days of Sand and H l ne Riouxs novel Wednesday Night at the End of the World. Brian Evenson is a professor and director of the Literary Arts Program at Brown University. He is the author of Altmanns Tongue (available in a Bison Books edition) and, most recently, Last Days and Fugue State. About the AuthorAnnie Ernaux was born in 1940 in Lillebonne, France.
