“I wanted to forget this girl.To really forget her, that is to say, to no longer want to write about her.To no longer think that I have to write about her, her desire, her madness, her idiocy and her pride, her hunger and her dried up blood.I never got there.”
Annie Ernaux plunges back into the summer of 1958, that of her first night with a man, at the colony of S in the Orne.Night whose shock wave propagated violently in his body and on his existence for two years.Based on indelible images from her memory, photos and letters written to her friends, she questions this girl that she has been in a back and forth between yesterday and today.
